In the Majiayou orchard area of Xinrong Planting and Breeding Professional Cooperative in Guangfeng District, Shangrao City, an agricultural drone took off stably under the remote control of technicians, and flew back and forth over the Majiayou fruit tree flexibly and freely. The huge airflow pushes the pesticide to spread evenly and spray on the grapefruit tree in the form of a mist. “This is the application of high technology to agriculture, which saves man-hours, labor, and pesticides!” The people watching the scene gave thumbs up and praised.
Zhu Zong, head of the Xinrong Plantation and Breeding Professional Cooperative in Guangfeng District, Shangrao City, said that in May this year, the Majiayou Association of Guangfeng District visited and studied abroad, and found that some citrus orchards used drones to spray pesticides at high altitude, let us open up vision. Thinking of the lack of manpower in my orchard, everyone together, the association became the first person who dared to eat crabs – bought two drones.
“One of them, our cooperative will use it first. We thought about buying it and trying it out, and found that there are too many benefits. Like my base, the pesticides on nearly 500 acres of fruit trees can be sprayed in one day. If there is no drone, spraying It takes 7 workers a week to complete these pesticides.” Mr. Zhu said, “In the past, the spraying was all done manually. In summer, the temperature was high and the sun was in the sun for a long time, which often caused back pain and was very hard. UAV spraying, UAV operation not only saves time and effort, but also has better effects, and it will be popular in the Majiayou Base in Guangfeng District in the future.”
The staff of Guangzhou Jifei Technology Co., Ltd., who operated the drone on site, told reporters that according to the set altitude, speed, and route, technicians can start the drone to carry out pesticide spraying operations over fruit trees with one click. When the drone is operating, the rotor generates a huge downward rotating force, and the pesticide droplets are evenly scattered on all parts of the fruit tree, and the adhesion effect of the drug will be better. At present, it is widely used in fruit trees, such as navel orange, Majiayou and so on.
According to the staff of Guangzhou Jifei Technology Co., Ltd., the terrain of mountain orchards is complex, and agricultural drones can travel on various routes, and can spray 100 acres in one hour, and the efficiency is 20 times that of manual labor.
“Using drones for pesticide spraying is safe and time-saving, with better effects and cost savings, creating a precedent for the innovative management model of fruit trees in Guangfeng District.” High technology will empower agriculture, promote sustainable development of agriculture, and create greater economic value for farmers.
