Hi all! If you're in a drone community across social media please share this video with your group(s). I'd like hear as much feedback as possible about this autonomous agriculture drone. Thanks! -Matthew
You probably dont give a shit but does any of you know a way to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost the login password. I would love any assistance you can offer me!
@Emilio Kasen i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Autonomous aerial drones and ground-level drones will definitely have a place in production agriculture. My expectation is that big, corporate-type farms will see the advantages/take the risks, and make the investments as the tech matures. My hope is that it also allows smaller farmers to realize some benefits as well. Either through a rental service that brings out such drones on a per-application basis, or as an alternative to big expensive tractors/sprayers that allow them to do precision treatments as and when they need to.
Thanks Ed! We are definitely enjoying the sun. They day we flew the drone I enjoyed the sun too much and darn near burnt my ears off. Hehe. Take care my man! -M.
Computerised video comments are already here but you Matthew are way more entertaining. The local farmer did not look like he wanted to answer your questions so I guess it will be a while before he is an enthusiast for drone technology.
Thank you Charles! You're right. The farmer certainly hesitated. But to his credit I'm not sure how many times he's asked that. I'm not sure if hectares are the typical unit of measurement for farmers here too. They're farms/fields are so small they usually use square meters. Hesitation never-the-less. You're right. Thanks for the nice comment, Charles. -M.
Hey Matthew! GREAT Video! We love hearing about the success of our customers and your channel is a great resource for so many people who are interested in the 'Ag-volution' happening around the world. Keep up the great work! -Bryan@HSE
Hey Jaun, is that you? I received your emails and thanks for this message. We are traveling back to California from Brazil today. I’ll give you a call once we get home and get settled in. Abraço. -Matthew
My concern would be the low payload of the drone indicates whatever is being applied must be highly concentrated posing concerns about handling of both the equipment and the chemicals pre and particularly post application . How is this being addressed ? How do you clean the little critter and neutralize the effects of what you're applying ? Much of its time must be in a toxic environment and does this affect the drone, its power supplies, and motors ?
O avanço da tecnologia é inexorável. Quando chegar a uma capacidade de carga em torno de 40 litros acredito que o uso do drone estará fadado ao sucesso. Exelente vídeo Matt!
Cara que bacana ver um vídeo do bairro onde moro apresentado por um americano,parabéns pelo vídeo e seja sempre bem vindo para voltar a Vila Nova, Joinville - Brasil!
Another great video. I hope that your wife's family enjoys the visit. I would love to see how they process local rice for the Brazilian market, or do they export it all? Gridley I hear is cold and wet.
I've been trying to find drone to spraying large areas of corn/soybean in Mato Grosso. But heavier payload is a must. Perhaps Yuri Pederii's Aerodrone? I've attended a HSE demonstration in Orlando-FL a couple years ago, but payload was only 20 lbs. Any improvement yet?
Mr. Sligar, I have a little rice farm but am not the operator, too worn out. But I watch the industry, it fascinates me and is part of my livelihood. That drone interests me. At this pace John Deere drones will cover our farms before long. The Deere Drone will be much larger, probably turbine powered or something, require lots of licensing by the FAA but may become reality. It could conceivably broadcast weighted seed and spray, they just need to figure out a way to harvest and prepare seedbeds. Natch, between Deere and P&W it will happen. Still need a tractor for the grain cart though.......but it will be GPS directed too. We can still have tractor pulls though.
Its a neat concept I'm sure it has its place but it is much slower and charging batteries could be a bit of a pain. The big benefit is no ruts less crop damage. Good video #WorldsOkayestFarmer
Good video. If the drone could support a seeder, then the drone would be a good replacement for a tractor in the wet fields. Should be cheaper in costs than a tractor and take less energy.
Hey Matthew. We have so many things in common. You are a Farmer, I am an Agronomist. You are a home brewer, I am a home brewer and building a pub and a small brewery. And most important we are both married to a wonderful Brazilian. Love your videos and aways very ansious to see what comes next. Take it easy man and keep doing this great job farming and raising this beautiful family.
I can sure see you as a Fleet Commander in the not too distant future Matthew. What is the easier route: up scaling a drone or down scaling a helicopter? Either could be very beneficial with easy swap out tank / nozzle systems for a variety of applications. Question: during tractor mounted spray applications, what are the lost profits (perhaps per acre or per section) that arise from the tractor tracking through a field? -Bob...
We have here in denmark a lot of firms driving around to farms, doing field work like measurements of crops, state of crops and fertilizing. In EU you need an drone pilot license to work with drones, it’s that the same in the States?
Absolutely, Jim. Any where where crop-duster applications are prohibited this could work because the drone can fly so much lower and slower (causing less drift). It would especially work well next to sensitive crops (walnut orchards in our case). Great thought, Jim. Thanks. -M.
This method does seem to be almost as efficient as a tractor. It would be interesting to see how it compares to a crop duster and what kind of technology it would take to get a drone to crop duster level.
Hello Matthew, have tried the Agras MG 1P? if so please comment how do you like it and what do you think compared with these other two drones you've seen.
Customer feedback Rice applied with UNIGROW® Microbial Soil Conditioner only 900 grams per hectare, and can be spread with any fertilizer or fine soil (very convenient) , It has a good effect on the prevention and control of seedling blight and bacterial wilt in rice seedling stage. In the later field, the diseases and insect pests such as withering, rice blast, white leaf blight and rot fungus are also greatly reduced, and even no pesticide is used. The soil is loosened, the root system is developed, the ability to absorb nutrients is enhanced, the leaves in the growing stage stand upright, and the functional period is prolonged; the rice is effectively promoted and early tillering.
Case International has already produced a tractor capable of doing field work autonomously, so I believe this is just the beginning of possibly a new age to agriculture. But you'll have to deal with the farmers who are used to the "old ways"..and some aren't going to have it no matter how good the tech is. But still, the future?? Possibly...
Hey, Matthew. Drones are going everywhere for agriculture nowadays aren't they? Since you metioned in your video, I have a statement to make. My drone can also do the mission planning on a laptop. Acturely we are the leader of this technology. Assemble factories purchase the pilot system and put on their assembled drones. Physically mapping the field is one of the mapping options. Frankly speaking, this drone is a very primitive one, I can tell it comes from one of those hundreds assemble factories in China. AGRIZE is doing great when they try to introduce the drone tech into Ag, but they must be more cautious in choosing a right drone.
this drone is very useful for our paddy field, but i would llike to know if want to buy this drone from my country, how i should do. plz let me know it's available or not.
Possibly could be feasible in the distant future. However, I suspect that the law that has disallowed the use of crop dusters has more to do with this than anything else. Not sure of the immediate circumstances surrounding the law (maybe close proximity of farming operation to heavily populated area), but this is crippling those farmers. Seems like they've gotten ahead of themselves. Sorry to be negative, I just can't see where this would be a better option even than a tractor spray rig..
So why not hook up GPS to the tractor and use it to do all the work without needing to actually be in the tractor. Self driving tractors? I know the drone is easier on the fields sure and sometimes you can't actually drive a tractor in a rice field because of mud so a drone is better for those times. Maybe the self driving tractor is already a thing since GPS is already being used in heavy equipment like dozers but I haven't seen one drive itself. Hope you are enjoying your downtime with family Matthew!
Josh, imagine that! We just need these guys to get bigger (in the tank area), self charge (in flight) with solar panels and become more affordable. Then we can kick back and tell our kids how difficult we had it when you had to turn the wheel on the tractor at the turns while using auto-steer. Thanks for the message. Take care! -Matthew
Hey Matt love you videos, really enjoy learning about how you guys farm over there from this side of the pond. If you’re into drones my brother is running an experiment called hands-free Hectare at Harper Addams uni where by for the past two years they have cultivated, planted, maintained and harvested one hectare, first of barley and then wheat completely autonomously. It’s the first time it’s been done and this year there looking to increases the size of the experiment to I believe 30 hectares. Anyway if you want to check it out you can see some of there videos on RUclips at hands free hectare hfh
That's what we think about pretty hard.. Drones, but they are a bit expensive and sadly, here is no law for this, so we not realy want to jump in to it. But, this is is the future.
True Campilot. Refills and battery rotations certainly drag the "hour of operation/per hectare" operation rate down. But real flight time with full tanks is 15 minutes. -Matthew
@@Ricefarmingtv If you did it as a 2 drone operation, 1 flying, 1 refilling, and say 1 pilot/controller, 1 ground crew, plus a truck full of batteries/spray fluid you could cover a lot of ground.
Sun Shaker, that’s possible...having several drones flying within the same field on the same map-accelerating the days productivity. Great thought! -Matthew
the drone is flying way too high. also i don't think the down wash from the props is a plus. maybe a drone aircraft style drone is the way to go. and one other thing: why electric. a gas engine would be more efficient.
Good eveving ok my mane is sossohou razack i am in Africa in benin i am in technical training at Don Bosco i have my dreams of building drone and l do not have the means and l have difficulty Paying me please help me to give me a drone at least once in my life .
Certainly not a single man operation = not cost effective to have 2-4 people on site to handle the drone, you crash your drone...game over....you hit a fence with your tractor...you continue

A drone could fly at night while the air is still.
It could follow the contours of a tea plantation.
Multiple spray drones could fly in formation.
who will fill that drone tho

Doesnt rice need huge amount of water? Can such small amount of water irrigate a paddy field?
Its a neat concept I'm sure it has its place but it is much slower and charging batteries could be a bit of a pain. The big benefit is no ruts less crop damage. Good video #WorldsOkayestFarmer
Yes, a few advantages coupled with a few disadvantages. Becomes pretty useless with super large acreage-like our rice farms here in the US of A.
-M.
Good video. If the drone could support a seeder, then the drone would be a good replacement for a tractor in the wet fields. Should be cheaper in costs than a tractor and take less energy.
Actually, it can! Not only can be a seeder as a fertilzer as well. Soon it will be available in large scale.
Can you please recomend a drone that can do mappimg and pulverization? Thank you very much.
se vier um dia ao mato grosso ficaria surpreso com a tecnologia no agro responde a 29% de todo agro do Brasil.

That tank is so little! I'm curious the ratio of spray?
15 minutes seem too low. For flight time. Is it enough?

Using tractor will also squash some rice under the wheels ... that must reduce the yield /hectare
Thought boom height would be too high I’m in Uk and we spray at 50cms above the crop.
Sir,Which flight controller
come to know the south of the state of Santa Catarina here is also a very rice producing region
