Drone Spraying in California — 5 Operators

Drone spraying applies fungicides, herbicides, and pesticides with precision and minimal drift — ideal for tall canopies, wet fields, and point rows ground rigs can't reach. Spray-drone operators cover acres fast with no soil compaction or wheel-track loss, and can treat fields too muddy or too steep for a ground sprayer.
