Flying in the future of agriculture
Trucks, combines, tractors and trailers are key tools farmers need for day to day operations. But drones are rapidly taking their place alongside these vehicles as critical time and money saving machines.
As technology has advanced, price points have dropped and practical applications for the devices has expanded. The most promising area adopting the many new uses for drones includes those involved in agriculture.
Specializing in this technology is Markus Weber, a co-founder of LandView Drones, a company built around helping introduce farmers to the devices.
“Farmers are creative. Farmers find a use for these things, but there is some learning needed to use them effectively and safely,” Weber said, who hosts seminars across the country for this very reason.
