ABSTRACT:

Harrowing operation is carried out to remove the weeds between the crops after the one or one and half months from ridges. The operation is mainly done in soya jawar, wheat etc. till today’s date this operation was done manually which required lot of human effort so, we decided to go for engine operated in ridges & furrows without human efforts.

About 70 percent population in this field required modern harrowing equipment in agricultural industry so it can be produced commercially produced.
