Farmer’s feedback
"XAG V40's autonomous flight and precision spraying prevent the pesticides from drifting away, which saves water, chemicals and fuel. The V40 only needs 500L water to spray the 10ha fields, while a helicopter needs 5000L. This also create a safer working environment by separating the operator from chemicals."
