The most advanced technologies are being applied more and more in the production, especially in the field of agriculture. At present, farmers in Minnesota, USA can sit still and still worry about the crop. This is due to the use of unmanned aerial vehicles for field surveys from above. This approach allows farmers to quickly and efficiently monitor crop progress.
"The plane can tell where plants are lacking in nitrogen, water or pests," said Jerry Johnson, director of Farm Intelligence .
With a weight of 1.3 kg, a unmanned aerial vehicle can easily fly across the field. Sensors and camcorders installed on the wing will provide the farmer with high-altitude imagery.
" Unmanned aerial vehicles can detect problems that the eye can not see ," said John Engle, a farmer . Thanks to that, I can offer timely solutions.
Each unmanned aircraft cost $ 25,000, the cost of surveying each hectare of land is about $ 25.
Last year, farm intelligence unmanned aerial vehicles were used on 19 fields in Minnesota. This figure has increased tenfold this year and is expected to rise even higher.
