Abstract

As we know that INDIA have 70% people who do farming and farming related work. Agriculture is to be enhance for
increasing “Gross Domestic Product” of the country. The productivity can be increased by the use of the pesticides.

source available by which we can generate power. Solar energy is one of them. We are trying to use this solar energy for
spraying the pesticides in farms. A solar operated boom sprayer which consist pump which is running on electricity
generated by the photovoltaic panel by collecting the sunlight. It has no effect on environment with respect to internal
