Pulses
Pulses​
Pulse crops such as field beans and peas play a valuable role in UK rotations, but achieving consistent quality and yield can be challenging. Variability in establishment, weed competition, and disease pressure can all impact performance. FarmingByDrone helps you stay ahead of these issues with timely insight and targeted action.​
​Using high-resolution and multispectral imaging, we can assess crop uniformity, identify patchy establishment, and detect early signs of stress or disease. Pulses can be particularly difficult to monitor from ground level, especially where weeds blend into the crop, but aerial data highlights problem areas clearly, allowing you to focus attention where it’s needed most.
Our drone spraying capability then enables precise, low-impact treatment. Whether applying herbicides, fungicides, or foliar nutrients, we target specific zones rather than treating the whole field. This reduces input costs and avoids unnecessary crop damage, particularly important in sensitive broad leaf crops.​
​With no need for tramlines or heavy machinery, drones also minimise soil compaction and crop disturbance, preserving yield potential.
