Latest and best quality DJI Sprayer Drones

Today, photography, cinema or construction professionals are no longer the only ones to use new technologies for the benefit of their activity: a farmer can also become a drone pilot, for a wide variety of uses.

Equipped with a classic civilian drone or a professional drone, he can indeed save considerable time and optimize the yield of his plots thanks to these devices which allow a precise aerial view and the collection of a great deal of data. If you thought you knew everything about drones, you will be surprised to see the importance of their use in agronomy and to discover how they have become decision-making tools in the agricultural sector.
A relevant tool for precision agriculture

Agricultural drones like the DJI Agras T16 sprayer drones (Ready to fly bundle) have the particularity not only of filming to carry out a visual inspection of the land in order to identify weeds or pest damage, but also of being equipped with various sensors that facilitate the analysis of a whole panoply of data : level nitrogen, chlorophyll, biomass, humidity, water stress, etc. In addition, the flight at low altitude and high resolution make it possible to collect aerial views that are more relevant than with a satellite image, as well in viticulture as in arboriculture or for market gardening, horticulture and large cereal crops.

Thanks to all this information and the recommendations on the necessary inputs, farmers can precisely adapt the level of fertilizers or other pesticides to be applied , and the areas concerned. For farmers who regularly use drones, we notice that the quantity of liquids spread to treat crops has significantly decreased, thus facilitating sustainable and reasoned agriculture. The yields are also improved, which allows a relatively fast return on investment, despite an acquisition cost reaching several thousand euros for the most sophisticated drones.

Spreading drones, a new system in development

Although this use is still not very widespread, in particular because of a strict legislative framework which prohibits its use in France , spraying using a drone is beginning to attract more and more farmers across the region. world. Indeed, this technique has several advantages for the agricultural world:

It becomes easier to treat specific areas and optimize the amount of phytosanitary products used by spreading them only where necessary.
The drone can access places that are sometimes not conducive to the passage of agricultural machinery, especially in the event of high humidity, presence of trees, etc.
The settings allow automatic hover and dispersion of fertilizers and herbicides and even spreading while managing the spraying distance.
It is possible to adapt the spray nozzles according to the products to be spread on farmland and the type of crops (rapeseed, wheat, barley or any other cereal plant, vegetables, etc.)
