To solve the problem of non availability of labourers, which can shatter the soybean pods, Bhagwan Singh decided to develop a reaper windrower machine. The device can reduce manpower requirement and the drudgery involved in the harvesting process. The machine has 7 ft width of operation and can cover 0.4 hectares per hour. While operating this machine, fuel consumption of tractor is 2.5-3 litres per hour.
