Aerial Application Can Aid Mississippi Cash Crops
Overall, the state of Mississippi is enjoying strong demand for its top five cash crops; cotton, soybeans, corn, rice and peanuts. Farmers cite good weather last year helped this year’s yield. For instance, cotton production covers 650-700,000 acres of land across the state. The soybean crop has increased over 10,000 acres to about 2.2 million acres over 2017’s national numbers. That’s a lot of ground to cover. That’s why FairLifts can arrange for helicopter spraying to take over where ground rigs leave off. Save time and cut your costs.
Helicopter Aerial Application Options in Mississippi
FairLifts’ aerial applications network throughout Mississippi provides safe and accurate use of helicopters, a big improvement over fixed-wing aircraft. Helicopters have the advantage because they can cover a wider area than traditional ground rigs and they can apply herbicides, fungicides and pesticides without damaging crops in the process.
Crop Dusting: Fungicides, Fertilizer, Etc
Helicopter spraying produces greater control in the application process. For example, the Model 204 helicopter allows the pilot or operator to control how much chemical to apply. This gives better accuracy and less chance of spreading fungal spores and leaving tracks. Plus, GPS enables pilots to cover a greater area with more precision.
Mosquito and Pest Control
It’s amazing how much damage insects cause to agribusinesses each year. FairLifts can help you knock out any problems before they start with earth-friendly, yet effective pesticides. With aerial application, you can stay ahead of any critters that can hurt your cash crops. Helicopters can significantly cut down on the time it takes to apply chemicals. Plus, helicopters can get to just the right altitude for optimal precision. Another side benefit--no wasted pesticide.
Brush and Weed Control
Helicopters can apply fertilizers and herbicides as a rapid response to fast-growing weeds and invasive brush trying to overtake cash crops. Down draft is a great way to control the application because rotor movement drives deeper penetration into the crops by pushing down the chemical in droplets past the top soil to the deeper layers. The bottom line is that helicopter spraying gives crops better saturation for the best results.
Frost Prevention and Treatment
Downdraft helps aerial application in protecting your crops from ice and frost damage. By using the helicopter’s spinning rotors to force the warm air down to develop lift, down drafting gives much needed protection to your crops. This technique has been successfully used by wineries all over the country. A down draft provides greater accuracy to pilots and operators. It also gives your crops a fighting chance when the weather turns deadly.
