Poll: 33 percent of farmers and ranchers flying drones this year

According to a recent Farm Journal Media Pulse poll that surveyed more than a thousand farmers and ranchers, use of drone technology has definitely gained a firm foothold in the industry. The poll asked, “Will you use a drone(s) on your operation this year?” Of the nearly 1,100 respondents, a third answered positively, with 21 percent saying they will operate the drones themselves, and another 12 percent opting for a retailer or other third-party entity to fly the drones.

The final 37 percent say they aren’t interested in using this technology. Read more at Drovers CatttleNetwork…
