k-Yantra project develops know-how for setting up an automated agriculture project
testbed to address real world problem and hands-on learning for students to apply
theory in a fun and productive manner .
This entails first generating a rich growing medium (soil) through recycling dry biomass
(leaves) and resource recovery of garden and kitchen waste which is in sync with the
municipal solid waste management agenda of both the central and state government and
consistent with “Swach Bharat".
Plan and execute the creation of beds for growing plants.
Making the gadgets, tools, networked devices for maintaining and monitoring the
growth of plants.
