Drones for Agriculture
Automate crop spraying, monitor growth, and improve efficiency with advanced drone technology.
Farmers managed their fields with only manual labour for centuries until tractors and machinery revolutionised farming practices. Now, agricultural drones represent the latest wave of innovation. They offer a cost-effective, sustainable, and user-friendly solution, delivering critical data that helps farmers and growers monitor, plan, and manage their farms more effectively, saving time and money.
Crop spraying with DJI Agras T25 and T50 drones are easy to deploy and operate; they automate crop spraying and seed spreading by efficiently covering large areas and dispersing liquids with remarkable precision. These drones cause less soil damage than traditional tractors, require no oil, and are more cost-effective due to their speed and accuracy. With lower upfront costs and minimal maintenance, agricultural drones significantly reduce manual labour while optimising farming practices.
For field management, multispectral drones provide real-time insights into crop health. These compact quadcopters capture images across various spectral bands, delivering highly accurate data that measures plant health and productivity by detecting vegetative growth, crop type, and humidity and generating a leaf area index. This information helps track crop health and identify potential issues, such as crop injury or pest infestations, before they're visible to the human eye, enabling more proactive decision-making. Additionally, these drones are incredibly efficient, quickly covering large areas and providing greater precision than traditional methods while remaining non-invasive to crops.
How Drones Benefit the Agricultural Sector
Drones, the most powerful farming tool since tractors
Spray Your Crops with Unrivaled Precesion
Use the DJI Agras to efficiently disperse liquids over vast fields with remarkable precision. Experience reduced water & resource consumption by implementing this advanced method of crop management.
Protect Your Soil & Crops
By using an Agras drone instead of a tractor to spread seeds you will cause less soil damage, require no oil and as a benefit from healthier crops.
Increased Accuracy & Speed
Drones can carry out tasks such as data capture, or seed dispersal with greater accuracy and speed than traditional methods, meaning you can operate more efficiently and with less manual labour.
Make Pre-emptive Instead Of Reactive Decisions
Multispectral drones helps farmers monitor crop health and identify potential issues, such as pest infestations before it's visable to the human eye for early interventions.
Detect Problems from Above
Drones with thermal sensors can identify areas of a field experiencing hydric stress (lack of water), allowing targeted diagnosis of areas receiving too much or too little water.
Herd Management
Monitor your livestock with drones for 24/7 surveillance. Equip your drone with a speaker to herd them, and use features like a pre-recorded dog bark to minimise stress.
