The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is becoming increasingly popular and present in various activities around the world, as an important innovation tool to optimize work and research in general. Among the various areas in which UAVs are present, in this article we will highlight their use as a Precision Agriculture tool, with emphasis on their use in the cultivation of sugarcane in Brazil, a crop with the third largest planted area in the country. The objective was to carry out a systematic review of the work already carried out on the use of UAVs in Brazilian crops, seeking to elucidate: where, how much and how this innovation has been used in national crops. To achieve this goal, we use important scientific articles indexing databases (Scopus, Web of Science, Scielo and Google Scholar), where we identify articles published in journals and annals of important events inside and outside the country. With this, it was possible to visualize the scenario of the distribution of researches identified throughout the national territory, noting that there are regions of the country where studies are concentrated more than others. In the end, we conclude that the country has a heterogeneous distribution regarding the use of this technology, which can be explained by legal restrictions imposed in the past or by the absence of works and/or advertising in the research carried out so far. In this sense, the present article contributes to elucidate the current state of research and dimension perspectives for the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
