In this project a Semi- automatic solar powered agricultural sprayer was fabricated which replace the conventional agricultural sprayer. Main aim of this work is to make the conventional agricultural sprayer to a semi- automatic one by equipping an electric motor and a wheel assembly. The motion of the wheels is converted into reciprocating motion of piston in the sprayer. In this work a solar panel and a battery was installed to supply power to motor. This reduces the wage fossil fuels. The spraying of pesticides and insecticides is traditionally done by farm worker carrying backpack type, Engine Driven Sprayers and Hydraulic sprayers. All these mentioned techniques are costlier and somewhat harmful to the worker because the pesticides involves in Toxic condition. Skills of labor required depend upon the complexity of the equipment machinery used. To eliminate these problems, introducing the Solar based pesticides sprayer pump is one of the improved versions of petrol engine pesticide sprayer pump. It is vastly used in the agriculture field & also used for many purposes. This is having more advantages over petrol engine sprayer pump. It uses the solar power to run the motor. So it is a pollution free pump compared to petrol engine sprayer pump.
