Agcopter’s drones create a centimeter level accurate map of weeds in fallow fields. We load that map into growers existing GPS spray controllers, allowing them to spray only the weeds, often saving over 80% in chemical costs.

Herbicide use for weed control can be necessary for growers to maintain healthy crops and high yields. The cost and application of herbicides is a significant input cost for growers. In addition, the repeated heavy use of herbicides can lead to herbicide resistance and chemical residue in the soil. “Spot spraying” is an effective method for reducing chemical use. Spot spraying means applying herbicide only to the weeds, instead of the entire field. Due to the limitations and high cost of the existing equipment options for spot spraying, most farmers do not use the existing technology to spot spray and instead do a complete blanket spray for every application. Agcopter’s drones create a map of the weeds in fallow fields which is then loaded into the grower’s existing GPS spray controller, allowing them to spray only the weeds, often saving them over 80% in chemical costs.
