Aerial Application to your Crop
Aero Professional Services cover a large range of aerial applications in the Central QLD region and further. Aerial application is an important industry within the agriculture community.
Having a prescribed chemical applied by an aircraft is an economical way to treat your crop because of many factors such as, covering larger areas in a shorter time frame, better access to paddocks, zero disease transfer, no soil compaction from wheel tracks. That damage can reduce crop yield much more than the cost of an aerial application.
Aerial Prescription Spray Application
Sometimes a crop may require a chemical to be applied at different rates dues to variable soil and weed conditions. APS has the technology and equipment to apply solids and liquids at a variable rates.
Some key benefits of Variable Rate Application:
- Improving overall yield by applying fertilizers to the areas that will response best to the fertilizer
- Reduced use of very expensive pesticides by only applying them where needed
- Reducing variation in crop size, or maturity by applying growth regulators to vigorous areas
This can be a time consuming process and takes some technical expertise. There are now consulting agencies that can assist you with this process. Your agronomist or chemical retailer may also be able to help you with this, and you can always come and see us.
