A news story about a machine that lets you climb a tree in a matter of seconds is reported in India.
It was designed by an Indian farmer.
South India is still in high demand for arecanuts.
Although a large amount of arecanut is being grown for this purpose, it is very difficult and life threatening.
Indian farmer Ganapathi Bharat has overcome these challenges and is able to build a machine that can climb to the tallest beetle tree in a matter of seconds.
The beetle climbing machine weighing up to 28 kilograms can carry up to 80 kilograms at the top of the tree.
The 2.1-horsepower engine is powered by petrol.
With the invention of the machine, the profession of making arecanut, one of the most popular industries in South India, has become easier.
The coastal town of Karnataka is a region famous for traditional arecanut cultivation.
It is said that this is the best area for beet growing in the region.
The machine is expected to be launched commercially in the near future.
