Most of the area in the vidharba region of Maharashtra are occupy by various crop like, sugarcane, soyabine, peageon pee, check pee etc. But out of them cotton is a major crop of vidharba because of the good soil condition. The area covered by this crop is around 60% of total crop production. Generally, the farmer of vidharba region was burnt the cotton plant after picking of cotton. Because the cost of uprooting and collegting as well as store and transporting is not affordable to normal farmer. So for that reason the farmer is not gaining proper value of this good biomass. Due to non-availability of the small adjustable and affordable machine. The biomass colegedyed from one hector is around 6 tons in all over vidharba region the biomass available only due to cotton is around 15.9 Millan M.t. We are wasted this all biomass through burning. In this present work we are focused on this issue to solve this problem by applying simple cost effective soliton. In the present research work we are studied varies machine available in India and Abroad those are used for this kind of operation, we are determining the drawback of this machine for the Indian farm and also regarding cost what is effect on the productivity of vidharba farmer.
