          n the ever-changing world where
        
        
          technology and agriculture are
        
        
          constantly intertwined these days, there
        
        
          is yet another piece of cutting-edge
        
        
          equipment that is really peaking the
        
        
          interest of farmers.  The Unmanned
        
        
          Aerial Vehicle (UAV), or more commonly
        
        
          known as a drone, is quickly becoming a

          of using a drone are growing
        
        
          rapidly, particularly in the
        
        
          agriculture sector, because
        
        
          a farmer’s field is a perfect
        
        
          setting to fly one of these
