For Pastoral Farmers

Steep gullies, fence lines and back-of-the-farm country where the tractor can’t reach. Weed control, seeding and slip recovery, delivered from above.

For Orchardists

Overhead is where the trouble lives. Aerial inspections, netting and structure maintenance, and well-timed organic fungicide application over your rows.

“We needed effective canopy spraying for our olives, and we were very pleased with Kerry’s services. As well as using less product than we had been forced to use with ground spraying, Kerry was able to provide coverage maps and we could examine and adjust leaf coverage to our requirements.”

Pastoral Farming Services

01

Pasture Weed Control

Winter pasture spraying including docks, willow weed, thistles and other broadleaf weeds. Precision treatment reduces unnecessary product use and allows treatment of isolated infestations.

02

Hill Country Weed Control

Blackberry, gorse, broom and other invasive weeds on steep terrain, gullies, fence lines and difficult-access country where conventional equipment may be limited.

03

Seasonal Crop Spraying

Support for forage crops, pasture renewal programmes and selected seasonal spraying applications requiring rapid deployment and targeted coverage.

04

Liquid Fertiliser Application

Application of liquid nutrients and biological products to support pasture productivity where access limitations restrict traditional methods.

05

Aerial Seeding & Slip Recovery

Post-slip and erosion recovery work using pasture seed, cover crops and rehabilitation seed mixes in areas where machinery access is impractical.

Orchard Services

Aerial Orchard Inspections

Routine inspections can identify storm damage, irrigation issues, shelterbelt problems, netting damage, flooding, drainage concerns and infrastructure defects. Customers receive photographic documentation and prioritised recommendations.

Orchard Infrastructure Maintenance

Canopy netting and overhead structures can accumulate moss, algae, mould and lichen. Aerial treatment is often the most logical approach because the target surface is overhead. Benefits include speed, safety and direct access.

Organic Fungicide Application

Organic fungicides are generally used preventatively and timing is critical. Drone operations can support rapid application after rainfall events or when orchard access is constrained. Key messages are responsiveness, timing and reduced compaction.
