Worldwide agricultural drone markets are poised to achieve significant growth with the use of cameras on stable flying platforms that are used to help implement precision farming. Crop visualization lets farmer’s better control and isolate areas for spraying and lets the drones do the spraying.
A complete report on global agricultural drone market spread across 288 pages, analyzing major leaders and providing 127 tables and figures is now available here. According to the report, the worldwide market for agricultural drones is $494 million and is anticipated to reach $3.69 billion by 2022.
According to lead author of the “Agricultural Drones Market Shares, Strategies, and Forecasts, Worldwide, 2016 to 2022” study, “Transparency is one of the benefits of IoT that drones bring to digital farming. The benefits of digital farming are higher productivity and more efficient use of land, water and fertilizer. Transparency in farming is being asked for by consumers. Consumers want to know where their food came from, how much water and chemicals were used, and when and how the food was harvested. They want to know about consistent refrigeration during transport.”
Agricultural drone technology has reached a level of maturity that has put these systems at the forefront of farming modernization. Farmers around the entire world are adapting to drone availability, using aerial cameras to visualize plants. Use cases are evolving rapidly. Video, specialized video, targeted video, and agricultural spraying systems are offered.
