Data is gathered from the sensors, which includes GPS coordinates. 
  • allows farmers to better plan where crops are being planted to maximize land usage and crop variability
  • better mapping also increases water efficiency and fertilizer usage

Agricultural drones have the ability to carry large amounts of liquid as their payload and can be operated more safely]]> 2018-05-06 17:30:22 UTC https://padlet.com/vaneeshabanu/yug3gss9wc9b/wish/258323405 ysharon29 https://padlet.com/vaneeshabanu/yug3gss9wc9b/wish/258323744 Irrigation
drones with thermal sensors can identify which parts of a field are dry or need improvements. 
  • allow the calculation of the vegetation index, which describes the relative density and health of the cro
  • show the heat signature
  • the amount of energy or heat the crop emits

  • Extensive farming with indigenous knowledge and tools
  • Indigenous tools like axe, hoe, and stick
  • Method: Slash & Burn, and Shifting Cultivation
  • Cattle raisin helps to create fallow land
  • Absence of accountability and responsibility to the Environment
  • Lacked by surplus production

Through the use of advanced sensors and digital imaging capabilities, farmers are able to use these drones to help them gather a richer picture of their fields. Information gathered from such equipment may prove useful in improving crop yields and farm efficiency. vaneeshabanu https://padlet.com/vaneeshabanu/yug3gss9wc9b/wish/260197034 2018-05-13 07:35:44 UTC https://padlet.com/vaneeshabanu/yug3gss9wc9b/wish/260197034
