Across the UK, there are approximately 3,279,000 hectares of woodland, now accounting for 13.5% of the total land area. This figure is growing every year, which is fantastic for the environment and sustainability. However, managing such vast areas is no small task!
In 2023/24 alone, 20,660 hectares of new woodland were planted in the UK. Unfortunately, wild deer pose a significant threat to these forests. Traditional methods of managing deer damage, such as installing fencing and manually spraying deer repellent are both time-consuming and costly.
By embracing this new technology, you can effectively protect your woodland while improving safety and reducing costs.
This is where drones can offer a game-changing solution. Health and safety is a significant concern when handling chemicals, especially on uneven terrain. Woodlands present additional challenges, such as steep hillsides, and dense undergrowth.
Drones can navigate these hazards effortlessly, saving you time and money.
Once harvesting operations have finished there is the task of replanting. The 80l Revocast tank on our drone means we can spread any and all seed mixtures on any terrain. This is the perfect option when it comes to replanting or rewilding.
It is a legal requirement that OPM is treated. In the UK, many of OPM’s natural predators are absent.
Our solution: With the peristaltic pumps on the P100 Pro we can safely spray nematodes, killing all OPM and is a completely natural control method.
