Sources & confidence

Maine estimate · low confidence · data as of 2026 — No ME extension survey breaks out drone application rates, but UMaine documents an established aerial-applicator market for wild blueberries and potatoes (fixed-wing/helicopter). Derived from the Northeast (PA/NY) analog ($15–25/ac) scaled ~1.32x Iowa — the LOWEST in New England — because Aroostook potato ground and the blueberry barrens offer more contiguous, accessible acreage and a real resident aerial-applicator base, partly pulling rates toward the Iowa end; offset upward by long travel distances within a large rural state. Specialty band (blueberry/orchard/vineyard) stays elevated for multi-pass high-value work. Spread widened ~15% for derivation uncertainty.
