Automatic Solar Sprayer

Abstract

The population of India is rapidly in order to fulfil their diet & needs. The production of foods is increase by day but it must at affordable rate to everyone. In India, farming is done by traditional ways beside that there has been larger development of industry and service sector as compared to that of agriculture sector. ln mechanization of agriculture sector in India some equipment has been developed the pesticide sprayer is one among them and it is done by traditional farm worker by carrying backpack type sprayer, which requires human effort or by using electric pump. To improve the agriculture system and to reduce the human effort and problems associated with the backpack sprayer new equipment is fabricated which will be beneficial to farmers. The equipment utilizes renewable energy sources (Solar energy) which is eco-friendly to function. In this equipment solar panel gives out electric supply to system, the radio-controlled transmitter and receiver minimize drudgery of farmer. lt minimize the wastage of pesticide and time. Our contribution on our project is by using eco-friendly reliably available solar energy as a main source of energy making this multifunctional sprayer device by the spraying methods which make friendly to use and operate which can be useful in different stages of farming as per process requirement. It can be operated in small farming land with the standard spacing decreasing the labour cost and human effort. The proposed sprayer uses solar power and solar energy as a source of power for sprayingpurpose. One person is sufficient for operating the proposed sprayer. The performance evaluation of the sprayer was carried out for spraying pesticide in different agricultural fields.
