A new dynamic duo has been announced to further expand the use of drones in aerial application as preferred vendors. Agri Spray Drones, a leading provider of agricultural spray drone systems, training, and support, is working with WinField United to collaborate and promote their complementary technologies.
The National Agricultural Aviation Association estimates about 1% of all aerially applied acres are done with an uncrewed aircraft.
While Agri Spray Drones focuses on training, technology, and service support, WinField United is promoting the use of its crop input products and adjuvants to expand drone application through its network of retailers, agronomists, service providers, and end users.
“This collaboration helps accelerate how drone application integrates with proven crop input technologies,” said Agri Spray Drones founder and CEO Taylor Moreland in a news release. “Working with WinField United gives our network access to trusted agronomic resources and research-based product knowledge that elevates drone application as a dependable and scalable solution for growers.”
Six core facets of the partnership include:
• Coordinated presence at key agriculture industry events
• Joint training opportunities for drone operators, distributors, and agronomists
• Field demonstrations, Answer Plot activities, and comparative trials
• Co-developed marketing and educational materials
• Shared data insights and best practices from research and performance testing
• Increased visibility for both companies across each other’s networks
“WinField United is committed to advancing application technology that helps drive efficiency, consistency, and agronomic performance,” said Joe Vaillancourt, adjuvants marketing manager at WinField United, in the news release. “Collaborating with Agri Spray Drones allows us to better understand how our adjuvant technologies perform under drone application and share those insights with the industry.”
