Fertilizers and Micronutrients

Fertilizer and micronutrient application with agricultural drones is a critical part of field and crop care. Mistakes during fertilizer application can cost farms dearly: plants lose stress tolerance, become more susceptible to diseases and pests, and yield potential remains unrealized.

What agricultural drone application delivers for your farm

Foliar feeding with agricultural drones enables nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and micronutrients to be delivered directly to the leaf surface without delay. This approach is especially effective during periods when the root system can no longer supply plants with sufficient nutrients from the soil.

Unlike ground equipment, an agricultural drone works without contact with the crop, leaves no wheel tracks, and does not damage plants — whereas tractor application can result in 5–15% yield loss. This is particularly important for crops at late development stages, including wheat, corn, and sunflower.

Agricultural drones effectively apply:

  • Herbicides
  • Fungicides
  • Insecticides
  • Desiccants
  • Micronutrients

DJI Agras T100 advantages over ground equipment


  • 3-in-1: spray + spread + lift

    100 L tank, 150 L/100 kg spreader, cargo mode up to 100 kg.

  • No soil compaction

    Tractors destroy soil structure — wheel tracks mean 5–15% yield losses.

  • 9-minute charging

    Ultra-fast battery charging — minimal downtime between flights.

  • Any terrain

    Slopes, waterlogged fields, areas without roads — no problem.

  • Night operations

    Treatment at any time of day — critical growth stages are never missed.

  • Zero CO₂ emissions

    Fully electric. A diesel tractor produces hundreds of kg of CO₂ per season.

FAQ

Answers to common questions about fertilizer and micronutrient application with agricultural drones: effectiveness, timing, product compatibility, and benefits for your farm.

An agricultural drone does not contact the crop and does not create wheel tracks. As a result, plants avoid mechanical damage and the farm prevents additional yield losses.

The greatest effect is observed during critical crop development stages, when plants require rapid nutrient uptake through the leaf surface.

Yes, provided the components are technologically compatible. Before field work begins, our specialists verify tank-mix compatibility and compliance with recommended application rates.

Agricultural drones enable rapid field treatment without downtime due to soil saturation, protect crops from damage, and allow a timely response to crop needs.

We consider the crop development stage, visual condition of the stand, soil analysis results, and foliar diagnostics. Based on this data, a feeding program is selected.
