Bhoramdev seed drill is the most commonly used farm tool in Chhattisgarh. Never the less, using this plough as farm tool is labour intensive, time taking, making shallow depth and narrow cutting width. Thus, this research is initiated to come up with a solution to the aforementioned problems. Therefore, the objectives of this research were to model the basic components of animal drawn modified bhoramdev seed drill, to fabricate and test the prototype. Alternative options were considered for conceptual design among these, without seat to operator, handles and beam attachment design alternative is selected using merit-demerit analysis. In addition, after the detail design, the prototype is fabricated in at BRSM CAET & RESEARCH STATION MUNGELI, IGKV Raipur (C.G.) Workshop using locally available. The newly designed prototype reduces time spent and reducing of human drudgery while ploughing.The drawing of the conceived seed drill was prepared using autocad software. To achieve these a prototype consisting of seed hopper, orifice and agitator, frame, furrow opener and beam for hitching arrangement was developed. The construction of the implement was the main study.
