Digital agriculture drones
Print Edition
Throughout the hundreds years of world history, agriculture is important for human beings all the times because it can let us to have an opportunity to get food sources and vegetables. However in ancient times people always got hungry since the lack of food, mainly because their harvest mainly relied on the sun, the rain and their luck. Especially they didn’t have digital agriculture like us.
With the improvement of our agriculture related science technology, human could cultivate varies kinds of fruits and vegetables. The United Nations predicts that Earth’s population will be 9.7 billion by 2050. If everyone on the planet is to be fed, improvements need to be made to agriculture.
Experts believe that drone use will expand around the world in the coming years. I am crazy about planes, drones and other flying vehicles. Why use a digital agricultural drones? I think in the future digital drones could be a important part of the digital agriculture.
Agricultural drones use a lot of composite materials to make the drone lighter and let it travel in air for a longer time. A lot of technologies are used inside, like cameras. RGB cameras can capture very clear colors of a plant in that way farmers can study the color of the leaves and check how healthy is it. Thermal cameras can check plants heat and soil heat to keep it at the best temperature.
Agricultural drones will be a huge help to farmers around the world. Some researchers are building agricultural drones with robotic arms. These drones could someday pick pests off plants. Agriculture drones can look at 200 acres of farm land in about 20 minutes.
