Agriculture is a vital part of the economy in India, and in Ladakh, it presents a unique and challenging endeavor because of its high-altitude, arid climate, and limited rainfall. Agriculture in Ladakh is important but faces challenges due to lack of innovation. We have, therefore, developed an agricultural robot that will help automate various farming tasks, thus reducing labor and increasing efficiency. This agricultural robot is to enhance the agricultural operations such as soil analysis, diagnosis of plant, crop recommendations, spraying of water/pesticides, detection of objects using Raspberry Pi (master) that handles all the heavy functions, such as object detection, while the Arduino (2 slave) receives and sends signals from the sensor and monitoring of soil moisture and humidity without harming soil fertility. In addition, it also helps protect workers from dangerous insects and here we use a lithium-ion battery that is fully coated with thermal insulation to protect it from cold temperature technology controls the robot and feeds it with real-time AI insights, leading to more informed decision making and efficiency. A local Ladakhi voice assistant lets the farmers interact through the device in their first language so they can easily associate themselves with it. We have designed this voice assistant using Google Translator, pyttsx3, Speech recognition and Google Search to answer the farmer's queries and provide valuable information in a simple, easily accessible manner.
