Abstract

Purpose. Analysis of the problems and prospects of the use of drones in agriculture and demonstrate examples of the use of drones for precision agriculture and soil conservation. Methods. Theoretical analysis and synthesis, photography, mapping. Results. Some problems and prospects of using UAVs in precision farming. Shows an example of the use of photography to assess the erosion of soils and the spatial heterogeneity of soil cover. Conclusions. This assessment predicts losses from the crop shortfall due to lower fertility of eroded soils and further adjust the carrying out of technological operations in order to «align» in the field of productivity, as well as to plan soil conservation measures in order to prevent further losses.
