Greenhouse and Polytunnel Shading: Why Drones Are Changing the Way Growers Protect Crops
Greenhouses and polytunnels are designed to create controlled growing environments, but in warm, bright conditions they can quickly become difficult to manage. Excess heat, intense sunlight and uneven light distribution can put crops under pressure, affecting growth, quality and marketable yield. For many growers, shading and cleaning are not optional extras. They are part of managing the crop environment properly. Greenhouse Shading with P100 Pro Traditionally, greenhouse an

Cover Cropping by Drone: A Smarter Way to Build Healthier Soils and Stronger Crops
For many UK farmers, harvest marks the end of one season. Increasingly, it is also the beginning of the next. Across the country, more growers are recognising that the weeks immediately before and after harvest present a valuable opportunity to improve soil health, reduce nutrient losses and establish crops that will benefit the following season. Cover cropping has become one of the most effective tools available to achieve this, and drone technology is making it easier than

Why Maize Foliar Applications Are a Good Fit for Drones
Maize is a crop where timing, access and crop protection can quickly become a challenge. Early in the season, most applications can be carried out using conventional machinery without too much difficulty. However, once the crop gets taller and the canopy starts to close over, physical access becomes more limited. At that point, every pass through the field has the potential to cause crop damage, soil disturbance and unnecessary stress to the plant. This is where agricultural

The Future of Heavy-Lift Agricultural Drones: More Than Just Spraying Crops
For many people, agricultural drones are still viewed as a niche spraying tool used only for applying liquid products to crops. In reality, heavy-lift drone platforms are rapidly evolving into versatile aerial utility systems capable of solving a huge range of challenges across agriculture, estates, infrastructure, environmental management and beyond. At Apex Agri Systems, we believe the technology is still only scratching the surface of its true potential. As battery systems
