In recent years, with the expansion of UAV technology in the commercial field, UAV drone became a new research focus in the field of agriculture, using UAV as low-altitude remote sensing platform on farmland became a reasonable idea.
UAV drone can spray pesticides, pesticide spraying is the most common application of the plant protection UAV, because of its high safety, cost saving, easy operation and other advantages, makes it get people's affirmation.
Compared to the traditional plant protection work, UAV drone crop sprayer protect farmers away from pesticide and fertilizer harm, to prevent poisoning and heatstroke incidents;
Agriculture drone can spray 12.7hectacres per hour, 30 times more than traditional spraying method;
Agricultural drones can spray pesticides and fertilizer with fixed position and fixed orientation, reducing the pollution to water and soil;
The intelligent agriculture UAV drone spraying system automatically adjusts its spray according to the flying speed so that an even spray is always applied. This way, the amount of pesticide or fertilizer is precisely regulated to avoid pollution and economize operations. High degree of mist spray, the chemical fog can be pressed to all levels of the crop, can save more than 30% of pesticides;
Agricultural pesticide sprayer can adopt ultra low volume spraying technology, water consumption is only 10% of traditional spraying method;
Fertilizer drone do not influenced by terrain and crop height, remote control, low altitudes flight, no harm to crop. It can be used for all kinds of crops in farm, orchard and sterilizing in waste yard.
According to relevant sources, the future of agricultural plant protection field will be billions market space.
