  Design and Development of Zero till Rotary Cum Fertilizer Drill Coulter type Seed
  Author(s): K. Ramya*, M. Lokesh and K. Ravi Chandra Charyulu
  
  A zero-tillage system is one of the farming methods that many scientists believe should be used by large and small farm holders to reduce gradual soil damage. Their research also showed that this method can improve the quality of life of farmers. This method has already been adopted by several countries. The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate small farm owners' seed drill selection equipment with semi-rotating disc fertilizer towed by a tractor. The purpose of the machine is to cut off the remnants of previous plants and sow seeds at a set distance and seed depth. The research included the design, manufacture and testing of tractor-driven equipment, disc-type coulter cutters. We also compared traditional farming and conservation systems by collecting data from farmers through a questionnaire. The study found that using equipment could significantly reduce labor needs. I..
