Research: Spraying Drones Reduce Operator Exposure By 100x

Bayer (Asia Pacific) conducted a comprehensive study to determine spray drift, crop residue and operator exposure while using spraying drones. In this research, you'll learn how operators can use drones to spray fields while removing the applicator from the actual application site. Also covered is a drift study from spray drones.
