During harvest season, hectares of cotton plantations need defoliation before picking. It is getting difficult to find labor to do hand spraying work at this time of year, as it is labor intensive work and cost getting higher for local farmers.</p><p>Therefore, more and more farmers adopt XAIRCRAFT’s efficient and cost effective solution using fully autonomous UAVs and comprehensive operation management systems. P20 has gained wide range of recognition in the region through out the years. Apart from defoliation, local farmers also use P20 for pesticide and fertiliser sprayings. <a href="https://www.xa.com/en/p30">https://www.xa.com/en/p30</a></p></div>NDVI vs DVIhttps://diydrones.com/photo/ndvi-vs-dvi2014-06-12T16:27:21.000Z2014-06-12T16:27:21.000ZJohn Stuarthttps://diydrones.com/members/JohnStuart<div><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3690588908?profile=RESIZE_400x&width=400"></div><div><p>A simple comparison of NDVI (using two different LUTs) against DVI.
