Popis: Drones have many advantages over the helicopters that were used in steeply sloping vineyards before the ban on aerial spraying. They are cheaper, safer, quieter, more precise and smaller, allowing them to fly lower and thus limit aerial drift. The drone also appears to be a promising alternative to ground spraying (the only option currently authorized) in terms of operator safety and exposure.
