variable frequency drive (VFD) in agricultural area and comparison between energy conservation by using variable frequency drive and without using variable frequency drive. Variable frequency drive is electronics device used for controlling speed of induction motor by changing voltage and frequency in a fixed ratio. If we only varied voltage then air gap flux between stator and rotor increases and motor core gets saturated hence we have to vary both voltage and frequency in a ratio. In agricultural area no one is using VFD, all farmers are using conventional direct online starter (DOL) or star delta starter. aim is to use VFD for maintaining the speed of pump which is coupled to 3Ф induction motor, by changing speed of motor, speed of pump get changed and hence pressure of water flowing through pump. In drip irrigation system water pressure is main factor which affects whole drip system this paper is intended to make study by comparing energy consumption without VFD and with VFD
