Wasif Rashid, a 22-year-old entrepreneur from Jammu and Kashmir and founder of The Asian Real Estate, has patented a revolutionary Multipurpose Agricultural Apparatus (Patent No. IN202211049323). This lightweight, stainless steel tool, designed for India’s small and marginal farmers (over 86% of the farming population), combines seven functions—spade, hoe, axe, hammer, mallet, nail plier, and crowbar—into one affordable, ergonomic device.
Key Features:
-
Multifunctional Design: A detachable tool head system with a three-way connector allows adjustable tool orientations for digging, chopping, hoeing, nailing, and more.
-
Cost and Time Efficiency: Reduces equipment costs by up to 70% and eliminates the need to carry multiple tools, saving time and effort.
-
Durable and Accessible: Made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel with a modular design, it’s ideal for remote, hilly, and rain-fed regions.
-
Innovative Features: Includes an inverted V-shaped slot for removing stones or nails from soil, enhancing usability.
Impact: The tool addresses the challenges of small farmers by reducing physical strain, lowering costs, and improving efficiency, particularly in areas with limited access to mechanized equipment.
