Drones are increasingly becoming a valuable tool for modern farming, but with this technology comes a need to understand the rules. In this webinar Mark will take a practical look at what growers need to know before taking flight including:

• A basic run down of drone legislation – where can I fly, do I need to register, what licensing (if any) do I need?
• Herbicide spraying using drones – Risks vs Benefits
• Flying over other people’s land, business and national forests
• Flying drones under the influence of drugs/alcohol
• Am I responsible for any breaches of legislation a contracted drone operator may make?
• How quickly is drone technology evolving?
