India is the world's 3rd largest manufacturer of tractors, yet 80% of Indian farmers don't use mechanisation to boost productivity. Why? How can this change? Find out with Devi Murthy, the Co-Founder of Kamal Kisan. This is a business that is designing and manufacturing low-cost mechanisation options for India's small farmers. In this video, watch team Kamal Kisan is developing solutions for existing farm practices rather than having farmers adapt new ones to suit high-cost equipment. Devi and her team are aiming to lower the Indian farmer's dependency on labour and fuel - both of which are expensive, want to increase farm productivity and go on to make mechanisation a lifestyle choice for every farmer.

Farmers poor purchasing capacity, recurring costs for maintaining them , availability of farm labourers , efficient utilisation of tractors , credit facilities to purchase are the points to be considered by him before switching over to mechanisation.
