Drone Spraying (DJI T50)
Precise spraying of gorse, lupin, blackberry, thistles and more — even on steep, wet, or rough terrain.
Seeding & Spreading
Aerial delivery of pasture seed, slug bait, or fertiliser. Ideal for re-seeding, erosion-prone hillsides, or inaccessible areas.
Multispectral Mapping
Crop scans using NDVI and vegetation indexes to highlight stressed or healthy areas and guide input decisions.
Native Planting Prep
Targeted weed control before native planting. Reduces regrowth and improves survival rates.
Forestry & Reserve Work
Spray waterways, bush blocks, fence lines, or wetlands safely with no need for foot access.
Building & Property Inspections
Visual drone inspections for sheds, roofs, infrastructure, and large properties. Reduce risks and save time on tall structures.
Here’s what sets us apart.
