Abstract
Abstract— Drones have been widely applied in the precision agriculture sector in the past few years. Incorporating artificial intelligence (AI), sensors, microcontrollers, and the Internet of Things (IoT) into the drones can help overcome the challenges faced by the farmers, such as livestock monitoring, wide land area, crop spraying, and in-depth crop health analysis. In this paper, several drone applications in precision agriculture are discussed, including the hardware and techniques involved. In addition, commercial agricultural drones available in the market to date are presented. The publications trend regarding drone application in precision agriculture is also included and based on reviewing more than 50 articles, a quadcopter-type drone is the most used drone in this sector, and seed planting is the least explored drone application area. Keywords—camera, crop monitoring, drone, mapping, spraying system
