1 Unmanned Aerial Systems for Ozarks Agriculture UAS, UAV, drone Next High Tech Tool for Agriculture and Beyond by Bob Schultheis Natural Resource Engineering Specialist Photo credit: hawk/ for Webster County Cattle Producers Inc. Marshfield, MO February 11, Photo credit: drones the next big thing in ag/ Photo credit: surveying using aerial robots / Agricultural Challenges FAO predicts need to feed 9.6 billion people on planet by 2050 Food production must increase by 70% by 2050, in spite of: Limited availability of arable lands Increasing need for fresh water Agriculture consumes 70% of the world s fresh water supply Impact of climate change affecting seasonal events in the life cycle of plant and animals. Future of agriculture = smart farming Economic Impact of UAS Precision agriculture and public safety are the most promising commercial and civil markets = 90% of the known potential markets for UAS Agriculture in U.S. anticipated to provide: $65 billion of $82 billion UAS business from ,700+ new jobs (at least 34,000 jobs over $40K/year) $13.6 billion in first 3 years $1.56 billion in Missouri with 1,970+ jobs over 10 years Every year that integration is delayed, the U.S. loses over $10 billion in potential economic benefit = $27 million loss per day Source: Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) Issues Who can and cannot fly UAS? Privacy and safety concerns What can I do with UAS? Will the regulations hinder growth of UAS use? Can I Fly an UAV? Yes, No, Maybe >400 Feet = Navigable Airspace <400 Feet = Non Navigable Airspace Property Rights? Photo credit:
2 The National Airspace Classes MSL = Mean Sea Level AGL = Above Ground Level Different Types of UAS Operations Model aircraft (hobby or recreation only) Civil operations (non governmental) Public operations (governmental) Class G (uncontrolled) airspace is mostly used for a small layer of airspace near the ground, but there are larger areas of Class G airspace in remote regions. 7 Photo credit: 8 Privacy Concerns Laws already control taking picture and videos of people, especially in areas where they have reasonable expectation of privacy People and what they are doing are clearly visible Sight crosses your property boundaries New laws are likely The view from UAS Safety Concerns Most people have little aviation experience They become pilots as soon as they start to fly the devices Must accept all the responsibilities for safety that a pilot of a regular manned aircraft does How Does a UAS Work? More than a flying device UAS gives you a unique perspective that is easy, fast, and not hindered by roads, fences, crops, and other barriers to movement Navigate by GPS, auto return to home hover Sensor: normal digital videos and photos Controllable with joysticks, vision goggles or smartphone 11 2

(equivalent to about 10 gallons of gasoline, which could be used for extending endurance) cc two cycle engine from a Yamaha weed whacker. A tank of mixed gas keeps the chopper flying for an hour. The G15 weighs 15 lbs. and is capable of carrying 15 lbs. The carbon fiber rotors have a 71 inch span. G15 AutoCopter $50,000 to $75, The ebee has a flight time of up to 45 minutes allowing to cover areas of up to 2400 acres in a single flight.

9 Further Interpretations June 25, 2014 Allowed Not Allowed UAV Registration as of Dec. 21, 2015 Applies to: Small unmanned aircraft systems Hobby and recreational use Commercial use Public aircraft statutes Penalties: Operating an unregistered drone after Feb. 19, 2016 could result in a civil penalty of $27,500 Criminal penalties could reach up to $250,000 in fines or three years imprisonment Model Aircraft Safety Guidelines Fly below 400 feet & remain clear of surrounding obstacles Keep aircraft within visual line of sight at all times Remain well clear of and do not interfere with manned aircraft operations Don't fly within 5 miles of an airport unless you contact the airport and control tower before flying Don't fly near people or stadiums Don't fly an aircraft that weighs more than 55 lbs. Don't be careless or reckless with your unmanned aircraft you could be fined for endangering people or other aircraft UAS for Civil Operations FAA currently authorizes the use of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) for commercial or business purposes on a case by case basis You may not fly your UAS for commercial purpose without the express permission from the FAA You will need: 1. FAA Section 333 grant of exemption, 2. Certificate of Waiver or Authorization (COA), 3. An aircraft registered with the FAA, and 4. A pilot with an FAA airman certificate Registration small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (suas) (operated outdoors) Registration Compliance Dates small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (suas)

11 Final Thoughts There is information in your pastures and fields that remote sensing can help you extract and use Other forms of remote sensing (airplane, satellite) are expensive and frustrating UAS puts the control in your hands either directly or through your adviser Final Thoughts Will agricultural producers want to learn this technology themselves, or pay for the services of a company that can do it for them? Just collecting the images and data won t pay the bills. The data will need to be analyzed and the results put into practice to make the farm or ranch more productive and efficient. Questions??
