Abstract
Swarm robotics is a diligence of swarm intelligence, it deals with natural and artificial systems in an environment composed of many individuals that co-ordinate using decentralized control to perform a certain task or work towards a common goal in the presence of a co-ordinator. This highly adaptable and self-organized system of robots is a new approach to co-ordination of multi robot systems. Incorporating this system of robots revolutionizing the process of farming is one of the major breakthroughs in this generation of robotics. This synopsis mainly deals with application of this completely autonomous system in scouting, ploughing, providing water, harvesting etc., also constantly monitoring the crops during its growth period and keeping the farmer informed about the crops year round. This system is implemented by reducing the constraints of cost and power consumption, hence diluting the amount of hardware required for its implementation without compromising the quality of service. It also proposes a simple operation mechanism for high efficiency of the system and simple communication protocol to ensure fast intermediate data exchange. Lastly, throws light on the future challenges to be faced and its application of the same structure in various fields.
