Abstract
In recent years, the agriculture industry has witnessed a significant transformation with the integration of cutting-edge technologies to enhance productivity, efficiency, and sustainability. Among these technologies, sensors have emerged as indispensable tools for monitoring various agricultural parameters and optimizing farming practices. Current advancements and technological improvement in the sector of agriculture requires modern day machineries-drones. Drones technologies proved to save the water, pesticides, and herbicides, maintain the soil fertility also helps to cut excess implication of man power along with increase the output and raise the standard of quality. Robots, artificial intelligence, big data, robotics, and the internet of things are all combined in UAVs. Agricultural UAVs have shown to be quite effective when in use, and they are now extensively employed in many facets of agriculture, such as seed sowing, growth evaluation, and mapping, as well as the application of pesticides and fertilizers. It is becoming essential in the field of agronomical research, they are quite susceptible to variation in soil, climate and alteration to physicochemical changes. The aim of this paper is to review the usage of Drones, UAVs and remote sensing in agriculture applications. On the basis of literature, we found that a lot of advantages are witnessed in agriculture in using Drone, UAV and remote sensing. This paper summarizes the current state of three technologies for agricultural uses, including crop health monitoring and farm operations like, weed management, evapotranspiration estimation, spraying etc. In order to improve their agricultural production, more farmers should invest in contemporary equipment and technology, according to the research articleâs conclusion.
