Agricultural Drones: Transforming Farming Practices with Advanced Technology

Abstract: The agricultural sector is experiencing a substantial transformation with the introduction of drone technology. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly referred to as drones, are revolutionizing agricultural practices by enabling efficient data acquisition, crop surveillance, and resource allocation. This review paper aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of agricultural drone technology, examining their mechanisms, classifications, applications, the role of autonomous drones, and the algorithms governing their operations. The results highlight the potential of drones to enhance agricultural productivity, optimize resource utilization, and promote sustainable farming practices.
