Abstract
Agriculture operations are extremely labor intensive and often there shortage of labor and sometimes expensive for small farmers. The pesticide spraying and fertilizer dispensing are prominent of these operations that are done manually. The pesticide spraying is done using a back mounted spray pump whereas the fertilizer dispensing is done using hands. Mechanization of the above two operations if done will likely reduce considerable man hours and efforts and will be considerable economical. The paper discusses this possibility using a singular machine that combines both operations in ergonomic manner. The components of the system are displayed in the layout and the general arrangement of the combination is shown. The paper elaborates the solution, its mechanical elements and the design of the critical components of the sprayer mechanism. The critical components of the system are designed by theoretical method and the results are validated using Ansys workbench.
