Controlling insects and diseases is an important factor for increasing yields of agricultural products. Power sprayer is widely used in cooperative controlling of insects and diseases for the production of rice and fruits. However, farmers need a long hose to use the power sprayer and that presently most of the farmers have hose made abroad. This study was designed to test the change of outside diameter and unit Iength, and to measure the pressure Ioss for three different kinds of hoses made domestically and one made in Japan. The resulte are as follows; 1. The three kinds of Korean-made hoses showed an increase in the length and a decrease in the outside diameter as the spraying pressure increase. The rate of change of the length ranged from 3.5% to 1.6% and the rate of change of the outside diameter from 3.5% to 1.4% respectively. 2. As the length of hose increases, the pressure loss was $3kg/cm^2$ at the end of a 100m of the hose made in Japan, while it was $7-10kg/cm^2$ for Korean-made hoses. 3. The Korean-made hoses were not broken under $27-28kg/cm^2$ of spraying pressure. 4. As a conclusion, the Korean-made hoses can safely be used under continuous rated pressure of the power sprayer, but they can not properly be used for the case of cooperative controlling system where a long hose is reguired because of the heaviness of the hoses and the narrowness of the inside diametar. Hence, it is highly recommended to improve the Korean-made hoses to be used for such a situation.
