Benefits of Spray Drones in Agriculture
1
Precision Application
Drones can accurately apply pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers, reducing human exposure to harmful chemicals and minimizing wastage.
2
Access to Challenging Terrains
Drones allow for spraying crops when fields are too wet after rains, can spray small, odd-shaped fields better than airplanes and ground sprayers, and handle hilly terrain and terraces very well.
3
Environmental Sustainability
Drones can significantly reduce pesticide use, translating to substantial financial savings for farmers and less environmental impact.
4
Targeted Spot Spraying
Drones equipped with advanced imaging and GPS technology can identify problem areas and apply herbicides or fertilizers only where needed, minimizing overuse and saving resources.
5
Lower Chemical Usage
Drones allow for ultra-low volume (ULV) spraying, which uses smaller quantities of pesticides or herbicides while maintaining effectiveness, reducing environmental impact and costs.
6
Precision Mapping Integration
Combined with mapping software, drones can create precise field maps to guide tailored treatment plans, enhancing overall efficiency.

Drone Services- FAQ Section
How accurate are your drone spraying applications?
Our DJI Agras drones deliver extremely precise application with GPS-guided spray paths and controlled droplet size. This ensures uniform coverage while minimizing drift and chemical waste.
Can drone spraying replace a traditional ground sprayer?
In many cases, yes. Drones offer better access, reduced soil disturbance, and more consistent coverage—especially in timber, pastures, uneven ground, or sensitive areas where large equipment is not practical.
What is the typical cost for drone spraying?
Pricing depends on acreage, herbicide type, vegetation density, and terrain. Drone spraying is often more cost-effective than ground rigs due to reduced labor, faster job times, and minimal equipment damage. Quotes are always free.
How far do you travel for drone work?
We routinely serve clients across Alabama and Georgia, including Auburn, Opelika, Montgomery, Pike Road, Phenix City, Tuskegee, and surrounding counties. Long-distance projects are accepted for larger acreages or specialty services.
Do drones work well in forestry applications?
Yes. Drones excel in forestry for release spraying, site prep, and hardwood brush control. They can reach areas that skidder sprayers and tractors can’t access—without rutting or disturbing soil.
How do I schedule a drone service?
Simply call (334) 707-2531 or email contact@hpsland.com. We offer quick site assessments, pricing, and scheduling based on acreage and project goals.
Do you offer mapping and surveying?
Yes. We provide orthomosaic mapping, NDVI plant-health imaging, and detailed land-analysis tools for farmers, foresters, developers, and landowners.
Are you licensed to apply herbicides by drone?
Yes. Harris Precision Solutions is a fully licensed FAA Part 137 aerial applicator, and we follow all state and federal herbicide regulations. Safety and compliance are top priorities.
What types of vegetation can drones treat?
We treat forestry competition, pasture weeds, invasive species (like kudzu and privet), briars, brush, and site-prep vegetation. Drones are ideal for areas too steep, wet, or thick for ground rigs.
Aerial Mapping
Aerial drone mapping, specifically orthomosaic mapping, is a process that uses drones equipped with high-resolution cameras and GPS technology to capture multiple overlapping images of a landscape. These images are then stitched together using specialized software to create a highly detailed, georeferenced map. Unlike standard photos, orthomosaic maps are corrected for distortion and perspective, providing accurate measurements of land, vegetation, and infrastructure. This technology is widely used in industries such as farming, forestry, and land management to improve decision-making and resource efficiency.
Farming: Precision Agriculture for Higher Yields
n farming, orthomosaic mapping allows farmers to monitor crop health by identifying areas of stress or disease. For instance, a farmer might use drone mapping to track irrigation issues or nutrient deficiencies across large fields. The resulting map highlights underperforming areas, allowing for more targeted treatment with fertilizers or water, optimizing yield and reducing waste. This approach leads to cost savings and better use of resources.
Forestry: Tracking Tree Health & Managing Wildfire Risk
Forestry professionals use orthomosaic mapping to assess forest health and monitor the spread of pests or diseases. By analyzing a map, forest managers can detect early signs of disease outbreaks or invasive species, enabling timely intervention to prevent widespread damage. For example, a forestry team might identify areas affected by bark beetles, allowing them to remove infected trees before the issue spreads, ultimately preserving the forest's health and resources.
Land Management: Planning & Development with Precision
Orthomosaic mapping plays a key role in land management by providing detailed insights into topography and drainage patterns. For example, developers can use drone mapping to identify low-lying flood-prone areas on a construction site, helping them adjust drainage plans to prevent water damage. Additionally, land managers can monitor erosion-prone areas, using the data to implement better erosion control methods, ensuring the sustainability of the land for future use.
Orthomosaic mapping offers valuable insights for farmers, foresters, and land managers to enhance decision-making, save costs, and safeguard resources.
