Solar-Powered Pesticide Sprayer with IOT

Abstract

In India, farming is a profession for farmers. India's population is 50% dependent on agriculture, and 82% of farmers are minuscule or marginal, according to a 2019 survey. Pesticides are essential. They help farmers grow more food on less land by protecting crops from pests, diseases, and weeds and increasing hectare-to-hectare productivity. We produce solar pesticide sprayers that protect crops from insects and apply pesticide to them. A solar-powered pesticide sprayer is a four-wheeled vehicle powered by photovoltaic panels or the thermal energy generated by accumulated sunlight. Solar-powered pumps are more cost-effective because they don't need to be maintained. The sun based sprayer enjoys many benefits. Other than limiting the expense of splashing, there is a safeguarding on fuel. In addition, the price of gasoline remains unchanged. The purpose of developing this model is to reduce the amount of labor required by farmers to carry out the spraying purpose. Farmers typically use their conventional spraying equipment to manually carry out this insecticide and pesticide spraying procedure. This usually takes a long time, is very bad for them, and it could even make them sick with serious diseases. Therefore, the fundamental idea of our project was to replace the manual spraying procedure with this device and spraying circuit.
