DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING OF MANUALLY OPERATED MULTIPURPOSE RICE TRANSPLANTER

Agriculture have a large contribution in Indian economy. It is one of largest source of employment. Though manually rice transplanting gives us a uniform crop it is expensive and it requires lot of labour also involving lot of hard work [4]. Lots of efforts has been made in design and modification of this machine to make the rice transplanting system more economical comparatively [7]. This study is concentrated on Design & Manufacturing of Manually Operated Multipurpose Rice Transplanter by providing supplementary arrangement like grubbing,lawn mower for limited areas in Indian rice cultivation especially for Konkan region. The proposed work can be done by removing the complexity in the mechanism,reduced cost and reduce weight of today�s rice transplanting machines. https://www.ijiert.org/paper-details?paper_id=14114
