Yes. Agricultural drone spraying is legal when performed by FAA-certified operators following federal, state, and local regulations. Licensed drone applicators operate under strict guidelines for safety, application accuracy, and environmental protection.
Drone spraying provides highly accurate, low-altitude application directly over the crop canopy. This improves placement precision, reduces drift, and ensures more uniform coverage compared to ground rigs or aerial planes.
Drone spraying is commonly used on row crops like corn and soybeans, as well as specialty crops, cover crops, and sensitive field areas. It works especially well where traditional equipment struggles with access or timing.
Yes. One major advantage of drone spraying is that it does not require field entry. Applications can be completed in wet, muddy, or soft conditions without causing soil compaction or crop damage.
Drone spraying is ideal if you need precise application, reduced drift, or access to hard-to-reach fields. A consultation helps determine whether full-field application, spot treatment, or variable rate spraying makes the most sense for your operation.
