there will still be need for full field spraying, fungicides or liquid fert.. but yes, this technology should bring a lot of improvement to weed control

Don’t think so. Fertiliser application will become far more targeted. We will be able to grow multiple crops in the same field instead of monocultures. All these things will mean less disease. Sensors will detect disease outbreak and stop it before it spreads. The options are endless!

full field is what the small drones were tasked at and the spot sprayer aimed at individual weeds

they seem to have thought this through !

they also had this with a 200Kgs payload
