Agriculture
Equipped for efficient spreading and precision spraying.
Through its advanced technology the drone is designed and calibrated to distribute product with high precision ensuring crops and land receive the optimum quantity, increasing yields, optimising processes and reducing environmental footprint.
Drones are becoming an invaluable tool to modern farming.
​
​Harnessing the interchangeable 50L spray tank and 80L granule hopper the XAG drone autonomously covers various applications:
-
Liquid and granular fertiliser
-
Cover crop spreading
-
Pod sealer on OSR
-
Bio-stimulants
-
Lime pellets & more​
Key Benefits
No Compaction
Healthy soil is key to a successful crop.
Compared to ground machinery, by applying fertiliser or seed by aerial operation soil compaction is reduced to nil.
​No compaction leads to a healthier crop, higher yield and greater natural nitrogen uptake. In turn reducing the amount of synthetic nitrogen needed on the crop making it a cost effective incentive whilst reducing environmental impact.
Retain Nutrients
Take advantage of cover crop incentive programmes. Cover crop is a fantastic way to retain nutrients within the soil, stop soil erosion and nitrates entering water courses, whilst also keeping pests and diseases at bay.
The drone can quickly and accurately apply seed into a standing crop successfully without any damage.
Ground Restrictions
With climate change bearing more unpredictable weather and a growing population, farmers are faced with the huge challenge of keeping the nation fed whilst battling the elements.
Accessing wet and difficult ground is becoming increasingly hard for farmers year on year.
The drone has the ability to work across difficult or wet terrain allowing you to take advantage of areas that would normally be inaccessible to heavy machinery due to ground conditions. ​
Accuracy
The drone utilises GPS technology mapping the field and its boundaries enabling precise navigation and positioning for accurate operation.​
