Now is not the time to become complacent especially concerning growing your market share. For many, the first reaction is to cut, cut, cut and advertising is one of the first things to go. However, experts caution that companies who slash advertising during a downturn, leave empty space in consumers’ minds for aggressive marketers to make strong inroads and gain market share. Today’s economy provides an unusual opportunity to differentiate your business and stand out from the crowd.

HOME MAGAZINE I AUGUST 30 - September 5, 2016

Drones have endless potential on farms

While drones are just getting off the ground on North American farms, their potential is endless. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can improve efficiency, and there is little doubt the technology will play an ever increasing role in the making of farm management decisions. Notably, drones are being used to monitor crop health. Instead of spending hours scouting fields, drones with infrared cameras and sensors now provide farmers with data on insects, plant diseases and moisture levels. With this kind of

information, growers can more accurately calibrate the need for irrigation, fertilizer and pesticides. When hail destroys cornfields, a UAV can survey and accurately assess the damage. Drones are also good for the environment; the result for both commercial and organic farmers is increased yields and reduced labour, energy and other input costs. Drones are also being used for livestock surveillance. They can check temperatures, apply insecticides and herd and locate lost animals. With more and more companies entering the rapidly evolving drone industry,

other functions will be developed. The Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International predicts that in the future agricultural drones will account for upwards of 80 per cent of the commercial market. UAVs are like any other new agricultural technology. Experts advise producers to do their homework before buying a drone. They suggest that farmers prioritize their needs and investigate federal aviation regulations and registration requirements. They should also get informed about additional hardware and software requirements, training programs and the UAVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s construction components.

Apps have become essential tools on the farm. They provide time-saving information and data that help farmers in a number of ways. Apps designed for the agricultural industry cover markets, prices, crops, livestock, machinery, technology and news. Others allow farmers to correctly calculate feed rations, milk data, harvests, tank mixes and a long list of other vital activities.

This free app organizes and stores farm data on acreage, seeding, spraying, harvesting, storage inventories, deliveries, machinery maintenance and more. The information that keeps farmers “organized, efficient and productive” is as close as their smartphone.
