On July 5, an agricultural technician operated a plant protection drone, or unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), for aerial crop spraying in the fields of Tanchong Village, Yangquan Town, Changning City, Hengyang. It is a critical period for the control of crop pests and diseases at present, particularly those affecting crops such as rice and lotus root. The city authority has promptly organized the towns and townships to use new scientific and technological farming equipment for summer field management. This laid a solid foundation for a bumper harvest throughout the year. (Photo/Zhou Xiuyichun)
