摘要：Ginger is a potential agricultural commodity to be developed in India. When the harvest comes, people still use a very simple method for harvesting ginger by using hoes, pick-axe and other farming equipments. The farmers complain for the need of so many work forces for harvesting while the labor cost is getting increased and the time spent for harvesting process is too long. Although there is an alternative of imported ginger harvesting machines, those machines are not compatible with the farming environment in India, having a high initial and maintenance cost. This machine can be used in any farming condition in India and can be prepared at village level. This machine has three main parts namely, ginger digger, screener and power transmission system. This project is focusing on design and fabrication ginger harvesting machine. The screener will not only separate ginger from soil but also not let the ginger get harmed. The screener also uses for collectible part, to make this machine need some power transmission system from the engine. This machine needs Auto front petrol engine with rotation speed 20 - 25 rpm approximately with the aid of gear reduction.

摘要：近年来欧美各国不少科学家和设计师都提出崭新的城市种植技术,或借垂直耕种、水培花圃等新科技去培育、研发新的种植产品;或致力于研究都市空间的利用,让人在家居、屋顶天台、荒废大厦或土地上进行蔬果种植。这些新技术规模大到整幢大厦的垂直农场概念,小至家用香草种植产品,还有平民百姓以DIY方式运作的窗口园圃(Window farming)和社区共同种植等。这些科学家和设计师对未来绿色生活的想象和实验,多多少少透露出大家对于城市农夫生活的向往,以及种种可行性。相信在不久的将来,在城市内进行耕作既不是天方夜谭,也不是科幻片的剧情,而是一种简单易入手、走入家居、甚至凝聚社区力量的可持续生活模式,令人人可以保持原有的都市生活方式,同时自给自足所需要的食物、进而与大自然重新建立密切的关系。
