Benefits of Agriculture Drone
Dr. Goenka also told that the cost of farming is reduced with the help of agriculture drones, as it requires 25 percent less medicine in comparison to the normal method. This directly benefits the farmers. Apart from this, the leaves are also cleaned, due to which photosynthesis is good. As a result, the plant absorbs sunlight better and the plant’s productivity increases by 12 to 15 percent.
How to double farmers income?
Dr. Goenka says that the Prime Minister of the country also repeatedly talks about doubling the income of farmers. Now the prices of crops will not double, so to increase the income, there is need to reduce the input cost and increase the output i.e. production and proper use of technology. His company has done drone demonstrations at 200 places. They claim that it has been made foolproof, and has all the radar and features.
Apart from this, it also has a huge model of entrepreneurship i.e. self-employment. The farmer goes to the village with a drone, takes its training and when he learns well, when he sprays it in the fields of others, he charges 200 to 500 rupees. He says that the farmer can also earn a good amount of money annually. This is the reason that to promote the use of drones in agriculture, the government is also giving subsidy along with bringing many new schemes.
Nano Liquid Urea is used in agriculture drones.
IFFCO, the largest company that makes 45 kg of urea sack fertilizer, got 500 bottles, which is very beneficial for the farmers. This will save their transportation cost. Generally in crops, urea is sprayed on 70 percent of the plants from above and 30 percent from below. That is why when it is sprayed by drone, the plant is healthy, the right amount of urea is available and the production is high.
Beneficial for farmers’ health
Dr. Goenka says that this technique is also related to social concerns and is also beneficial for the health of the farmers. He says that every year in India, about 58,000 farmers die from snake bites alone. Apart from this, 3.5 to 4 lakh people also suffer from other health problems due to direct spraying of chemicals. They will not come in direct contact with the chemical when sprayed from the drone. Apart from this, the drone will keep the youth connected with the village and will also give them an opportunity to become entrepreneurs.
