Impact of Drone Technology in Agriculture

Abstract

This work defines the benefits of drone technology in agriculture, and their application areas, describing from examples how drones function on fields and also highlights the different features of drone for managing the crops by applying precise cameras to identify pests and water shortages. For agricultural applications, summarized smart/intelligent farming techniques are being utilized such as exercise of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The UAVs technique is combination of both communication and information technologies, robots, artificial intelligence, big data, and the Internet of Things. The article concludes by recommending that more farmers work with drone technique to improved their agricultural results. In this, we consider the recent trends of research to employ agricultural UAVs, control technologies, equipment, and development.
