Pesticide
spraying equipment plays an important role in the application of pesticides. Generally,
the power required for spraying is met out from either alone or a combination
of human source and mechanical power. Sometimes the batteries are used for
running the motor which operates the pump for discharging the chemicals. But
these batteries require electricity for charging them. Because of the inadequate
supply of electricity in rural areas, there is greater scope for solar-powered
sprayers. They reduce drudgery and are eco-friendly. These can be quite
economical and can be easily affordable by small and marginal farmers.
