It may be in the industry for a while now but companies are stepping up their game and deploying technology to increase productivity. They are incorporating more advanced methods into farming available in the market to deliver more yield as food consumption are on the rise. Increasing work efficiency and productivity, decreasing workload and production costs, are a few of top uses the drones have to offer in the agriculture industry.

What lies ahead . . . . .

With the ability to conduct soil health scans, monitor crop health, apply fertilizers, irrigate fields, track weather and project potential yields and even collating and analysing date for instantaneous action, drones hold the potential to transform and revolutionize the agriculture industry. By mechanizing farming and eliminating the costs of human errors, farmers are able to react to counter possible threats such as outbreaks enabling them to maximize yield and in turn income.
