Mitigating Avian Crop Damage Through Innovative Technological Solutions: A Comprehensive Study

Abstract

Avian crop damage poses a significant challenge to global agricultural production, leading to substantial economic losses and food security concerns. This paper presents a comprehensive study of the impact of avian species on crops, analysing relevant technical papers and proposing innovative technological solutions to mitigate the damage. The study highlights the severity of crop damage caused by birds, focusing on major crops and affected regions. The use of drones and other advanced technologies is explored as potential strategies for crop protection. Through a systematic analysis of existing literature and statistical data, this research aims to provide valuable insights for policymakers, farmers, and researchers working towards sustainable agricultural practices. Keywords: Avian pests, bird damage, crop protection, technological solutions, drones, acoustic devices, visual deterrents, data-driven approaches, case studies, environmental considerations, sustainable agriculture, Crop insurance.
