Design of Post Hole Digger Machine
International Journal of Engineering Research & Technology (IJERT) ISSN: 2278-0181 Vol. 3 Issue 3, March - 2014 Design of Post Hole Digger Machine Asst. Prof. S. Rajkumar1 , Tibey V Samuel2, K. P. Arunkumar 3, Sanju Paul Kurian 4 1, 2,3,4. Department of Mechanical Jay Shriram Group of Institution Tirupur-638660 Abstract— Conventionally digging a deep holes or larger diameter holes requires more work and rime.so in order to reduce this losses we are planning to design a post hole digger machine for Kamco Tera-trac 4W tractor. Post hole digger machine is used to reduce the man work and time for digging holes. These holes can be used for fixing electric post and different plantation such as rubber plant, coconut, sugar cane etc. For rigid power and support, machine is attached to Kamco Tera-trac 4W tractor by means of PTO (power take off) shaft and three point linkage. PTO shaft of the tractor act as a basic power input and three point linkage provide a rigid support to the machine. Guarded shaft is used to transfer power from PTO shaft to the digger machine. Blades are provided at the end of the machine is used foe digging holes. Various type of holes can be created by using different diameter and length of blades. For designing Post hole digger machine, Creo parametric 1.0 software is used. Creo is 3D mechanical CAD software in which Drafting and assembly can be done easily.

The Broadfork
The BroadFork Many gardeners and growers, especially those working on heavy soils, face the difficulty of deeply compacted soil and want to loosen and aerate it without bringing lower layers to the surface. On a field scale there are tractor-based solutions, but how to tackle the task in the smaller plot? The BroadFork is designed to be at least part of the solution! (The Glaser Bio cultivator (414) has the same objective.) Here are some of Eliot Coleman’s comments from his book The New Organic Grower:– “This two-handled deep tillage tool is known by different names, but broadfork comes as close to describing it as any other. Like most agricultural tools its genesis surely dates far back in agricultural history. It consists of a 2-foot wide spading fork with a 5-foot-long handle at either side of the fork. The teeth on the fork are spaced 4 inches apart and are about 12 inches long . The tines are designed with a parabolic shape and curve down from an attachment point at the back of the crossbar. This difference is the key. The parabolic curve . works with an easy, rolling motion. As the handles are pulled down, the tines curve under and lift the soil easily. “The broadfork is held with the handles tilted slightly forward of vertical. It is pressed into the soil as far as possible by stepping on the crossbar, then the two handles are pulled back towards the operator in an easy rocking motion. The broadfork is then lifted from the loosened soil, the operator steps backwards 6 inches, and the manoeuvre is repeated..

Horticultural Tools and Equipment
HORTICULTURAL TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT Contribution of horticultural and floricultural crops to the total agricultural production in the country is quite significant due to highly favourable and varied agro-ecological diversities. Major field operations for horticultural crops include nursery/seedling preparation, post hole digging for planting, interculture, aeration, earthing, irrigation, plant protection, harvesting, handling, packaging transport. The cultivation of horticultural crops is predominantly dependent upon human labour, since commercial cultivation is only on a limited scale. Animal/power tiller or tractor-drawn mould board ploughs, disc ploughs, harrows, cultivators and rotavators, are available and used for land preparation. The fruits plants are generally perennial plants planted in pits. The tractor or power tiller operated posthole diggers are available in the country up to 30 cm diameter. These pits are filled with good soil and manure. Inter-row spaces of the pits can be tilled with power tiller/tractor drawn tillage machinery to destroy the weeds, increase aeration and conserve moisture. Small power tillers can be used in terraced fields. The fruit seedsand stonesare sown manuallyfor raisingthe nursery!seedlings for grafting or direct planting. For planting bold seeds,manual dibblers have beendeveloped. The inclined plate and pneumaticplanters have beensuccessfully used for direct sowing of small vegetable seeds.Vegetable transplantersare undergoingextensive feasibility evaluation for planting vegetable seedlings. Hand tools such as budding and grafting knife, pruning knife and secateurscan be used for plant propagation andpruning. Telescopichandles can be used for the pruning of the twigs and branches,which are not in the reachof humanhand. Hand tools or sl')1allpower tillers with rotavatorscan be used for weedingand interculture.

In 1982, irrigation system components were added to the offering. In 1990, Harmony Farm Supply moved to its present location where it added a Nursery as well as more products (including Photovoltaic Solar products). Since then, Harmony Farm Supply has been the leader in providing CCOF Certified Organic vegetable starts. In 2007, Kate and David decided that they wanted to be growers rather than retailers. They sold the business to Rick Williams in July of that year. Rick and his wife Leah are committed to carrying the “sustainable” baton.

Farming is an activity that offers a clear window into our values and desires. Over the last hundred years, our food system has veered decisively from its original focus on small-scale, regionally specific food production, to one that is primarily concerned with its capacity to compete in the global marketplace. The result has been well documented in a wide range of sources: ecological devastation, market-driven abandonment of family farms, gutted local food economies, and a loss of food literacy that will, despite our best efforts, haunt us for generations to come. In the face of this dominant mentality to ‘get big or get out,’ people around the country have been presenting an alternative to such a food system.
