Drones: exciting times for agriculture

Marcus Bulstrode works with the Coastal Farming Systems team at DAF and has been using drones for a few years to assist growers to understand their farms better.
Drones can help growers become aware of the differences within paddocks and by understanding variability within the paddock, growers are then able to selectively target poorer areas and use herbicides and nutrients to best effect, reducing run-off and costs.
