The distribution of organic farming products with drones represents an interesting solution. Above all, it can reduce production costs, increase productivity, and guarantee a healthy and high-quality product in respect of nature.
Drones in agriculture are used to monitor crops by carrying out proximity surveys and for biological treatments through aerial distribution at low altitudes.
Through targeted biological treatments, it is possible to guarantee the well-being of crops against the uncontrolled proliferation of parasites and diseases capable of compromising whole yields. Furthermore, the rapid inspection of the fields allows understanding the real potential and needs of the crops. The result is a maximization of the yield and a better quality of the final product with a lower environmental impact deriving from water, fertilizers, and pesticides.
Aermatica3D solutions are now widely used to effectively distribute capsules, granules, powders, and liquids, as well as beneficial insects, thus allowing any type of biological treatment to be carried out in any kind of cultivated field.
