How about using drones to spray pesticides on farmland?

Intelligent agricultural machinery

In a test field, unmanned tractors move forward, reverse, and turn freely.

“Dozens of Beidou satellites provide positioning services for it, integrating intelligent driving algorithms and models provided by the Smart Agriculture Team of Shandong University of Technology (Shandong Kexiang Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd.), and controlling the tractor’s travel accuracy to be up to plus or minus 2.5 cm, equivalent to the size of a matchbox. Not only can it avoid seedling pressing by agricultural machinery, but it can also achieve automatic obstacle avoidance and emergency braking, greatly ensuring work safety.” Hao

Fengzhen, a staff member of Anyang County Agricultural and Rural Bureau, told reporters, “The farm is equipped with intelligent agricultural machinery equipment such as tractors, cultivators, seeders, and harvesters with automatic cruise systems. A collaborative operation management and control system for agricultural machinery equipment based on artificial intelligence and cloud platforms has been built, achieving deep integration of agricultural machinery equipment and artificial intelligence, and fully automatic operation of crop cultivation and harvest.”

Upon arriving at the farm, the reporter saw a large self-propelled sprinkler irrigation system that was hundreds of meters long and more than 3 meters high, automatically rotating slowly around the center of the farmland. The sprinkler that hung under the tower sprayed fine mist, moistening the wheat seedlings. The absence of farmers at the scene completely overturned the old way of watering the land in which everyone managed their own land and flooded it. Now, “New Farmers” only need a mobile phone, enter the program, and click the button to control the automatic operation of the equipment, achieving autonomous, accurate, and water-saving irrigation.

“UAV intelligent plant protection is our strong point. Using intelligent drones for aerial plant protection of crops is highly efficient and effective,” said Zhou Hanxue, head of the “unmanned farm” and director of the administrative and comprehensive department of Quanfeng Aviation Plant Protection Technology Co., Ltd, “Quanfeng is a national level modern enterprise integrating agricultural drone research and development, production, training, and socialized services. It is the chairman unit of the National Aviation Plant Protection Technology Innovation Alliance, and the pilot unit of the Aviation Plant Protection Key Laboratory of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs. Currently, it is expanding into the entire agricultural service industry chain.”

The intelligent “unmanned farm” management method will significantly reduce the cost of agricultural production operations, increase operational efficiency by 25% to 40%, and reduce operational energy consumption by 10%. It effectively avoids the uneven width and insufficient depth of operations, as well as the phenomenon of missed cultivation, missed sowing, and missed harvest, and significantly improves the quality of operations.
