Will drones be the preferred choice for vineyard spraying tomorrow
We went to watch a demonstration at Château Mangot in Saint-Emilion.
The result is spectacular. This drone is capable of treating a hectare of vines in 45 minutes. It can resume its flight path exactly where it left off after each refill. It could be a viable option for steep hillside and mountain vineyards.
No need yet for such a machine in our vineyards, which are, all in all, relatively flat.
Many thanks to the Todeschini brothers for their warm welcome.
