ABSTRACT
The need for food is rising as a result of the enormous population growth. Farmers were utilizing traditional methods, but they were insufficient to meet these demands. New automated techniques (using drone technology) were consequently introduced. These innovative techniques supplied the world's food needs while simultaneously creating jobs for billions of people. The technology behind drones conserves excessive amounts of water, pesticides, and herbicides, maintains soil fertility, and aids in the effective use of labor, which raises production and improves quality. Reviewing drone use in agricultural applications is the goal of this research. Based on the literature, we discovered that a lot of agriculture applications can be carried out using drones. As for the methodology,
We utilized a thorough analysis from a different study conducted in this field. This paper provides an overview of drone technology's current position for agricultural applications, including crop health monitoring and farm activities like weed control, evapotranspiration estimation, spraying, etc. The study's conclusion urges more farmers to use drone technology to increase the quality of their agricultural yields.
