Drone technology was used to sprinkle carbonic fertiliser for the first time in Sri Lanka recently in a experimental programme conducted at the Panvila field in Ratgama.
About 1.5 acres were sprinkled with fertiliser using a drone to educate the farmers of this new technology.
The programme was held with the patronage of State Minister Mohan P de Silva.

I still remember the day of August 1947 floods, as it was the last school day at Kingswood College Kandy and the height the water soured. Water rose to the height of the Cross of the Chrurch at Getambe and the water was so high that it engulfed the Getambe Rajaponawarma Temple leaving only a few leaves of the Bo-tree visible.
The Colombo Additional Magistrate has ordered the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) to investigate and submit a report over a complaint about the alleged illegal assets gained by model Piumi Hansamali.
Heritage properties are major tourist attractions world over. Sri Lanka is no exception in this matter. From Colombo, Galle, most of the mountain cities including Nuwara Eliya, Bandarawela, Hatton and Kandy and in the North, hundreds of heritage properties are spread across.
