Agro-based Pesticide Spraying Quad Copter using Flight Controller

— One of the prime sources of income in India is Agriculture., The field of agriculture is depending upon some of factors like pesticides, fertilizers, etc. which can be control by providing proper treatment to crops. Pesticides bot only increase the productivity of crops but also effects on human health. So, the main aim is to use drone for agricultural purpose like spraying pesticides. In this paper, we will discuss different architecture based on drone or UAV technology. The use of pesticides in agriculture is essential to agriculture and it would be easy if intelligent machines such as robots used. This paper gives an idea about technologies used to reduce human efforts in various farm works like spraying of UREA, spraying of fertilizers and pesticides etc. This paper describes design and development of quad copter and the spraying unit mechanism. The discussed system involves designing a prototype which uses simple and cost-effective equipment including BLDC motor, Flight controller ESC units, Battery, Pump etc.
