Precision Agriculture with Drones: From Mapping to Micro-Spraying

Drones are transforming precision agriculture by shrinking the time between scouting and action. With high-resolution sensors and repeatable autonomous flight paths, growers can capture NDVI and thermal imagery that highlights stress, moisture variance, and nutrient gaps well before they are visible from ground level. Those insights power variable-rate applications and micro-spraying that reduce waste and target inputs exactly where they are needed. Proper pilot training, compliance with local regulations, and data workflows that integrate with farm management software are essential to unlock the full return on investment.
