Drones through the winter crop season
Timing varies by district and year. This is a general guide.

| Period | Where a drone can help |
|---|---|
| Summer fallow | Spot spraying weeds from maps |
| Sowing | Spreading on wet or awkward patches |
| Winter | Urea top up and herbicide on waterlogged ground |
| Spring | Fungicide and insecticide when rigs can’t travel |
| Pre harvest | Only where labels permit aerial application |
