Brazil is one of the greatest cotton producers in the world, with over 1.6 million hectares of planted areas in the country. While the cotton feathers are basically destined to the textile industry, the cottonseed is used in the production of edible oil, biofuel, mix for rations and fertilizers, and some other uses. It´s a versatile fiber with a high aggregated value.
To fulfill Agriculture´s evergrowing demand, XMobots innovates in the drone market offering a complete solution to its clients, making the crops development possible, in a technological cycle that evolves through generations.
This is COTTON SOLUTION, an exclusive XMobots technology that encompasses the different steps of the crops monitoring, from data collection to the results analysis, assuring a safe decision making, focusing in the profitability.
The identification of planting failures allows XFarming Cotton to analyze the uniformity of crops, evaluate the germ rate of the seeds, and measure the loss estimate through classification.
All crops are bound to be infested by pests and diaseases. In order to make an assertive decision, it’s necessary to monitor the crop and be fast to act! Therefore, we count on high-quality multispectral images generated by XMA camera!Â
The balance between the vegetative and reproductive growth is one of the best strategies to maximize the production by each plant. Growth regulator spraying application at variable rate allows better uniformity of the crop, lower competition for sun rays and a cleaner harvest.
The defoliant spraying application at variable rate reduces the expenses with pesticides. It not only increases the profitability of the crop and the quality of the cotton fiber, but it also does not interfere in the organic opening of the bolls.Â
A cleaner harvest results in a better processing of the cotton fiber!
To detect planting failures, to generate growth regulators and defoliant spraying maps, and others are actions that require a precise and accurate vision of the planted area. To get such results, the first step is to get crop´s images. Although it´s very common to use satellite imaging – 3 meters GSD – to cotton crops, the aerial digital survey using drones allows a significant better detailing (3 to 5 centimeters per pixel).
Much more than a tool that is robust, accurate and guarantees the high productivity in data collection, it´s important that the sensor used in the image capturing reveals outstanding information. To get unique results, XMobots specialists team developed XMA camera, the only imaging sensor in the world which development was based in the spectral signature of cotton leaf. The rich amount of details brought by the camera is one of the greatest differentials in COTTON SOLUTION and a fundamental part for the data analysis, the following step in this process.
Thoughout the development of COTTON SOLUTION, XMobots team mapped thousands of hectares, in different phenological phases of cotton crops growth. This database is key part of AI resources of XFarming, XMobots´ data analysis software.
XFarming Cotton analyzes the main issues of the crops, generating accurate reports that help in the decision making, in an agile, fast and automated way.
XMobots wants its clients to feel secure about flying their drones and generating great results. Therefore, they can count on XMobots´ XConsulting specialists, that offer, after drone operation training, the implementation of the technology to their daily needs in the field.
We fly, process and analyze together. Walking hand in hand, we go farther.

A aplicação de desfolhante à taxa variável reduz os custos com defensivos. Além de aumentar a rentabilidade da lavoura, eleva a qualidade da fibra e não interfere no ritmo de abertura dos capulhos.
O equilÃbrio entre o crescimento vegetativo e reprodutivo é uma das melhores estratégias para maximizar a produção por planta. Aplicações de regulador de crescimento à taxa variável permitem maior uniformidade da lavoura, menor competição por raios solares e colheita mais limpa.
