[QUOTE="Boysground, post: 7572707, member: 610"] I tend to embrace as much technology as i can but I fail to see what improvement a drone could do, especially as we currently dont have any chemicals that can be used for flea beetle the ones that work are not available to us and there is resistance to the rest. Even if there were the beetles migrate, they move over the field so any chemical control has to be on the plant waiting for the insect to eat it. We can all do this cheaply with current technology, I am quite prepared to be told a done system can save the crop but in a field scale situation I find it difficult to see anything being both effective and affordable.
