Drones in agriculture
This course will teach you how to use drones to collect farm data to help make informed decisions such as refined fertiliser plans, sowing plans or monitoring water systems.
Check the quad bike. Is it safe? Do you know what to look for? Then ride the quad bike. Do you know its limitations? What you can and can’t do on it? And when you get back safely, do you have a procedure for shutting it down and making sure it’s ready to go next time you need it?
Tocal's one day course will teach even the most experienced rider how to operate them safely.
