Spray Performance Case Study of an Agriculture Drone in Pineapple Plantation

The quality of spraying or efficacy is important in agriculture as it impacts the environment and the cost of operation. Over-application of a product will affect the surrounding area, leading to runoffs and wastage. Plants require a specific amount of product for optimum growth, which applies to fe...

description The quality of spraying or efficacy is important in agriculture as it impacts the environment and the cost of operation. Over-application of a product will affect the surrounding area, leading to runoffs and wastage. Plants require a specific amount of product for optimum growth, which applies to fertiliser and herbicide use included in this study. A case study at a pineapple plantation was conducted, referencing both the product direction of use and feedback from the farmers at the plantation based on the agriculture strategies practised. Using a quadrotor drone with a 16-litre capacity with two types of nozzles (flat and cone) for the herbicide and fertiliser application with flight parameters of 2 meters in height and 2-4 m/s flight speed resulted in a coverage of 20-30 L/acre. Documentation of the practice is recorded here for reference to the practice in Malaysia's pineapple plantation.
