Abstract(s)

Birds continue to be one of the main factors of loss by producers in the region of Beira Interior. Fruits such as peaches and cherries continue to be damaged and their trees destroyed due to bird crop attacks. There are several methods to disperse birds, but all have low effects in the long-term as they demonstrate low variability and high maintenance. Drones are systems that are capable of dispersing birds due to their high mobility. Together with the use of audiovisual technologies, increase the effectiveness of the bird dispersion. However, to get the most out of each flight it is required to understand birds’ movements. Thus, a monitoring system is required. In this article, a technological solution is proposed that uses drones and aggregates the monitoring and dispersion systems so maximum effectiveness in bird dispersal is achieved.
