In this present scenario, there are many farmers those are using new techniques to increase the crop productivity. In our country where 70% of the people are dependent on the fields. At this time farmers are using the drones for scanning of soil health, to monitor crop health, for application in fertilizer field and assist in planning irrigation schedules etc. Farmers face a huge loss due to diseases. These diseases are caused from pests and the insects, which will reduce the 468productivity of crops. Fertilizers and pesticides are used in agriculture. Unmanned aircraft vehicle are used in order to spray the water, pesticides, and insects and to avoid the health problems of human. Drones are comfortable to use and may be used the farmers easily.
