Today, sunflower is the main oil crop in Russia.

Our country grows about 70% of the world’s sunflower, so its quality and yield is the most important component for a highly profitable agricultural enterprise.

Together with the country’s leading research institutes, Fly&See has worked out a whole range of services to improve the yield and biological protection of sunflower:

  • Defining the need of the crops in NPK fertilisers;
  • Point introduction of fungicides in the centers of diseases and pests;
  • Introduction entomophages for plant protection (trichogrammae and habrobracon);
  • Introduction of herbicides into pockets of cereal germination and root weeds;
  • Creation of digital field maps to monitor sunflower growth and forecast yields;
  • Monitoring of sunflower fields for early detection of pests and diseases;
  • Desiccation;
  • Improved pollination quality: ultra-low volume crop spraying with micro-fertilisers and growth stimulants.

Stages of work to increase sunflower yield using drones:

1 fase
Autumn/winter:
  • Identification of sunflower varieties for sowing;
  • Selection of areas and geography of crops;
  • Calculation and preliminary order for the production of entomophages in the required volume together with the All-Russian Research Institute of Biological Plant Protection.
2 fase
Spring:
  • Crop control;
  • Determination of sunflower demand for growth stimulants and NPK fertilisers and their application;
  • Improving the pollination quality;
  • Drawing up a scheme for arranging pheromone traps;
  • Monitoring the start of the mass flight.
3 fase
End of May/summer:
  • Introduction of Chrysopidae for biological plant protection;
  • Monitoring of flight;
  • First introduction of trichogrammae;
  • Monitoring of fields to control the centres of diseases and pests;
  • The second introduction of trichogramma and further monitoring, in case there are caterpillars of 3-4 generations – introduction of habrobracon.
