High precision application with a drone

Caption

On the left, the brown vegetation is a patch of Phragmites australis where herbicide was applied with a drone the previous fall. On the right is a control patch that was not treated with herbicide and remains green. The high precision application with a drone reduced the extent of non-target effects to neighboring vegetation.
