Name Motorcycle Driven Ploughing Machine
Innovator Shri Mansukhbhai Jagani
Amreli, Gujarat
Description Like many other drought prone regions, this region also has a severe shortage of fodder leading to decline in the availability of bullocks for farming operations. One of Mansukhbhai’s friend approached him to find some solution to scarcity of draft power. Looking at the motorcycle his friend was riding, Mansukhbhai thought of adapting it as a ploughing machine. That’s how ‘Bullet Santi’ was born. Innovation is not in the tool bar which was developed much earlier but the attachment in the motorcycle which has diffused widely in the area.

Using the chassis, drive and power of an Enfield Bullet motorcycle in front, the innovator has retrofitted an attachment with two wheels at the rear with a tool bar to fit various farm implements. This meets various needs such as ploughing, weeding and sowing seeds etc in sandy and sandy loam soil.
Technical Features Easy to assemble and disassemble, therefore the motorcycle can be used for transportation after completing farm operations.

Field capacity (coverage) of the machine is 4 acres/hr (1.8 ha/hr) for groundnut cultivation. However, it may vary for different crops depending upon the soil conditions and cropping pattern.

The unit is capable of performing all the agricultural operation carried out by pairs of bullock and subset of operations performed by tractor.

Can also be used for goods transporting operations by attaching a small trailer.

Fuel consumption of the machine is 1 lit/hr for groundnut cultivation.
