#10. Precision agriculture

At last, you can make a profit using a drone in precision agriculture. Drones are very helpful for crop surveillance in agriculture because they significantly reduce the costs and time required for such a job.


When using a drone in precision agriculture, it must be equipped with a specialized camera for the infrared video that can capture the specific wavelengths. These cameras produce specific contrasting colors while shooting, and according to these recordings, the operators can see the overall health of crops in a certain area. Also, drones help farmers in verification and problem diagnosis in their fields. In some cases, they can also be used in delivering spot treatment.


All these operations can help farmers reduce plant damages, cut costs, and have the higher yield. On the other side, drone pilots can make a lot of money working for them. There is a mutual benefit as both sides get to profit from this deal.
