Abstract :Weeds are a major problem in agriculture, causing yield losses and reducing crop quality. Traditional control methods such as chemical herbicides are costly and harmful to the environment. This study presents a sustainable weed management system design and analysis using high voltage electricity (10,000V) to eliminate weeds without chemicals. The experimental system is designed for efficient and safe operation and consists of a 12V battery, inverter, transformer and copper grounding plate. In the implementation phase, it was tested on different widths and different lengths of the weed called high voltage water meadow and recorded how long it takes to become current proof. In addition, detailed analyses were made according to the aspect ratio as to how much current it passes at maximum that is, how much power it consumes. The analysis confirmed the effectiveness of the system and the treated weeds showed significant cellular damage and desiccation. This approach will minimize the environmental impact while promoting sustainable agriculture by providing an environmentally friendly alternative to weeds.
