Is the mission observe or apply?
Imaging and application aircraft have different payloads, approvals, training, maintenance, and business economics.
13 TRACKED SYSTEMSAircraft guide · Crop and field work
Agricultural drones separated by scouting, mapping, and application.
Compare crop-scouting, mapping, spray, and spread systems by payload, acreage, support network, application workflow, licensing, and field logistics.
What belongs in this category
Start with the operating system, not the product name.
Agricultural drone work includes several different jobs. A scouting aircraft captures evidence. A mapping system creates repeatable spatial products. A spray or spread aircraft applies material and adds a much larger operational, licensing, chemical-label, maintenance, and logistics stack.

Before comparing specifications
Answer these three questions first.
What acreage and turnaround matter?
Tank or hopper size, refill cycle, battery swapping, charging power, water, mixing, transport, and field access determine throughput.
Who supports the system locally?
Dealer training, parts, pumps, nozzles, batteries, calibration, repairs, and regulatory guidance can matter more than purchase price.

Comparison framework
Compare the whole working system.
Use the same four-part check for every candidate. It keeps one impressive specification from hiding a weak workflow, support path, or operating fit.
Mission
RGB scouting, multispectral capture, stand counts, drainage, mapping, spraying, spreading, or seeding.
Throughput
Effective swath, payload, refill time, battery cycle, field shape, terrain following, and transport logistics.
Application
Droplet or granule control, flow calibration, chemical label, records, drift management, and state pesticide requirements.
Support
Dealer coverage, training, parts, pumps, nozzles, batteries, software, firmware, and seasonal service response.
Part 107 is only the first credential for application work.
Dispensing agricultural material from an aircraft can involve FAA Part 137, aircraft exemptions or approvals, state pesticide credentials, product-label compliance, recordkeeping, and local operating limits. Build the approval and support path before pricing jobs.

Frequently asked questions
- Can I spray crops with only a Part 107 certificate?
- Do not assume so. Agricultural application can require Part 137 authority, an aircraft-specific approval path, state pesticide credentials, label compliance, and additional records or operating conditions.
- Is a multispectral drone required for crop scouting?
- No. RGB imagery can document visible stand, drainage, lodging, storm, and access conditions. Multispectral data can add value when the workflow, calibration, ground truth, and agronomic interpretation support it.
- How should I compare spray-drone capacity?
- Compare the complete field cycle: payload, swath, refill and battery time, charging infrastructure, transport, terrain, calibration, wind limits, support, and the legal application workflow. Tank size alone is not throughput.
