Abstract

India is land of farmers. As we know population of India is increasing day by day and to fulfil the need of food modernisation of agricultural sectors are important. By using chemical pesticides and fertilizers fertility of soil is decreasing. Hence, organic farming is used by farmers. Same traditional methods are used by the farmers for spraying fertilizers and pesticides, equipments are also same for ages. Using backpack sprayer for spraying fertilizer leads to back pain and is beneficial for small farms. Making modifications in conventional spraying methods will lead to equal distribution of pesticides and fertilisers on the farm and eventually reduce the waste hence, reduce the cost of production.
