Drones have found increasingly diverse applications in agriculture, from crop monitoring and surveying to pesticide spraying. In this exclusive interview for Cutting-Edge Perspectives, we engage Jeramy Williams, the CEO and founder of American Drone, a leading drone services provider to businesses and organizations. With over a decade of experience in aerial technology, Jeramy shares invaluable insights into the burgeoning role of drones in agriculture.
Drones are already proving their mettle in a wide array of agricultural tasks, including:
Farmers stand to gain significantly from drone technology, enjoying advantages like:
Besides the many benefits that drones already provide, there are still some advantages for their use in agriculture:
Although drone usage in U.S. agriculture is still in its infancy, it is rapidly expanding. As technology evolves, drones are poised to play an even more significant role in the industry.
Drones have the potential to revolutionize farming by enhancing efficiency, accuracy, and sustainability, boosting yields and profits while minimizing environmental impact.
Surfactants are widely used across the world – in fact, you probably use surfactants every day in soaps, detergents, toothpaste, cosmetics, and countless other applications. Surfactants are just as important in agriculture and turf and understanding how and when to use the right surfactant can make or break a successful application.
Pre-emergence herbicide applications offer a valuable tool to prevent or reduce weed infestations early in the season. While these applications are helpful, it can be a challenge to achieve optimum results. Adjuvant use is increasing and studies continue to prove their effectiveness.
Leaders from Exacto and other companies recently took part in advocacy activities in Washington, DC, engaging in twenty-four meetings with congressional leadership, senators, and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). They addressed a major challenge related to the Endangered Species Act (ESA).
Failed weed control may resemble herbicide resistance, but it’s not always the culprit. Recent cases of HPPD-inhibitor (group 27) herbicide failures have shown that certain application errors are more common culprits than resistance. This research shows ways to overcome these application challenges.
