Aerial video of farmland is incredibly helpful to be able to map and analyze fluctuations in precipitation, temperature, crop output, and more. By mapping geographic and geologic features of current and potential farmland, scientists and farmers can work together to create more effective and efficient agricultural techniques. Drones make it possible to analyze soil data combined with historical farming practices to determine what are the best crops to plant, where they should be planted, and how to maintain ideal soil nutrition levels. Many agricultural organizations, such as the U.S. Department of Agriculture, are now utilizing this method of information gathering.
