4. ADVANTAGES
▪Drones offer a range of benefits to farmers in the agriculture sector, including
increased efficiency, Improved yields, and reduced costs.
▪However, there are also concerns about job loss and a lack of knowledge and
training that may be holding farmers back from adopting this technology.
▪Some agricultural tasks can be risky for humans. For example, crop dusting
with a manned aircraft is considered one of the most dangerous jobs in
agriculture.
▪Drones can fly over fields and gather data much more quickly, freeing up
farmers’ time for other tasks.

5. LIMITATIONS
▪In general,agriculture drones are more vulnerable to adverse weather
conditions. And this is one of the biggest of the disadvantages of agriculture
drones.
▪They should not fly in rain or in high humidity conditions. Fog is also bad for
operating drones.
▪Most of the drones have less flight time and covers less area. Drones having
long flight time and long range are costlier. Drones having more features are
also more expensive.
▪Need to obtain government clearance in order to use it.

6. Use Of Drone For Reforestation
▪Reforestation is defined as the act of planting new trees in an area or region
where they were cut down previously.
▪Drone reforestation is 25 times faster than conventional techniques and 80%
cheaper, according to AirSeed.
▪In 2021, the Australian office of the World Wide Fund for Nature
(WWF)partnered with Airseed to use their seeding drones to germinate and
grow 100 million trees by 2024.
▪It allows Rapid and Increased Dispense of Tree Seeds.
