Media has made drones scary, but they can be useful tools to many industries, such as agriculture.
Drones give farmers a better ability to see problems and target various treatments, as opposed to blanket solutions. Since these are open source, farmers can collaborate on uses. Because farmers aren’t corporations, like big Ag, they’re allowed to use drone technology.
Different crops have differing sensor needs. These inexpensive farm drones can be quickly & easily modified to suit the crop or the aspect of it they wish to monitor. This kind of efficiency will help smaller farmers compete with big Ag.
