Agriculture is a major source of livelihood, and rice harvesting is still performed manually in many rural areas, making the process time-consuming, labor-intensive, and physically demanding. Traditional tools such as sickles cause fatigue and reduce productivity, while modern harvesting machines are often expensive and unsuitable for small farmers. To address these challenges, this paper presents a low-cost rice cutter machine designed to reduce manual effort and improve harvesting efficiency. The proposed system consists of a DC motor, quick return mechanism, circular cutting blade, 12V battery, and a wheeled frame with a control switch. The motor drives the blade to perform fast and uniform cutting, while the lightweight structure allows easy movement in the field. The battery-powered operation eliminates fuel dependency and reduces maintenance costs. Overall, the machine provides an economical, easy-to-use, and efficient solution for small and mediumcale farmers.
