Helicopter Application for Agricultural Projects in Massachusetts
In Massachusetts, helicopter aerial applications for agricultural crop dusting, mosquito and pest control, and weed and brush control provide cost-effective and highly-efficient alternatives to ground treatments. Improve the quality of your harvests by applying complete and consistent coverage to your crops. Aerial applications allow growers and farmers to access remote and rugged terrains with limited environmental impact, providing next-generation solutions to your current agricultural demands.
Helicopters for aerial applications can be transported by truck directly to growing areas, while the treatment chemicals can be mixed and loaded directly on the truck platforms. In Massachusetts, most aerial applications make use of smaller aircraft with larger load capacities, like the Robinson R44 and Bell 47, which are equipped with DGPS to guarantee precision, extensive coverage and lower fuel costs. Working with Massachusetts farmers and growers, FairLifts schedules aerial application solutions for crop surveys, line inspections, and frost prevention. Our global network of FAA-certified pilots provides the expertise for accurate aerial applications.
Agriculture in the Bay State
With nearly 8,000 farms, Massachusetts produces $492 million in agricultural products each year, providing nearly 28,000 workers with employment. While many farms saw a decline in agriculture from 2007 to 2012, Massachusetts was one of the few states that recorded a 1% growth in both the number of farms and acres in farmland. Massachusetts ranks sixth in the US for the number of farms with Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) — a 95% increase since 2007. During this period, the state’s agritourism sales increased by 127%. In Massachusetts, 80% of farms are family owned, therefore, agricultural land preservation, environmental conservation, energy efficiency and business planning are vital to the future of the state’s agricultural enterprises.
