Nowadays, cultivating agricultural lands has become a great burden to farmers because of the high cost of labour involved in spraying fertiliser, insecticides, pesticides, herbicides. To overcome these difficulties, drones are employed to reduce cost effectiveness as well as provide proper control by monitoring the crop, thereby giving the required data to control pests, weeds, and diseases in crops. 
Agriculture
Here is some common application where drones are used in agriculture:
The key benefits of agriculture drones are:
Soil and field analysis Drones such as fixed wing drones are designed to fly over an extended period of time hence used in survey larger area of field quickly and precisely. Drone is used to give detail such as moisture content in the soil. Amount of nutrients required for the soilUniform spraying Drones are used for better crop management and cost effectiveness hence they are involved in spraying fertiliser , insecticide, pesticide and herbicides uniformly throughout the field thereby increasing the crop yield. Monitoring Agriculture Drones equipped with digital cameras and sensor that helps to monitor crop health in real-time, apply inputs with precision, and reduce the amount of labour required for farming operations. In addition, drones can be used to scout for pests, diseases, and weeds.
Seed Planting Seed planting using drone technology is a relatively new technology as compared to other drones applications in agriculture. when this emerging technology get passed in testing phase can would further strengthen the effectiveness and efficiency of the agriculture industry by making it much easier to plant seeds and deliver other required elements to the soil.Check Crops Health Checking crop health at regular intervals is much needed to avoid rotting or disruption in the crop. Drones can help survey the fields and crop areas through infrared mapping. Farmers can get easy updates on how their crops are growing and transforming. Prevents Overuse of Chemicals Pesticides and herbicides can be detrimental to crops. When sprayed in surplus. It can temper the soil’s fertility and crop quality. The use of flow sensors controls the amount of fertiliser.
Monitoring livestock Drones can monitor livestock farms and reduce the use of horses and trucks. Drones are equipped with thermal sensors to locate lost cattle and detect sick or injured animals. They can also calculate their exact numbers.Monitoring of the irrigation system The entire irrigation network is monitored efficiently and any problems are identified in real-time using drones with thermal imaging systems. Farmers are better able to maximise drainage and create backup plans to deal with problems when they have access to real-time information through drones.Agric-drones are easy to control. The maintenance cost of the drone is less. The detail produced by drone act as a perfect record for insurance claiming.
