Abstract: This invention discloses a low-cost, compact, and multifunctional farming tool designed for small-scale agricultural operations, integrating four field functions–soil ploughing, seed sowing, water distribution, and surface levelling–in a single implement. The implement addresses the problems of high operational costs and structural complexity associated with the use of multiple standalone agricultural machines. The main frame comprises depth-adjustable ploughing blades, a seed delivery mechanism, a feed water distribution assembly, and a levelling assembly with a pivotally adjustable drag blade at the rear end. All four modules can be operated individually or collectively in a single pass. The implement is compatible with small tractor power, animal draught, and manual operation. It is fabricated completely from mild steel sections using conventional machining and welding processes, ensuring field maintainability and low production costs. It substantially reduces the labour requirements, operational costs, and field preparation time for small and marginal farms.
