Abstract


India is a highly populated country and about 60%to 70% of its population depends on agriculture. In this majority is the small-scale producers. One of the most important part of farming includes pesticides spraying. In today’s market many types of agricultural sprayers are available which works on different kinds of power source. This sprayer has higher cost which is difficult for the medium scale farmers to afford. To over this problem the project comes with the mechanism which is easy to use and affordable


Keywords


Pesticide sprayer, nozzle, chain shaft mechanism.
