UAVs are changing the game in agriculture!

 
The University of Missouri's Weed Sciences department, led by Dr. Kevin Bradley, is leading the charge.
They are focusing on coverage, nozzle technology, and application parameters.
UAVs use specialized atomization nozzles, different from traditional ones.
Research aims to optimize droplet size for effective herbicide application while software updates are enhancing nozzle performance and droplet size.
Pre-residual herbicide applications using UAVs are also being studied. Initial trials are determining if UAVs can provide sufficient volume and coverage.
Mapping fields for weed infestations and targeted spraying is another promising approach, and this method could be beneficial for smaller acreage crops and pastures.
Overall, UAV herbicide application holds great promise for the future of agriculture.
Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting research!
