Design And Development Trolley Operated of Agricultural Multi-nozzle Spray Pump Dr. Pankaj Gajbhiye1, Narayan Shastri2, Aman Sashastrabuddhe3, Jay Wahane4, Shrohil Sangodkar5, Vaibhav Gongale6 Mechanical Department, K. D. K. College of Engineering, Nagpur ------------------------------------------------------------------------***----------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract— In Agriclutural production insects are a major arisign in crop cultivation. Different types of chemical as well as organic fertilizers are sprayed over the crops to solve this problem. The sprayingv methods are majorly classified into two categories i.e. manual and power operated. Both the methods are having their own advantages and disadvantages. Knapsack sprayer is the most commonly used spraying technique by the farmers. Which is aslo causing some health related problems like back pain which also lead to various serious ailments. It is also not a very efficient method as compared to power operated methods but the power operated methods are not economical for the marginal farmers. To address this problem the following solution is provided titled “Design And Development of Trolley Operated Agricultural Multi-nozzle Spray Pump”.
4. Extensive Farming: 5. Plantation Agriculture 6. Commercial Agriculture 7. Dry Land Farming 8. Wet Land Farming (i) Kharif
(ii) Rabi (iii) Zaid
9. Terrace Agriculture Although farmers are classified on the basis of land size as follows:
Keywords—Back pain, constant flow valve, Multinozzle spray pump, farming, pesticides, farm equipment, Spraying equipment, etc.
Introduction As of now, India has 2nd highest crop output in the world. A report released by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmer Welfare, Govt. Of India & a study by National Statistical Office (NSO) and Ministry of Statistics and Program implementation (issued on 31st May 2021) suggests that the contribution of agriculture and it's associated sectors in Indian economy is 20.2% which is greater as compared to past two financial years. Which was 18.4% in 2019-20 as well as 17.6% in 2019-18.
t According to the results (provisional) of latest Agriculture census 2015-16, the State-wise average size of operational holdings in the country is less than 2 hectares except some states which indicates that majority of the farmers in India have 1.08 hectares of land for farming.
The farming practiced in India is majorly divided into following 9 categories :
Therefore, the market of farm related equipments and products (Fertilizers, Insecticides, Pesticides,etc.) has been increasing continiously.
1. Shifting Agriculture
These pesticides are sprayed all over the farm by conventional methods like using a hand operated (manual) sprayer or motor (semi-autoatic) sprayer,etc.
2. Subsistence Agriculture: 3. Intensive Farming
