Design and development of solar powered water sprayer: A green technology innovation

Philippines has many people involved in agriculture and farmers being the country’s backbone strengthens community and local economy. Prioritizing farmers convenience in their agricultural activity by designing and developing an innovative sprayer is the utmost priority of this research. It is for the reason that the study entitled “Design and Development of Solar Powered Water Sprayer: A Green Technlogy Innovation” was conducted to provide opportunities for small scale local farmers by reducing production costs, decreasing labor effort while contributing to sustainability. This study provides information with theoretical basis for future practical recommendations. The result shows that the development phase incorporates four distinct construction assemblies, emphasizing both functionality and durability. Through comprehensive research and testing, it was determined that the sprayer meets specific functional requirements, utilizes appropriate materials, and offers a safe and effective operational method. By following prescribed construction procedures, the sprayer can be assembled efficiently. Evaluation based on Dr. Garvin’s Eight Dimensions of Quality indicates high performance, features, reliability, conformance, durability, serviceability, aesthetics, and perceived quality, positioning it as an innovative project. Importantly, the production cost is lower than traditional water sprayers, and its durable construction ensures a longer lifespan. Results indicate an overall weighted mean of 3.60, signifying “Most Acceptable” quality.
