International Paper- Design development and fabrication of agricultural sprayer with weeder..pdf

In order to meet the food requirements of the growing population and rapid industrialization, modernization of agriculture is inescapable. Mechanization enables the conservation of inputs through precision in metering ensuring better distribution, reducing quantity needed for better response and prevention of losses or wastage of inputs applied. Mechanization reduces unit cost of production through higher productivity and input conservation.<br>Farmers are using the same methods and equipment for the ages. In our country farming is done by traditional way, besides that there is large development of industrial and service sector as compared to that of agriculture. The spraying is traditionally done by labor carrying backpack type sprayer which requires more human effort. The weeding is the generally done with the help of Bulls which becomes costly for farmers having small farming land. So to overcome these above two problems a machine is developed which will be beneficial to the farmer for the spraying and weeding operations.
