Surveying & Spraying with XAG-P30 commercial drones

There are many advantages of applying products from the XAG P30 which included reduced compaction and reduced bio-security issues, as well as the potential for operation in sensitive areas.
The XAG P30 applicator is designed to achieve uniform applications of ultralow-volume pesticides. Coverage is achieved on both sides of the leaves and the central part of crops and canopies, where the pests and disease conceal themselves. The variability of hover height and forward speed allows for precise deposition of products.
WSB’s precision ag consultant, Corrie Eichner, is a strong advocate for the XAG30 application and said "Using an ultra-coarse droplet at 2.5 metre release height there was no drift beyond swath under drone at a 26-kilometre wind speed.”
A special atomisation spraying mechanism, features droplets adjustable while flying from 60 to 680 microns and variable downdraft.
XAG P30 is equipped to detect surface inversion layers, the drone is capturing temperature data, only correct conditions will permit drone to spray.
Corrie said along with weed and fungicide spraying, the drones could be used for detection of crop ripeness, disease and insect pressure, another opportunity for the XAG P30 is utilisation in frost management, with approval for night operation and capable of 20 mt/sec downforce at travel speeds of 1-4mt/sec.
The XAG P30 drone utilises its own 2cm RTK GPS solution and is capable of 5ha/hr on designated flight path, it is very quiet in comparison to alternatives,
Capacity Ha/hr can increase dramatically when flying in swarm formation, one operator / controller can manage from 1- 5 drones, potentially achieving 25Ha/hr.
The same model is also capable of granular and seed applications. Trials have been conducted locally with Brassica, Millet and Canola with good results.
Corrie said XAG drones also offered geo-spatial services, including mapping, contour water flow simulation and plant health monitoring through multi and hyper-spectral imagery.
"Importantly the survey allows us to come up with the intelligence or machine learning that is required for the application specific to the job”, Corrie said.
