Hurricanes begin when the weather conditions are just right for a cluster of thunderstorms to form
over a tropical ocean. If such a cluster remains long enough, it organizes into a tropical depression,
with winds of up to 42 miles per hour. If a tropical depression increases to winds of 43 to 74 miles
per hour, it is a tropical storm. A tropical storm is given a name and watched closely, by satellite,
to see if it gets worse and begins to have the telltale circular shape of a hurricane. If the air
pressure continues to drop, the wind rises to above 75 miles per hour, and a true hurricane is
born.

farmer the differences between healthy and unhealthy plants, a difference not always clearly
visible to the naked eye. Thus, these views can assist in assessing crop growth and production.
Additionally, the drone can survey the crops for the farmer periodically to their liking. Weekly,
daily, or even hourly, pictures can show the changes in the crops over time, thus showing possible
“trouble spots”. Having identified these trouble spots, the farmer can attempt to improve crop
management and production.
As drones entered use in agriculture, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) encouraged
farmers to use this new technology to monitor their fields. However, with the unexpected boom of
agricultural drones, the FAA quickly retracted such encouragement, pending new rules and
regulations. With incidents such as drones crashing into crop dusters, it was vital for the FAA and
the AFBF (American Farm Bureau Federation) to agree on regulations that would allow the
beneficial use of such drones in a safe and efficient manner. Although the American Farm Bureau
Federation would like small adjustments to some of the restrictions that have been implemented,
they are happy that the agricultural industry can actually use this new machinery without the
worry of facing any legal issues.
