Last Updated: 19 October 2025, 22:26 IST Agricultural Machine: Due to increasing cost in farming, farmers are now adopting power weeding machines, which do the same work as 10 labourers. The government also gives subsidy on this. Agri Tips: The cost of farming has been steadily increasing in the last few years. There has been the fastest rise in wages, and in addition, farmers’ crops are affected due to the non-availability of laborers on time. In such a situation, farmers now turn to modern machines. One of these is power weeding, which can do the job from removing weeds in the fields to plowing the land single-handedly. The special thing is that this machine does the work equivalent to 10 laborers and also saves costs over time. According to machine salesman Sanjay Jain, power weeder is a modern agricultural machine, with the help of which farmers can easily remove weeds from the fields. Apart from this, it also helps in plowing and leveling land. Power weeders are available in both petrol and diesel engines and are sold in the market in different horse powers. It has special use in rice cultivation, as it is useful in reducing sludge and controlling weeds. This machine, which does the work of two oxen, also plays an important role in gardening and vegetable farming. 2 hours of work: Traditionally, 10 laborers take about two hours to remove weeds from one acre of field with two liters of petrol, while one person with a power weeder can do the same job in just two hours. It only needs two liters of petrol in two hours. As a result, farmers do not have to depend on laborers and farming work is done on time. If we talk about the price, power weed killer is available in the range of Rs 35 thousand to Rs 70 thousand. Its maintenance is also easy. After running for 25 hours, oil should be changed and with periodic servicing, this machine can work for a long time. Subsidy is also available… The biggest relief is that the government is also giving subsidy to the farmers on this machine. Farmers can avail the benefits of this scheme by applying online and filling a demand draft of the prescribed amount. Farmers get a subsidy through a lottery system and they can even get the machine at half the price. About the Author Rishi Mishra has been active in journalism for over a decade.
