Abstract: It is well known fact that India is an agricultural country.It is considered as the lifeline of our Country since it provides the most employment and profit to the nation. But the current state of agriculture in India is not is not upto the mark. The farmers and other agriculture related people are suffering a lot. Considering the problems which are faced by the farmers in the agriculture industry which includes physical strains on the body we as engineers need to design a solution to this. We have seen that due to pesticide spraying the farmers face lot of physical as well as respiratory problems. Our solution to this problem includes designing a machine which helps to reduce manual work of farmers and save them from respiratory problems. The machine is a cost effective solution to help the farmers and can be used even by small scale farmers. Thus, this robotic spraying machine will be of great use. There are various pesticide sprayers available in the market. These spraying techniques are very tediousand time consuming. Purpose is to make an affordable pesticide spraying machine to boost the income of farmers the productivity of crops must be increased. Hence the design tries to improve the pesticide spraying techniques. Through this paper, a real life solution to link agriculture with technology in order to reduce human efforts & boost up the total output is suggested. This paper aims at explaining the working ofa low cost & efficient robotic spraying machine that would be operated by the farmer through remote so that thefarmer is not in direct contact with harmful pesticides. On the command from the remote the spraying action will be controlled. The pesticide sprayer would operate with minimal pollution. The model includes 2 nozzles for spraying purpose along with a DC pump which will help inthe total flow of liquid so that constant spraying will occur.
