Use of Drones and Satellites in Agriculture
The use of drones and satellites in agriculture is a reality, although we are currently at the crossroads of quickly and efficiently exploiting the information obtained to render it useful to farmers, selecting the most appropriate and versatile tool for each situation. In this sense, water management is one of the key issues in agriculture in which these new technologies can provide solutions, such as where to manage irrigation water, maximizing its efficiency, adapting crops to climate change, and facilitating the worldwide increase of food production. From the Organizing Committee of the "III National Symposium of Horticultural Engineering", dedicated in this edition to the "Use of Drones and Satellites in Agriculture", we invite you to participate in this event that will take place in February 2018, in Lugo. The section of Horticultural Engineering of the Spanish Society of Horticultural Sciences is the organizer of the event, acting the University of Santiago de Compostela - Campus Terra as local organizers.
