"With the new DJI T100, it brings a huge increase in capacity... we're up to a 100-litre tank, and forward speed is up to 75 kilometres an hour. A key addition is LiDAR technology, which enables terrain following and obstacle avoidance - features he describes as 'kind of a game changer in the drone world.'"
"When we can get up to that 75 kilometres an hour, it really pushes that swath out to upwards of 40 feet. Higher forward speeds increase swath width, allowing operators to cover more acres quickly."
"If we get three inches of rain this morning... you can still spray or do your cover crops in the afternoon and not leave a mark. Demand is growing quickly, driven in part by the flexibility drones offer in challenging field conditions."
"Volley Aerobotics offers a two-day training course designed to help farmers understand how to effectively use drone technology in their operations."
Canadian farmers are preparing for the 2026 season with increased interest in drone technology, particularly the DJI Agras T100.
