Abstract—In today’s competive world there is a ned for faster ate of production of agricultural products. Agriculture is the backbone of India. In India almost al farmers facing problems of labour shortage. Day by day labour wages are increasing and in the same way demand of agriculture products are also increasing and today’s world ned faster rate of production of agriculture products. This project aims to design and fabricate smal scale sugarcane harvesting machine for sugarcane harvesting to reduce farmer’s efort and to increase production of agricultural products. Machine consists of petrol engine and diferent mechanisms are used in this machine. When compare to manual harvesting by using this machine has a capacity to cut canes in faster rate and it is economical. The machine is helpful for both whom having smal or big farms.
