In the vast stretches of India’s farms, the job of spraying crops might sound straightforward, but for those who shoulder knapsack sprayers under the scorching sun, it’s a relentless battle. Imagine carrying a heavy, chemical-filled tank on your back for hours, inhaling fumes that aren’t just unpleasant but dangerously toxic. The manual sprayers, though accessible, are crude in design and often leak or malfunction, leaving farmers directly exposed to hazardous pesticides. The physical strain on the body is immense, and the long-term health risks are undeniable—respiratory illnesses, skin irritation, and even more severe complications like chronic illnesses are common among these workers. The reality is, crop spraying with knapsack sprayers isn’t just tiring; it’s life-threatening.

The demands of crop spraying don’t end with physical and health risks. Precision, timing, and accuracy in application are essential for successful farming, and manual methods often fall short. Fields of uneven terrain add to the challenge, making it hard to reach every plant evenly. Farmers, exhausted by the weight and toxic exposure, often rush through this critical task, compromising the crop’s health and yield. This daily battle takes an unspoken toll on their bodies, but for many farmers, there’s been no other way. They need a safer, more efficient solution that keeps their health in mind and gives crops the protection they deserve.
