What was Jugaadu Kamlesh idea | Jugadu Kamlesh Product
Kamlesh created a unique pesticide trolley spray. Farmers spray pesticides or drop seeds by lifting the sprayer tank on their shoulders, which is a very tough task to do and is time-consuming too. These pesticides also cause diseases when they go into our mouths and eyes. His father also had the disease.
In order to solve this problem of his father and several other farmers like him, Kamlesh designed a trolley spray, where the sprayer tank can be placed and the trolley can be moved very easily without giving much effort and it saves time too.
