Fire detection and pesticide spraying using drone

Abstract: In India, 73% of rural people depends on the agricultures and forests. Due to forest fire issues and diseases caused by insects and pests in fields, they have faced heavy loss and it also reduces the crops productivity. In order to enhance the crop quality chemical fertilizers and pesticides are used to kill the pests and insects. According to the research of World Health Organization (WHO) about a million of people are ill affected by manually spraying the pesticides and fertilizers to the crop, to reduce these threats and huge losses to ecosystems. To overcome this problem the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) aircrafts can be used to detect the fire at the early stage and to spray the chemical pesticides and fertilizers in order to avoid the health issues for people who are involved in spraying manually. Also, we have many developments in agriculture for increasing the production of crop using drone. The agriculture UAV drone used to expand the all areas of field which the drone will be able to cover it and the drones are highly capable, and also includes fertilizer and pesticides spraying, seed sowing, mapping etc. The market for agriculture UAV drones is expected to grow continuously by relating the technologies.
