aerial application

Aerial application involves using aircraft, such as planes or helicopters, to evenly distribute substances like pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers over large areas of farmland or landscapes. This method allows for quick, efficient coverage that can reach difficult or extensive terrains more effectively than ground equipment. It is commonly used in agriculture to protect crops, control pests, or promote growth, ensuring timely and uniform application while minimizing soil compaction and other logistical challenges associated with ground-based methods.
