10 Poll When do you plan to start using drones on the farm / at your company?

11 Drones in Agriculture

12 Why Use DroneDeploy on the Farm? Maximize yields and minimize costs with drone mapping Identify crop stress and variability in minutes Immediately ground-truth your findings Make crop management decisions with ondemand data Explore seasonal trends and plan for the next season

13 Putting Drone Data to Use

14 Get Value All Season Long Purchase Equipment Evaluate and invest in drone, drone service or software Stand count Evaluate whether to replant in any area Soil mapping Map bare soil & evaluate with historic maps Crop scouting Detect crop stress, monitor tests Application Decisions Map to inform variable rate applications for nitrogen, pesticides, etc. Irrigation Optimization Using NDVI, elevation models Yield projections Use map to estimate harvest Evaluate & Plan Review season s maps & tests, compare historical data to plan for next year Drainage repair Evaluate elevation maps

15 Identify Crop Variability Spot crop stress and rapidly eliminate threats to your field Quickly gather aerial insights in your fields Uncover disease, parasites, fungi, and more with drone imagery Ground-truth your findings and start making informed crop decisions

16 Ground Truth Findings Spot crop stress and rapidly eliminate threats to your field Quickly gather aerial insights in your fields Uncover disease, parasites, fungi, and more with drone imagery Ground-truth your findings and start making informed crop decisions

17 Introducing Live Map

18 Real-Time Mapping on Your ipad or iphone

19 Hours of waiting for crop imagery are over. We can capture realtime data in seconds without an internet connection, and begin making smarter crop management decisions before the drone hits the ground. Justin Metz Technology Integration Specialist Bowles Farm

20 See the Big Picture Instantly No SD cards, no laptop, and no waiting Instant results On-site decisions Mobile maps Crop health in real time

21 In-Field Data for In-Field Decisions Examine crops, analyze plant health, and immediately ground truth your findings Eliminate the need to walk your field or upload images from home Spot crop variability, stress, and storm damage for immediate investigation Pin notes to your Live Map as you explore crops and gather samples
