In an interview with ANBA, Ascenergy managing partner Jean Carlos Guidin said the drone allows the product application across smaller crops, optimizes the volume of the product applied, and provides more control for the application.“It doesn't affect neighboring areas that can be environmental protection areas, wastes 90% less water than planes and don't cause fossil fuel pollution, as they are fully electric,” said Guidin.
Brazil's largest drones sprays up to 240 hectares a day. It has eight batteries, and each of his flights uses two spark plugs and lasts for eight to ten minutes. This is the time needed to recharge other batteries and keep using the drone.
