Drone fertilization and medication!

I have been planting land all my life with my face facing the loess and my back facing the sky. I didn’t expect to be able to fertilize and apply medicine with just a little finger now! “Wu Xingjun, a farmer in Xinfeng Village, Nanxiang Town, sighed at the magic of” technology farming “as he looked at the drone fertilizing in the distance.

Under the operation of technician Master Wu, the drone carrying 50 liters of fertilizer took off steadily, and after hovering above the rice field, it began to evenly sprinkle the fertilizer. The drone has a flight altitude of about 4 meters each time, which ensures the atomization of fertilizer and reduces the impact of natural wind on fertilizer. “Master Wu said,” We all have drone driver’s licenses and strictly follow drone driving safety standards and regulations every time.

Meng Yuming, an agricultural cadre from Xinfeng Village, introduced: “After the three seasons, rice has entered a critical period of field management. In previous years, at this time, we would organize agricultural cadres from each village to carry buckets to the fields to apply medicine and fertilizer. The traditional top dressing method is very laborious, and coupled with the hot weather, people can’t eat it for a while.

Nowadays, with the help of advanced navigation operating systems, technicians only need to select the range of operations required based on the punctuation box on their mobile phones, and drones will independently plan the optimal path based on the location. Compared to traditional manual operation methods, drones have advantages such as uniform spraying, good atomization effect, and being not limited by crop growth and terrain. This year, a total of 1055 acres of rice were planted in Nanxiang Town, mainly concentrated in Xinfeng Village. Previously, 20 people were required to take turns to apply medicine or fertilizer. After using drones for operation, it is expected that 300 acres of land can be fertilized in one day.
Meng Yuming stated that to ensure the safety of fertilization and pesticide spraying operations, drones will prepare in advance and pay attention to changes in the weather before operation. Especially during the operation, if the wind suddenly increases and exceeds level 3, fertilization should be suspended to prevent the drift of the medicine and affect the safety of surrounding plants and drones.
