Abstract :

Few attempts have been made, especially in the Indian subcontinent, to modernize agricultural practices such as seeding and fertilizer delivery. In an attempt to increase efficiency, we have successfully tackled the seeding process by employing a manual RC controlled UAV. Our prototype has an on–board automated seeding mechanism capable of precise seed dispersal at a pre–caliated flow rate, automatically accounting for factors such as altitude, ground position and wind speed. We intend to further develop our prototype into a ‘generic automated aerial platform’ capable of precisely dispersing seeds, fertilizer, pesticides or any mixture of the same.
