Abstract

Today, drone systems have become an emerging technology for agriculture applications as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). They help the farmers in crop monitoring and production. They are used to reduce human resources and to control pollution in the agriculture field. In real-time, drones are suitable for working in the agriculture field during strong winds and even in various climate conditions. This chapter proposes an amphibious unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) system design and implementation for agriculture applications. Drones are useful to avoid deforestation in India. The estimated simulation results are used to calculate the drones' efficiency using their weight, flying time, and power consumption. In this chapter, three different UAV system phases have been discussed (i.e., design of drones, the building of payload, and evaluation of drone using the software). This chapter helps the beginners understand the necessary calculations of the drone design along with thrust values, select the propellers sizes, and calculate the drone's flying time, stability, and power consumption.
