DRONE
"The Next Frontier of Weed Management"
Features:
Autonomous flight operations
Manual flight operation
Terrain following at set elevation
Computer controlled grid applications
UAV's (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) are very specific, very targeted, and very precise. With a UAV, we can treat greater areas with less volume. Most ground sprayers can't negotiate tough terrain such as sloping ground, but our drones can!
Benefits:
Inaccessible terrain capability
No footprint on ground
Precise controlled spray deposition (much more precise than helicopters)
Reduced collateral damage
Reduced applicator exposure
Reduced herbicide use
Reduced drift issues
Cost effective
UAV's offer two other invaluable benefits:
Safety and Efficiency
It allows herbicide to be placed exactly where we want it, without having to treat the whole field, hillside or slope. And it keeps our employees from attempting hazardous terrain with ATV/UTV and/or backpacks.
