Automation in agriculture is gathering a prominent base for enhanced mechanized farming. These technologies save excess labor, effort, time and costs involved in pertinent methods of crop production. Furthermore, avoiding drudgery and health risks. Weed management especially in the intra-row zone is one of the most tedious operations, involving excess costs and health risks when performed manually. In this regard, an intra-row sensor based weeding technology was developed that removes weeds in the intra-row zone in addition to protecting the main crop by sensing their physiology. A controller algorithm was developed to direct the electro-mechanical units for efficient operation. The system was tested for its sensing accuracy and encountered plant damage while preliminary evaluations. The overall operating efficiency varied within 80 to 96 % when evaluated under different plant spacing. Not Available |
