Modified design Burrow smoke Generator: Earlier, the Institute has developed a Burrow Smoke Generator for rodent pest management in fields. The equipment is mounted on a single wheel trolley, since the movement of trolley into the field is too difficult as reported by farmers due to the complicated design and heavier in weight.

 To enable movement in field, the design of Burrow smoke Generator has been refined with following objectives.

  • to reduce the weight
  • to refined the design which can be portable and handy.
  • to make it a fire proof & safety against heat.
