A custom applicator who uses a drone predicts the aerial technology will be more common on farms in five years.
Michael Maguire is a Wisconsin contractor for Iowa City, Iowa based Rantizo, and does custom seeding and spraying for farm fields. He says, “Drones, I think, are going to be more of a mainstay. I think a lot more farmers are going to have that in their shed as a tool.”
Maguire tells Brownfield he expects growth in the use of drone technology, both for farmer applicators with an FAA certification and for contractors like him.
