摘要： Aerial seeding based on the unmanned agricultural aerial system (UAAS) improves the seeding efficiency of oilseed rape (OSR) seeds, and solves the problem of OSR planting in mountainous areas where it is inconvenient to use ground seeding machines. Therefore, the UAAS has been applied in aerial seeding to a certain degree in China. The effective broadcast seeding width (EBSW), broadcast seeding density (BSD) and broadcast seeding uniformity (BSU) are the important indexes that affect the aerial seeding efficiency and quality of OSR seeds. In order to investigate the effects of flight speed (FS) and flight height (FH) on EBSW, BSD and BSU, and to achieve the optimized parameter combinations of UAAS T30 on aerial seeding application, three levels of FS (4.0 m/s, 5.0 m/s and 6.0 m/s) and three levels of FH (2.0 m, 3.0 m and 4.0 m) experiments were carried out in the field with 6.0 kg seeds per ha. The results demonstrated that the EBSW was not constant as the FS and FH changed. In general, the EBSW showed a change trend of first increasing and then decreasing as the FH increased under the same FS, and showed a trend of decreasing as FS increased under the same FH. The EBSWs were over 3.0 m in the nine treatments, in which the maximum was 5.44 m (T1, 4.0 m/s, 2.0 m) while the minimum was 3.2 m (T9, 6.0 m/s, 4.0 m). The BSD showed a negative change correlation as the FS changed under the same FH, and the BSD decreased as the FH increased under 4.0 m/s FS, while it first increased and then decreased under the FS of 5.0 m/s and 6.0 m/s. The maximum BSD value was 140.12 seeds/m(2) (T1, 4.0 m/s, 2.0 m), while the minimum was 40.17 seeds/m(2) (T9, 6.0 m/s, 4.0 m). There was no obvious change in the trend of the BSU evaluated by the coefficients of variation (CV): the minimum CV was 13.01% (T6, 6.0 m/s, 3.0 m) and the maximum was 64.48% (T3, 6.0 m/s, 2.0 m). The statistical analyses showed that the FH had significant impacts on the EBSWs (0.01 < p-value < 0.05), the FS and the interaction between FH and FS both had extremely significant impacts on EBSWs (p-value < 0.01). The FH had extremely significant impacts on BSD (p-value < 0.01), the FS had no impacts on BSD (p-value > 0.05), and the interaction between FH and FS had significant impacts on BSD (0.01 < p-value < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the broadcast sowing uniformity (BSU) among the treatments. Taking the EBSW, BSD and BSU into consideration, the parameter combination of T5 (T9, 5.0 m/s, 3.0 m) was selected for aerial seeding. The OSR seed germination rate was over 36 plants/m(2) (33 days) on average, which satisfied the requirements of OSR planting agronomy. This study provided some technical support for UAAS application in aerial seeding.
