Abstract
Today’s world energy demand is more then generation and therefore huge “energy crisis†probles are exist.. To meet the future “energy demandsâ€, the use of nonconventional energy as an alternate solution . In order to meet the food requirements of growing population, modernization of agriculture has become a necessity. In agriculture, spraying of pesticides is an important task to protect the crops from insects for obtaining high yield. However, farmers have been mainly using traditional conventional techniques like hand operated and fuel operated spray pump system for spraying pesticides.The Existing sprayer has the difficulties as follows, The conventional sprayer needs lot of effort to push the liver up and down in order to create the pressure to spray. Another difficulty of petrol sprayer is to need to purchase the fuel which increases the running cost of the sprayer. In order to overcome these difficulties Solar power sprayer has great importance in agiculture field because of elimination of engine fuel , vibrations and noise. The elimination of fuel will make our spraying system eco-friendly.
