            Abstract

            The Girish Tractor is an example of soft technology designed for ecological sustainability. It is a self-propelled machine that enables ploughing with minimal physical effort from the operator. The tractor converts the operator's weight force into a hauling force for ploughing. It is lightweight, easy to maneuver, and requires little maintenance. The machine is suitable for small landholders or hilly terrain. The tractor can be easily replicated anywhere according to local needs, without centralized production and distribution. The objective of soft technology is to provide self-reliant, environment-friendly alternatives that promote a healthy, happy, and egalitarian lifestyle.
