Benefits of Aerial Application

Aerial Application 
Dollars and Sense

The cost of a custom ground application or your own sprayer (including payments, depreciation, fuel, maintenance, time, and wages) all cost money.

​

Trial studies show that aerial application will increase your yield by 2.5%-3.5% vs. ground application. This is due to tracks left behind by the ground sprayer.

 

Let’s figure this out. A ground application at a 2.5% loss on a 60-bushel canola crop with a canola price of $15 per bushel will cost you $22.50 per acre in track loss. And at 3.5% its $31.50 an acre.

 

60 x 2.5%= 1.5 bushels

1.5 x $15 = $22.50 per acre loss when using a ground application

 

It adds up, that's $3600 on 160 acres!
 

Remember this is ONLY the cost of tracks. Aerial application more than pays for itself in track loss alone giving you and your staff more of your valuable time and energy back to tackle other jobs around the farm.
