DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF LOWCOST HIGH ENDURANCE AGRI DRONE FOR SPRAYING PESTICIDES ON ARECA NUT

Abstract: The use of drones in agriculture has become increasingly popular in recent years, with the ability to spray pesticides being one of their most useful applications. Arecanut, also known as betel nut, is an important cash crop in many parts of the world, and the use of drones for pesticide spraying can greatly improve its yield and quality. This technology allows for more precise and efficient spraying, reducing the amount of pesticides needed and minimizing the risk of exposure to humans and wildlife. Additionally, drones can access hard-to-reach areas and can cover large areas of land in a short amount of time. The use of drones for pesticide spraying in arecanut cultivation can lead to increased profitability for farmers and improved environmental sustainability.
