Introduction:
Agriculture is undoubtedly the largest livelihood source in the country. In the recent trend of Smart agriculture
making use of robots plays a very important role. Scarcity of skilled laborers and environmental changes have made man
to replace with machines. The automation in forming process is mainly for time saving, energy efficiency of repeated
work in farming fields and increased productivity of crop and market trends. The main prerequisite for a good crop
yielding is its seeding procedure. A Robotic vehicle is designed for Seeding in the form using an Arduino controlled by
Bluetooth/RF certain types of sensors are also used. Agriculture purpose Robot is designed by considering certain
climatic conditions and the type of land available for sowing the seed. This Robot is unique of its kind in prototype
design. This method can also have extended high end application in Agriculture yielding and other level designs for
optimization of time, work and efficiency in order to increase the productivity of crops.

Motivation:
• Farmers being confronted with a labor shortage, increasing global population and the declining numbers of
farmers, forces them to look to new solutions. With technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT),
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) entering almost all industries. How can modern
technologies in the case of agriculture and farming make a difference? 
• To address these challenges, efforts and research are in place to improve modern agriculture field.
Literature Survey:
Neha S. Naik; Virendra. V. Shete [1], In recent years, robotics in agriculture sector with its implementation based
on precision agriculture concept is the newly emerging technology. The main reason behind automation of
farming processes are saving the time and energy required for performing repetitive farming tasks and increasing
the productivity using precision farming concept. Designing of such robots is modeled based on particular
approach and certain considerations of agriculture environment in which it is going to work. These considerations
and different approaches are discussed in this paper.

Problem Statement:

Farmers are under pressure to produce more food and use less energy in the process. A
remote monitoring and control system will help farmers deal effectively with these pressures.

Objectives:

The objective of agricultural robotics is to help the sector in its efficiency and in the profitability of the
processes in other words , mobile robotics works in the agricultural sector to improve productivity, specialization
and environmental sustainability . agricultural robots can help farmers with many different tasks such as seeding,
watering , and harvesting crops. offer lower production costs, and a smaller need for manual labor.

Conclusion:

• Upgrade is always better . So We have designed automated Smart Agriculture system which reduces the time
and resources that is required while performing it manually. This system uses the technology of Internet of
Things.
• Smart farming can make agriculture more profitable for the farmer. decreasing resource inputs will save the
farmer money and labor. the sensors and microcontroller are successfully interfaced and wireless
communication is achieved between various nodes.
