In the earliest years, everyone knew that DJI’s agricultural drones could directly sow rice seeds. After the rice seedlings emerge, the spreading effect is uniform and the emerging rate of the rice is high. The farmers are very satisfied with the spreading result.
In addition to rice sowing, the DJI drone sowing system is also suitable for sowing clover, cover crops, rye, grass seeds, forest seeds, etc. Now it can successfully sow rapeseed after passing the test
In many rapeseed planting areas, due to the irregular terrain, soil moisture is not suitable for large-scale ground planting machinery. If small seeders are used for direct seeding, there are problems of uneven distribution of rapeseed and uneven emergence rate.
Here we would like to share with you a case study of rapeseed sowing by using DJI Agriculture Drones.
2017 DJI MG1
Spreading parameter test
Due to the small particle size of rapeseed, about 1-2 mm, the flying height should not be too high. Under the premise of ensuring the uniform spread of rapeseed, one of the DJI agricultural drone teams has conducted multiple tests and finally guaranteed that the seeding amount per acre is Under the premise of 2.4-3kg/acre, the best operating parameters have been found.
Operating parameters
Crop Name | Rapeseed | Altitude | 2M |
Speed | 4M/S | Turntable speed | 650 RPM |
Row distance | 5M | Opening Rate | 20% |
Testing
After finding suitable operating parameters, in order to reassure local users, this team selected 10 acres of experimental fields for field tests.
After using the DJI Agriculture drone spreader for 4 days, the emergence of the rape seedlings made the local agricultural growers quite satisfied with the spreading effect of the DJI Agras spreader, and the task of planting more than 5,000 acres of rape was handed over to this team.
Farmers feedback
After filling the seeds and fertilizer, tap the screen of the remote control, and the drone will sow the seeds on the land according to the set route.
It is very intuitive to see that the drone seeding is not restricted by the terrain, and the spreading accuracy is high and the efficiency is high. Everyone praised again and again: Drone sowing small seeds can be so convenient!
Conclusion
The drone can perform precise seeding according to the area of the plot, avoid omission and duplication.
