Electronic Devices Used in Agriculture
The agriculture sector is hard to work but one can make their fieldwork easy and
smart with the use of machinery which is expensive, and electronic devices for the
proper growth of the crop.
Following are some of the Smart Electronic Devices used in Agriculture
Agriculture Drone
Soil Moisture Sensor
Nitrogen Sensor
LED Grow Lights
Agriculture Drone
A drone is an unnamed smart electronic device that can fly and control with a remote
control device. A drone has many uses. Let’s have a brief look at the use of the
drone in agriculture like;
a) Photography & Video of the Crop & Land
Drone very smartly can take an aerial view of a crop. It can take
various shorts from
different angles of the crops. And the easy thing is that it can easily be
controlled with remote control by a single expert man. Similarly, we can monitor the
growth of unwanted weeds in the crops, and also the unhealthy part of a crop. Based
on the images and videos, a farmer can decide to take action for the healthy growth
of his crop. So, it is a smart way for crop farming.
b) Drone For Spray
The very vide use of smart electronic device is its use for agricultural
purposes. Based on the images, a farmer can decide to take appropriate action to
make his crop growth healthy. A drone has equipped with a reservoir that can fill
with fertilizers or pesticides or herbicides. So, with this modern agricultural
drone, a farmer can spray the pesticides over his crop. Similarly, a farmer can
spread fertilizers over the crops field for the better growth of the crop. A long
field of a crop can observe with the drone, and it can help to point out the
unhealthy area of the crop. After that, a farmer can spray pesticides or herbicides
on that specific spotted area with the help of the drone within the smart time,
without extra labour work as well.
Soil Moisture Sensor
An electronic device that can use to check the volume of water in
the soil. It is a necessary device to check the humidity of the field soil, which is
a better thing for the better growth of the crop. Due to weather conditions, the
moisture of the soil disturbs which has tested for better growth. Various brands of
this soil moisture sensor are available in the market.
. Nitrogen Sensor
Nitrogen sensor is an electronic device to measure the percentage
of the nitrogen existence in the soil even in the tiny plants. All types of crops
need nitrogen. Nitrogen is also present in the air. All living organisms need
nitrogen. Surplus existence of nitrogen or deficiency of nitrogen is not suitable
for the growth of any crop. A healthy crop gives you prosperity as a result.
LED Grow Lights
LED grow lights are helpful in gardening as well as in farming. The spectrum of the
lights gives warmth to the tiny plants to grow well. In open fields, night time
there must be a need for LED lights to observe the crop against forest beasts. They
can damage the crops by loitering over there. Similarly, some crops like potatoes,
sugar cane, and peas, can be ruined by forest animals.
