Drones are used to "read" the fields and help putting fertilizer only where and when needed. Still you need a human for those inputs…  |
A farmer friend of mine that moved over to Canada years ago has cereal crops on massive plains that seem to stretch forever. The "huge" combines that he uses for harvesting are completely controlled by satellite navigation and all he does is sit in it keeping an eye on things and play about filming with his drone without any steering input from him.
The lines left on the ground filmed from the drones are absolutely dead strait for miles !
