Corn is grown all over the world for food production, trade and to supply raw materials to various sectors. Sweet corn The plant grows on cobs on a long, herbaceous stem. For example, wind, rain and wild animals can cause corn to become thin or fall over. This negatively affects the growth and productivity of plants.

On traditional farming methods tilt To solve this problem, it is necessary to conduct long-term examination of the fields. A research team in China revealed that Unmanned Aerial Vehicle-based hyperspectral imaging methods could be useful for tilt detection. According to the team, thanks to this method the fields have disappeared physical examinations The costs and time requirements will decrease significantly.

Corn control will become easier

from Yangzhou University Dr. Qian Sun“UAV-based hyperspectral imaging technology enables rapid and non-destructive assessment of crops suffering from blight, improving plant health monitoring and agricultural management,” he said.

This technology allows drones to take action with minimal human intervention is investigating. The drone not only captures images with a camera, but also collects detailed data from multiple spectral bands. To accurately assess corn recovery, researchers examined both bed canopy height and physiological activities such as chlorophyll production. This method can help farmers optimize the yield of their fields.

Over time, such technologies will emerge become more common may come. In the past, drones have been used to monitor fires and plant seeds in hard-to-reach areas.
