In the proposed system we are designing a robot to perform an agriculture tasks and monitor the storage area. India population is about 17.7% of the total world population. India is second most populated country in the world. According to food and agriculture organization (FAO) India’s 70% of rural households still depend primarily on agriculture for their livelihood. Nowadays, millions of farmers leaving farming and villages in search of better opportunities in cities because of agricultural problems like more labor wages, wastage of seeds during seeding, theft in storage areas, lack of irrigation, more time requirement for every operations, lower yield of crops and so on. We are designing a system to overcome all these problems. In our proposed system, we are using HC-06 Bluetooth module for controlling the robot. The proposed robot can perform the tasks like ploughing the land using position feedback servo motor, seeding using DC motor and relay, irrigation using submersible pump and along with one of the special task like intruder monitoring using PIR sensor and GSM module. Intruder monitoring is performed automatically using line sensors. Keywords— Bluetooth, DC motor, GSM module, PIR sensor, Relay, Servo motor, submersible pump.
