Abstract

India is a country of diversity. The primary occupation of the country is agriculture. In our country there is perfect weather conditions. There are significant challenges due to climatic changes that effects multiple sectors, which includes agriculture. According to food and agriculture organisation (FAO), the food production has to be increased by 70% by 2050 to meet food requirement of the population. The answer to this challenge is by introducing the new technology in the sector. In detailed introduction of IOT, UAVs and many technologies. Precision agriculture's tasks like smart spraying and aerial crop monitoring etc. Use of software development kit (SDKs) in UAVs will connect it to the mobile phones which makes farmer's ease of use. Introducing GPS in the UAV's makes discrete time broadcasts of its global coordinates, which also makes UAVs to fly at same altitude, autopilot, auto home return. By using sensors like collision avoidance sensors (CAS), gyroscope, accelerometer, magnetometer, barometer, range finder, helps the UAVs for anti-collision, balancing, determining speed, range respectively. By using thermal imaging camera, farmers can see which part of the field was affected by pests. By using the cameras farmers can monitor their crops, they can even survey their field. In this paper, we introduce the AI technology in the UAVs to help the farmers. Finally, we outline UAV based solutions for the challenges in precision agriculture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
