At Shivalaya Farm, we believe in
setting benchmarks by racing ahead of our times. We have adopted many progressive systems for complete mechanization of our farm and for storage of fertilizers and other equipment to optimize output and minimize loss and input.
Given below are the highlights.
Farm Mechanization
We heavily depend on various machines to simplify work and save time:
- Tractor mounted HTP sprayer
It helps in spraying with three lances at a time and can spray up to 20 meter with the use of different spraying lances. As it is tractor driven, it can be carried to any location for spraying.
- Grass cutting Machine
This machine enables just 2 individuals to cut 4 acres of grass per day on plains.This also proves effective for clearing bushes.
- Tractors
The tasks of ploughing, tilling, puddling and spraying are done by tractors.
- Chopping machine
With the help of this machine, we are recycling farm wastes like coconut fronds and chopping down branches for manuring purpose.
- Spinning machine
This enables us to make coco pith and coir from coconut husk.
- Farm trolleys
To facilitate easy movement of fertilizers, harvest trolleys are used.
- Solar lamp

Solar lamps have been provided as a source of lighting.
- Traps
For controlling pests, pheromone traps are used.
- De-husker

For removing husk from Coconut and Areca nut, we have got de-husking units.
Storage Facilities
To minimize expenses on fertilizers and chemicals, we store fertilizers and chemicals required for a whole year. Godowns are separately reserved for chemicals and fertilizers. Harvested Coconuts and Cashews are stored appropriately in a separate unit. Tools and equipment, spares and fuels are stored separately.
