Abstract

Precision agriculture has greatly progressed by increasing crop output in recent years. Unfortunately, diseases caused by pests and insects often lead to big losses in fields, reducing crop yield. To fix this, fertilizers and pesticides improve crops and control insects and pests. People are worried about the harmful impact of pests on human health, food security, and the environment. Drones operated by people are being used more and more to spray pesticides, reducing the health risks of doing it by hand. The drone uses advanced path planning and GPS to move through complicated areas, covering big areas and treating infested regions well. A cloud-based system for control, monitoring, and data analysis gives useful information through data analysis, letting people follow pest population changes, find repeating patterns, and use good pest control methods. The autonomous pest control drone fixes the problems with traditional pest control methods.
