Abstract:
In modern agriculture, the use of sprayers has become indispensable for crop protection and management. The effectiveness and efficiency of sprayers are essential to achieving optimal yields. There are various types of sprayers available, such as boom sprayers, air blast sprayers, and electrostatic sprayers, each with its own advantages and limitations. Factors that influence their performance include nozzle design, spray quality, and application rate. Moreover, here we discuss recent developments in sprayer technology and their potential impact on the future of agriculture. This review aims to assist farmers, researchers, and agricultural practitioners in selecting the most appropriate sprayer for their specific needs and applications. It also provides insight into the current state and future prospects of sprayer technology, with the goal of promoting sustainable and efficient agricultural practices.
