The fight against the dock in grassland management requires constant action. Despite careful cultivation, this weed recurs over and over again. Dock has an enormous potential for seed formation and retains its germination ability for decades. We offer an effective and sustainable solution by replacing the traditional method of chemical point control with a process using intelligent drones. During this process we learn about the land we observe.
AUTOMATIC WEED CONTROL
FIGHTING DOCK WAS NEVER EASIER
We offer a fully automated weed [dock] control for meadows through intelligent drones [AI] to improve forage production sustainably.

Therefore, we are able to provide areal information to our customers in the course of fighting weed. Another aspect of our innovative idea regards sustainability. Through the digital memory of our drones we can retarget the previously controlled spots and deploy grass seeds in order to close the gaps.

Point Control
In comparison to other offers we are different in the way that we focus rather on point control than on area wide spraying.
Sustainability
By integrating the aspect of reseeding the previously controlled spots into our project we close the cycle of a sustainable management process.
Health
Through our service the farmer is no longer in touch with chemicals, as the drone takes over this part. Also the health of the topsoil can be guaranteed by avoiding heavy machines.
