Digital Technology Services
One of the key challenges in agriculture is attracting youth to the sector. To encounter this, the sector must integrate technology into the agri value-chain. CIC pioneered in introducing digital technology to farming in Sri Lanka.
Drones to make Agriculture attractive to youth
We pioneered in introducing the use of drone technology in farming in order to monitor crop growth and to promote the precise application of costly agricultural inputs. Drones are gradually transforming traditional farming systems in Sri Lanka by offering a range of benefits that improve productivity, reduce waste, and optimize resource use efficiency.
Salient Features of Drone Application
Crop Monitoring: Real-time surveillance of crop growth, early identification of pests & diseases and other deficiencies in crops.
Multispectral imaging: Drones can detect plant stresses caused by nutrient deficiencies and water shortages, allowing timely interventions.
Precision Spraying: Drones can apply pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers with unmatched accuracy, reducing environmental pollution. By assessing plant health, drones ensure that spraying is made precisely wherever it needs optimizing the use of resources .
Thermal Imaging: Drones equipped with thermal sensors can detect temperature variations in crops, helping to identify stressed areas or areas that need immediate attention.
Land Surveying: Drones are equipped to perform land surveying, providing accurate topographical maps and measuring plant densities for planning cultivation practices.
Irrigation Management: Drones can monitor moisture levels across different zones of a field, providing farmers with data to optimize irrigation schedules and conserve water.
