At present there is a huge scarcity of skilled manpower in agricultural sector. Farmers have to look for the state of the art technology to carry out the cultivation activities to improve the productivity. A rapid progress in the technology has led to the development of modern techniques in farming and utilizes innovative technologies to overcome problems associated with the conventional methods. This paper addresses the design and fabrication of a seed sowing vehicle which is controlled by a microcontroller and powered by solar panel.
