Services provided by hybrid agricultural drones
Desiccation
- absence of losses due to mechanical damage to the crop by trailed or self-propelled sprayer;
- savings of the product up to 30-40% due to ultra-low volume application and reduction of water use upto 90% (as a result, savings on transportation to the field);
- minimisation of product depletion due to powerful turbulent air flow from the blades increasing the penetrating effect into the lower tiers of the culture and providing processing on both sides of the leaf, the inability to “go” into tall crops;
- expansion of the weather “window”, the ability to work on wet soil, at night, on any terrain and shape of the field;
- no overlap, quality and accuracy of work with RTK-positioning;
- reduction of the pesticide load on the environment
Introduction of PPP
Plant protection products (PPP) or pesticides are natural or synthetic chemicals that help protect crops from large losses due to pest and disease damage, while increases yields per hectare.
Agricultural drones cope with this task as efficiently as possible because the vertical air flow sprays the leaves on both sides. thus, we increase the effectiveness of, for example, an insecticide that hits the target of pests, which are usually on the underside of the leaf culture. The multicopter with high positioning accuracy allows you to work with concentrates and prevents “burning” of plants due to overlap between passages.
Treatment of perennial plants
With the help of drones, we can adjust the height of the spray, and therefore perform work on spraying gardens, vineyards, berries, orchards or high crops with high precision, reducing worker contact with harmful substances that may be contained in protective equipment.
High accuracy of agricultural drone’s positioning in space and the action of vertical air flow, significantly reduces the impact of wind on the demolition of the product, as well as allows the maximum application of the product to the useful area of deciduous plants.
Liquid complex fertilisers
Liquid complex fertilizers (LCF) are fertilisers that are in the form of an aqueous solution and contain two or more nutrients. Usually LCFs belong to the phosphate group of fertilizers.
The most common are concentrated liquid complex fertilizers (LCD) containing Nitrogen (N) and Phosphates (P) in a ratio of 1:3. Divided into basic and suspended fertilizers (LCF and SLCF), where the main difference between them is the method of production.
Ultra-small spraying
Ultra-small spraying is a method of spraying that helps save on water, protective equipment, fuels, labor.
This method is more effective because of the size of the drops (100-200 microns) that cover the plants on both sides of the leaf. This application minimises losses in the form of large drops, which in the traditional way roll from the plant to the ground, which in turn increases the effectiveness of the drug and reduces the deposition of harmful substances on the ground.
