Outcome: Long-Term Outcome
Taylor County ranks 35th in the state for grain production. Due to previous successful fungicide trials with drones in Adair, Green and Taylor Counties, two local producers have purchased drones to spray fungicides on their corn crops. Drones have proved to be as effective as a helicopter for fungicide applications. Due to lack of helicopter availability and poor timing has stimulated the purchase of farmer owned drones. By owning drones, producers are better able to time their applications for optimal fungicide effectiveness. Drones will be spraying approximately 40% of our 13,500 acres of corn.
