"We’re an ag-tech company in Iowa City, Iowa, made up of tech nerds and farm kids. Our vision is to build a service network that puts autonomy to work in ag, starting with spray drone services. This matters because delivering crop protection and nutrition is hard, increasing in complexity and cost, and vital to producing food. We want to make precision ag services accessible and cost-effective for more farmers, to reach more acres, and more sustainability.
Rantizo sells drones, support, software, insurance and training, and our service platform connects demand for acres to be sprayed to operators.
Rantizo operators provide timely, local, and precision application services nationwide for crops ranging from rice to corn and hops to potatoes."
If you never used 500 gallons in a day then yes, you definitely have an efficiency problem. Otherwise, the discussion is full of generalizations that it doesn't help anyone.
Efficient, no. Profitable, yes. For your average, a plane or helicopter could do it in less time for the same or less money. Drones are able to penetrate the canopy of the crops and provide better coverage. Meaning better yields typically.
