Developing means of farming and agriculture is the reason humans live in the world they do today. It is a necessary means of survival, without which there would be famines all over the world. For thousands of years, agricultural was a natural process that did not harm the land it was done on. Environmental impacts caused due to the harmful effects of human activities are a worldwide problem causing global warming and climate change. Too much dependence on the usage of chemical inputs and the burning of farm wastes was identified as the major ones. Since this issues are threat to mankind and to the existing agriculture equipment’s and the shredder machine is one among them. The machines available in the market are powered via fossil fuels which is also contributing to global warming, this directed the researchers to design and develop a Solar-Powered Shredder machine which can be efficiently operated using solar energy without the dependency on fossil fuel. This project aims at providing solar powered automatized vertical shredder machine to our farmers that is compact and can be operated by using solar.
