With the advancement of the times and technology, the use of drones in agriculture and forestry to replace manual pesticide application has gradually been recognized by the market. However, drones also have their advantages as well as disadvantages, only by well understanding which, can they serve us better.
Merits of Drone Spraying
Drones spraying saves time and labor
The speed of the drone application operation is quite fast. It takes dozens of minutes to do the work, which is equivalent to the workload of one day or even two days of manual work, and the efficiency is quite high. For example, when working on ten acres of land, it takes about 2 days for a single person to spray pesticides manually, and it can be easily completed in about 20 minutes using a plant protection drone. Therefore, the efficiency of drones is dozens of times higher than that of humans. In addition, most of the diseases and insect pests caused by crops will break out in a short period of time. The sooner the prevention and control is done, the damage to crops can be minimized and yield reduction can be avoided. Therefore, UAV operations are time-saving, labor-saving, fast and efficient.
