Crop Spraying Via Agricultural Drones Enhancing Farm Productivity
Agricultural drones are being increasingly deployed in farms to improve crop productivity, as multi-spectral images captured by them offer vital data, such as soil and field analysis, crop growth, hydric-stress area, and health assessment, on real-time basis. The wide range of data helps farmers in locating underperforming areas, identifying crop-related diseases, and managing crops efficiently. Thus, the booming demand for enhanced crop productivity, owing to the soaring global population, will boost the deployment of agricultural drones in the forthcoming years. Moreover, the surging use of such drones for crop spraying will propel the agricultural drones market at a CAGR of 25.0% during 2019–2024. The market was valued at $1.5 billion in 2018 and it is expected to reach $6.2 billion by 2024. Deployment of agricultural drones for crop spraying allows farmers to monitor faraway locations on their agrarian lands on a real-time basis. These drones help in ensuring efficient sprayin...
