Abstract
Adoption of Happy Seeder for lentil cultivation increases overall productivity and reduces cultivation costs. Many farmers used to burn the crop residues after harvesting, addressing pollution of environment and soil health. The Happy Seeder helps to overcome the issues by managing crop residues, land preparation, and sowing seeds at a single time, saving labour, time and other inputs resulted in enhancing production efficiency.
