Drones helping farmers to identify sick crops

Since 2010, the company Quetzal Aerospace, based in the city of Queretaro, in the middle of Mexico, began manufacturing drones. A little more than four years after its birth, the company has expressed its intention to use these platforms to optimize aeronautical techniques for farmers, in order to promote "precision agriculture" in the country. The engineer Jorge Alberto Ortega Sánchez, director of the company, explained that with the support of specialists from the Center for Scientific Research and Higher Education of Ensenada (CICESE) it was detected that drones form Quetzal Aerospace could be implemented for technological tasks applied to agriculture.
