Crop Row Planting Guide Kit with Arduino Uno + Stepper Motor
Crop Row Planting Guide Kit with Arduino Uno & Stepper Motor
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Instead of bending down with a measuring tape and stick, build a motorized guide that winds a rope across your field—marking perfectly spaced rows for seeds. This kit turns a classroom desk or a rooftop garden into a mini farm automation lab, teaching the fundamentals of smart agriculture through hands-on coding and electronics.
What You'll Build
You'll assemble a portable row-marking device that advances a guide line at exact intervals using a stepper motor. The OLED screen displays the current row number and spacing in centimetres. Press a tactile button to mark the next row—repeatable, accurate, and entirely programmable.
What You'll Learn
- Interfacing a 28BYJ-48 stepper motor with Arduino Uno
- Programming precise step counts for physical movement
- Using tactile buttons to control motor actions
- Displaying real-time data on a 0.96‑inch OLED screen

Who This Kit Is For
Perfect for CBSE Class 5‑10 students crafting agri‑tech projects, ATL Tinkering Lab entries on smart farming, and middle‑school science fairs. With the included AI companion, even enthusiastic 5‑year‑olds can assemble under adult guidance. B.Tech 1st‑year students will also find it an excellent quick prototype for embedded systems lab work.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project—accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code inside the box to open your AI companion; it will walk you through every wiring and code step. You can also message us on WhatsApp for a human helping hand.
Can I use this kit on a real garden plot?
Yes, the rope guide assembly can be anchored in soil beds or raised garden troughs to mark seed rows at user‑set intervals. It's designed for educational demonstrations, not large‑scale farming.
Does the OLED screen show the spacing?
Yes, the OLED displays the current row number and spacing in centimetres, adjustable via the two tactile buttons.
Can I power it with a USB power bank instead of a 9V battery?
Absolutely. The Arduino Uno can be powered through its USB port, making it convenient for field demos using a standard power bank.
Stepper motor winds a rope guide at exact intervals to mark row spacing for seed planting.
