The paper presents an agricultural-based fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) which is capable of spraying chemicals (pesticide/fertilizer). Aerial pollination, aerial sowing of seeds and similar tasks can be accomplished by effortless swapping of the payload. It makes these agricultural tasks simple, cost-effective and time-efficient. UAV reduces contact with pesticide during spraying and also eliminates the use of manned aircraft. Thus increases the safety of humans by preventing the ill effects of chemicals (pesticides) and fatal accidents of manned aircraft. Paper emphasizes the importance of UAV in the agricultural sector to ensure human safety and to increase the efficiency of farming. It incorporates aircraft design, specifications, performance, flight envelope, flow analysis, structural analysis and its ability to accommodate sufficient payload for the purpose. It also encapsulates the cost breakdown to analyze its affordability and cost-effectiveness.
