Utilização de aeronaves remotamente pilotadas (ARP) na agricultura brasileira: uma revisão

Abstract

In Brazil, the term Precision Agriculture (AP) integrates a management system based on the spatial and temporal variation of the production unit which seeks to apply agricultural inputs in a specific way, reducing environmental impacts. This term covers current technologies used in soil, input and crop management. Thus, within this production model, modern precision methods have been increasingly used in agriculture, such as drones or UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles), which have expanded through recent improvements in computing technology and systems development. global navigation and geoprocessing. There are several tools that producers can apply to their crops to increase their productivity, such as UAVs, also known as drones, which are present on the market, facilitating the development of crop management in agriculture. Furthermore, this technology makes cultivation more efficient and sustainable and is gaining more and more space, providing producers with a data acquisition tool for efficient and quick decision- making.
