The AgriBot

Abstract

Elisha Marandure

This project is going to address the problem of poor harvest in Zimbabwe and the world at large by creating a machine which is going to carry out a number of functions which will go a long way in alleviating possible poor harvest. Forecasting is key to agricultural activities and therefore this machine will be able to forecast weather patterns e.g. rainfall patterns, so that farmers know when to plant their crops. Furthermore the proposed machine is going to be able to test soil PH as well as fertility levels and such guide farmers on corrective measures so that good yield are realized. One other quality of this machine is it's adaptability to different environment with different weather patterns, but at the same time adapting to the system and give correct information useful for agricultural activities and ensuring good harvest. The proposed machine will also act as a security mechanism which can detect fingerprints and footprint of intruders who might want to steel from the fields to achieve this it will use the alarm system.
The design of the machine will have a similarity to agricultural equipment and tractor design has been chosen. All the microchip controllers and sensors will be mounted on a four wheeled tractor model.
