Supporting Precision Agriculture
In agriculture, growers must continually watch ever dollar, while cutting costs and maximizing the land’s economic production. Elements like weather patterns and land movement can present real challenges, especially over hundreds or thousands of acres of land with different ecologies, assets, and environmental obstacles.
FlightPath Drones agriculture drone services help growers apply Precision Agriculture techniques for better crop and livestock management. Our aerial drones provide farming photography and video data, covering large land areas quickly to pinpoint where action is required. Drones deliver real-time feedback on soil, plant, moisture, and topography to maximize yield, avoid waste, and increase the bottom line.
Farming
Aerial drone photography services help farmers stay on top of their land management responsibilities. Drone video and photos are highly effective at scouting land and crop features quickly, leading to smarter resource decisions that cut costs and increase production. With FlightPath Drones agriculture drone services, growers can:
- Increase crop yields by monitoring multiple issues affecting plant health and growth.
- Quickly find and address crop disease, infestation, or poor irrigation not seen in ground-level checks. Analysis tools such as normalized differential vegetation indexing (NDVI) help you zero in, compare, and adjust conditions to maximize yield.
- Leverage topographical, thermal, and spectral mapping to monitor and assess crop health faster with more precision over large land areas.
- Perform soil & field analysis to assess moisture and fertility levels, identifying irrigation and nitrogen management actions needed to reduce waste.
- Plant more efficiently by gathering visual data that maps the terrain and collects information about the topography and soil.
- Manage irrigation with a comprehensive and accurate lay of the land. Aerial photography makes it easy to identify slopes and drainage, and drones with thermal cameras can detect both dry and wet ground, allowing farmers to adjust irrigation as needed.
Livestock
Producers, ranchers, and cattle farmers often use drone aerial photography to create and execute Precision Ranching strategies. The data captured by aerial footage helps maximize the land’s resources and the producer’s efficiency, ensuring a more robust herd, cost-savings, and smarter business decisions based on reliable data. With FlightPath Drones aerial drone photography, producers can:
- Take a comprehensive inventory of resources, locating the best areas for drinking water and creating a highly effective grazing management plan.
- Check for damage after severe weather, saving time and protecting ranch hands from precarious situations.
- Counting or locating missing livestock and related tasks. Use infrared imaging day or night to quickly locate animals.
- Monitor fencing and pen conditions, saving time and the fuel required to monitor by ATV or automobile.
