Sprayer is a device used in agriculture used to spray liquids like water, insecticides, and pesticides in agriculture. They are also used to spray herbicides and fertilizers to crops in agriculture.
Agricultural sprayers have components like spray nozzle, liquid tank, sprayer pump, pressure regulator, valves and fluid plumbing and some sprayers have spray gun. This agriculture sprayers comes in various size, design and performance specifications. There are small sprayers to very large sprayers in size that helps to cover small area of land to extensive land.
There are number of sprayers which are designed for different spraying applications like gardening, crops, trees, fruit, livestock needs, and weed control.
Various types of sprayers suitable for small to large lands, viz.
Knapsack Sprayer
Portable Power Sprayer
Knapsack Power Sprayer
Mist Dust Sprayer
HTP Sprayers
Orchard Sprayers
Knapsack sprayer is convenient for spraying through hand-held nozzles that is connected to tank carried on operators back. There are three types of Knapsack sprayers i.e battery, manual and battery cum manual sprayer.
Portable power sprayers are operated by electric and petrol engine with the help of hose pipe. This type of sprayer doesn’t have chemical tank, which is used for applying pesticides, insecticides or liquid type chemicals at extensive land coverage.
Knapsack power sprayer has motor engine operated by using petrol engine i.e., 2 stroke and 4stroke engine type. It has the separate chemical tank and also has hand held nozzles.
Mist dust sprayer is a kind of knapsack power sprayer which is used to spray liquid chemical in mist form and urea in granule form. Ideal for quick spraying operations in orchards, tea, coffee estates & other crops. It can spray dust powder form pesticides also
HTP sprayer is a horizontal triple piston pump with brass head, mainly used for uniform spraying with high pressure all over the operation land, it is used for multipurpose like commercial usage and agricultural usage. Its main benefit is having long operation life and power efficiency. In this type of sprayer also we can find battery, manual and battery cum manual operated sprayers.
Orchard Sprayers are used to apply pesticides, plant growth regulators and foliar nutrients to orchard trees. It is a tractor mounted equipment suitable for large area lands.

| How does a planter work? |

Do you wonder how a planter works? Think about how you plant your garden. You dig a hole, plant the seed, and then cover it up. The same concept applies to a planter.
For each row on a planter, you find a seed box. This box stores the seeds that will be planted in that particular row. The seed falls down through the bottom of the box, into a seed plate. As the plate rotates, the seeds fall out one-by-one on to the ground.
Planting3a.jpgView full sizeGet to know the parts of a planter
At the front of the individual row setup is a trash wheel. These two jagged edge blades help clean out any debris in the row of where the seed will be planted.
The next element is the disc opener. These two disc blades, smooth edges for this set, dig a trench for the seed to be planted in. This is the same step you take when you use a hoe in your garden.
Next in line is the gauge wheel. This wheel rotates the seed plate and releases a new seed a certain distance from the last seed. As the seed falls, it passes a sensor. From the tractor seat, the farmer can tell how many seeds are being planted, how far apart they are being planted, and that all rows are working properly.
The last step in any planting process, either by hand or by machine, is to cover the seed up. There are two wheels at the back of the row, called closing wheels. They are pointed in to one another and their whole object is to simply cover up the seed.
It sure is nice to use a planter to help us plant our crops. As you plant your garden this summer, think about each step and how that is automated in our planting equipment.

A planter is a farm implement, usually towed behind a tractor, that sows (plants) seeds in rows throughout a field.It is connected to the tractor with a drawbar or a three-point hitch. Planters lay the seeds down in precise manner along rows. Planters vary greatly in size, from 1 row to 54, with the biggest in the world being the 48-row John Deere DB120. Such larger and newer planters comprise multiple modules called row unitsThe row units are spaced evenly along the planter at intervals that vary widely by crop and locale.

sing a combine to harvest grains, a farmer can cut wide swaths of over 40 feet through a crop. Here are some of the crops combines can be used to harvest:
Sunflowers
Soybeans
Sorghum
Barley
Wheat
Canola
Corn
Oats
Rye
Flax
To harvest canola and sunflowers, a special attachment must be used.

A combine is a large and complex piece of machinery that involves numerous moving and integral parts. These machines may or may not have a grain platform, depending on its usage, which typically have two types of platforms: spinning augers or a belt that separates clean grain from unwanted material before the harvest gets into the grain cart.
Because farmers plant more than one crop at a time, versatile machine models have sprung up over the years to harvest more grain types, as well as featuring a separate grain cart per crop. Modern combines can remove unwanted stalks, and most machines, like the John Deere combine models, can process the whole plant in one swift motion.
Here, we examine the inner workings of this modern farm equipment, and how these machines benefit farmers as they go about their harvest season: - [size=1]The collection of grains and cereal crops occurs at the front of the combine in a section known as the header. The header includes a couple of sharp pincers referred to as crop dividers.[/size]
- [size=1]Based on the width of the header, the speed and efficiency of the combine varies proportionately.[/size]
- [size=1]Maneuvering the header comes down to the use of hydraulics to help angle the section in necessary ways.[/size]
- [size=1]In order to push the grains into the cutter, a rotating wheel known as the pickup reel is used in the combine. The reel uses vertical teeth to help grasp the grains and smoothly move it into the header.[/size]
- [size=1]There is also a section called the cutter bar that’s located under the reel. This bar helps to cut the plants off at their base, acting much like a hedge cutter as the combine sweeps along the farm.[/size]
- [size=1]Once the crops move through the cutter bar, they are directed towards the center of the machine with the help of numerous rotating screws and augers. This leads them up a conveyor and into the main section of the combine.[/size]
- [size=1]In this central portion, a threshing drum is used to break the plants and separate the grains from the stalks.[/size]
- [size=1]Once the grains are separated, they fall through fine sieves that help to only collect the integral section of the plants. There is a collection tank waiting below the sieves to accumulate the grains.[/size]
- [size=1]The remainder of the plant, which includes the stalks and chaff, are directed to another conveyor called straw walkers. The conveyor moves the plant to the back of the machine, and during this process more grains fall into the tank of the combine.[/size]
- [size=1]Once the tank is entirely full, the grains are transferred into an empty trailer with the help of an elevator and side pipe located inside the combine.[/size]
- [size=1]A rotating mechanism is used in the combine to help spread the unwanted staff of the plant across a wide area. In other cases, the straw of the grains is also baled up with a machine and is used for various purposes such as animal bedding.[/size]

A combine, short for combine harvester, is a large-scale automated machine that helps to improve the productivity of agricultural workers. It is primarily used to efficiently harvest massive quantities of various grains, thereby greatly reducing the laborious burdens faced by farmers. The name of the machine comes from its ability to combine three major functions of harvesting.
This specifically includes the process of reaping, threshing, and winnowing. Some of the major grains harvested with the help of a combine include soybeans, oats, rye, wheat, flax, sunflower, barley, and canola. Based on the type of grain being harvested by the combine, the head of the equipment can be modified and designed to maximize its efficiency.

There are three major types of combine harvesters that are currently in use:
Self-propelled: These wheeled harvester machines are excellent for farms with hard soil. They are the standard type that is used commonly in India.
Track: These are fitted with tracks instead of wheels. They are very efficient in areas where wheels are likely to get bogged down. Track combines are commonly used for harvesting rice and some other crops from wetlands.
Tractor Mounted: These harvesters are driven by tractors that are mounted on top of them. They work best on lands where the soil is loose and the farmed area is extensive.
Though the structure of a combine harvester looks simple, they are functionally quite advanced. Here’s a basic outline of the various operations that a combine harvester performs.
Crops are gathered in by a header at the front that comes with pincers on both sides. The wider the header, the faster the cut. Different headers are used for cutting different crops in different landscapes. The header is hydraulically powered to be moved to different heights and angles.
After passing through the header, the crops are pushed into the cutter by a slowly rotating wheel called the reel (or pickup reel). The reel has horizontal bats and vertical tines to get a good grip of the crop stalks.
The cutter bar which runs the entire length of the header is located underneath the reel. Its mowing fingers open and close repeatedly to cut off the crops at their base.
Then the cut crops are moved towards the center of the combine by spinning screws. The crops go up a conveyor to the processing mechanism inside the main part of the combine.
At the center of the combine, a threshing drum beats the cut crops to break and shake the grains away from the stalks.
Then the grains fall through sieves into a collecting tank.
The chaff and stalks pass along conveyors called straw walkers towards the back of the machine.
As the grain tank gets full, a trailer pulls alongside the combine and drives along. The grain is carried up from the tank by an elevator and shot out of an unloader on the side, into the trailer.
The unwanted stalks and chaff fall outside from the back of the combine. Some combines have a spreader that throws the straw over a wide area. The straw is chopped, spread on the field, ploughed back in or used for bedding and limited-feed for livestock.
