Day-to-Day Responsibilities
Check weather, wind, battery levels and airspace rules before each mission, and plan flight routes over the field.
Calibrate the spray system and load the correct dose of pesticide, fungicide or fertiliser for the crop and stage.
Fly the drone at the set height and speed so spray or inputs are spread evenly across the field.
Run mapping missions and collect aerial images or sensor data to check crop health, pests and field boundaries.
Maintain the drone by cleaning nozzles, checking propellers and batteries, and updating software.
Follow DGCA rules and safety protocols, including keeping people, animals and water sources clear of spray.
Record each job, including area covered and chemicals used, and report results to the farmer or client.
