Applying Drone-based Spatial Mapping to Help Growers Manage Crop Diseases

Phytophthora blight (Phytophthora capsici) is one of the major soilborne diseases threatening many vegetable crops including squash. The disease results in severe epidemics and yield losses due to a rapid spread pathogen associated with wet weather soil waterlogging. Implementing drone-based spatial mapping software elevation tools can assist growers evaluating land levelling for uniform distribution water mitigate potential incidence. technology has great advantages: rapid, precise, labor-cost effective. Our result implicate Extension professionals application managing their control efficiently.
