Drone technology tier agriculture application is becoming a major trend for application among farmers and is one of the key technologies for agricultural industrial revolution 4.0 (IR4.0), Drone technology can help the yield of farmers and the productivity of a country. Many drone technology mechanizations arc already being introduced to the farmer. especially the fertilizer and crop protection chemical spraying in Kemubu Agricultural Development Authority (KADA). However, spraying activities using the traditional method in a paddy field are regarded as the riskiest operations for operators since they are exposed and must deal with toxic chemicals and regularly expose them for an extended amount of time.
