The use of / spraying and spreading of a Pesticide is subject to additional legislation and not permitted, unless an Aerial Permit is obtained from the HSE.
This technology enables farmers to target specific areas of their fields with precision, reducing waste and increasing efficiency.
Drone crop spraying is a relatively new innovation in UK but it has been used globally for many years in agriculture, but it is now rapidly gaining popularity in the UK due to its potential to save time, reduce labor costs, and improve crop yields.
Drones can be programmed for variable rate application, adjusting the amount of spray based on specific field conditions. This precision ensures that each area receives the appropriate amount of treatment, reducing waste and potential environmental impact.
Precision Agriculture
-
Targeted Application: Drones can target specific areas within a field with high precision, allowing for accurate application of chemicals only where needed. This reduces waste and increases effectiveness.
-
Reduced Drift: Advanced sensors and GPS technology help minimize chemical drift, ensuring that chemicals are applied only to intended areas and reducing the risk of damage to nearby crops or the environment.

Scalability
-
Adaptable for Different Crops: Drones can be used for a wide range of crops, including cereals, fruits, vegetables, and specialty crops, making them versatile tools in agriculture.
-
Scalable Operations: The technology can be scaled to suit small family farms or large commercial operations, allowing for flexibility in deployment.
Cost-Effectiveness
-
Reduced Input Costs: Efficient application leads to lower input costs by reducing the amount of chemicals needed and minimizing waste.
-
Lower Maintenance: Drones have fewer mechanical parts than traditional spraying equipment, leading to lower maintenance costs over time.
