The use of drones has already significantly changed the agricultural sector and will increase over the next few years. Even if drone use is growing more beneficial for small farmers, there is still a long way to go before they are a standard piece of farming equipment, especially in developing countries such as the Caribbean. Drones can be valuable to farmers in a variety of ways and as such, it is crucial to understand their capabilities and limitations. This video provides a brief description of the benefits of data-driven agriculture, the application of drones in agriculture, drone data collection and analysis, and the generation of actionable maps for farmers. Ms. Rose Funja, Executive Director of Aginfo, discusses the use of drone technology in contributing to building a sustainable and climate-resilient agriculture sector. Ms. Funja explains the benefits of data-driven agriculture, providing access to data for farmers including drones, sensors, and software for data analysis as well as the process for precision agriculture missions and analysing data collected and generating actionable maps for farmers.

Bees are more than just producers of honey; they are critical to the pollination of many fruits and vegetables and without them, our biodiversity is at risk. Beekeeping (or apiculture) though important, remains an underdeveloped industry in the Caribbean Region where the majority of beekeepers produce honey as a hobby or part-time job rather than a full-time business venture. The industry faces several challenges including changing climate. This video provides a brief description of the strategy of the Belize Honey Industry for increasing honey production, technologies and strategies implemented to adapt to climatic changes, and value-added honey and bee products. Mr. Miguel Huertas, Coordinator for Honey and Beekeeping at the Ministry of Agriculture in Belize, shares his experiences with various technologies and strategies being implemented in Belize to adapt to climate change. Mr. Huertas discusses the strategy of the Belize honey industry to increase production including the development of value-added honey and bee products for the generation of additional income.
