Autonomous drone sprayer - Future of Farming | John Deere

[@mustlovedogs272]

A complete set up with the DJI Agra T-60 costs about $60,000 for a complete set up. JD, of course, has come up with a system that would cost probably $300,000.

Looks very interesting, would like to see more of this!

When is that going to be available in the U.S. ?

Hola me gustaría saber el modelo del drone y en que países ya se ah implementado este sistema, saludos de chile.

Main problem I see...dicamba doesn't have an aerial application label in the US

Custo deste droner?

[@tofuComputer]

Commercial UAS ag pilot here. 30 minutes... on a battery? With full tanks? Are you using alien technology? Because I don't know of any battery-powered spray drone that can stay aloft for that long right now. Hybrid engine, maybe.

[@jdavantel]

30 minutes i think its about 1 battery can do , but spraying with 10.6L the drone needs to come back 3 or 4 times to reload a tank

[@chriscafaro8867]

@@jdavantel Heh. It does it.

Nothing "Costs" as much as a Deere. It seems nice though :) (Lafayette, LA)

I love technology! l've even just created a youtube channel to follow my passion.

Spray drones need to be autonomous. Who wants to spend all day filling small tanks and changing batteries?

[@bayhorse6152]

I find it very disingenuous of Deere to now claim the benefits of arial application after spending years denying any benefit over their crop flattening ground pounders. It’s all good though... they are still heavily defending your “right to replace “ any malfunctioning system at their dealers shop. That’ll be awesome for farmers as the tech gets more complicated and expensive.
