Abstract

Agriculture has a predominant role in our day to day life. Spraying of pesticides is an important task in agriculture for protecting the crops from pests. The conventional methods were person carrying a sprayer and manually actuating a lever to generate and pump the pesticide through a tube or a mobile vehicle carrying an inbuilt compressor and sprayer unit. Another major drawback in human operated systems is that the operator is exposed to the harmful chemicals while spraying which is extremely detrimental to operators health.The tractors compress the soil, as they are heavier in weight. They cannot move in terrain environment..In this paper we are trying to make unique equipment for cultivation users. Finding solution to meet the energy demand is a great challenge for scientists and engineers. Now-a-days pesticide sprayer is operated based on fuel engine. This operation is more economical. To overcome this, we found out a new concept known as solar pesticide sprayer. Here, operation of pesticide sprayer is based on solar energy and hence there is no need of any kind of alternative energy source. It has many advantages such as cost of spraying and saving on FuelPetrol. There is less vibration as compared to the petrol sprayer. Hence, the system can easily be operated and there is no need of labors which increase the efficiency of farmland.
