| Come along and see how drones can be used to minimise farm chemical inputs as well as inform decisions to create regenerative outcomes. This demonstration of cutting-edge drone technology promises to be an event not to be missed.
Learn how drones are used to inform soil health decisions, measure natural capital and identify landscape stress.
Using different types of drones to measure what the human eye cannot see so that remedial actions can be taken.
9.30 am -10.00am Morning tea
10.00 am – 11.00 am Drone technology and software
11.00 am -12.00 pm Drone flight demonstrations
12.00 pm- 12.30 pm Q&A
Presenter
Presenter Luke Weekley of Falcon UAV will demonstrate a range of drones and how that information is analysed to create targeted inputs. Using GPS data to apply biological inputs only where they are needed automatically saves the land manager input costs.
Topics
1. Introduction to drones and applications in precision Ag
2. Introduction to software and hardware for monitoring and interpreting crop stress, heat zones, weed types, weed detection and variable precision spraying via tractor or drone
3. Introduction to soil health and the importance of balancing structure/biology/nutrient
4. Other opportunities in Ag Tech to maximise profit
