DRONE TREATMENTS
BIOCONTROL AND PRECISION SPRAYING: DUAL EXPERTISE FOR CROP PROTECTION
AGREEGO offers a complete range of drone treatments, combining cutting-edge biocontrol and precision spraying. Our solutions are designed to provide maximum protection for your crops while strictly complying with current regulations. Whether for pest control or nutrient application, drone technology ensures targeted and responsible application.
DRONE BIOCONTROL: TRICHOGRAMMA RELEASE AGAINST THE EUROPEAN CORN BORER
Secure your yields with natural and effective protection against the European corn borer. This biological solution uses parasitoid insects to neutralise corn borer eggs before they become destructive larvae.
Drone trichogramma release achieves up to 90% efficacy against the European corn borer. These parasitoid insects are precisely deposited onto the crop at the optimal moment, neutralising corn borer eggs before they hatch. Protection extends over approximately 3 weeks through multi-wave emergence, with no buffer zone restrictions.
THE ADVANTAGES OF TRICHOGRAMMA DRONE APPLICATION AGREEGO
Using drones for trichogramma release offers considerable benefits over traditional methods, particularly in terms of speed, precision and crop respect.
PRECISION DRONE SPRAYING
For your biostimulant, trace element or liquid biocontrol needs, AGREEGO deploys a fleet of spraying drones capable of operating on all types of plots, in full compliance with legislation.
This spraying service is backed by solid field experience gained in Central Europe, where we already operate on thousands of hectares each year. This operational expertise allows us to guarantee precision application, perfectly adapted to farmer requirements and the specifics of each plot.
LAW 2025-365: REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR DRONE SPRAYING IN FRANCE
In France, drone spraying is a regulated practice that prioritises agroecological transition. AGREEGO is committed to complying with current standards to ensure the safety and legality of every intervention:
Frequently asked questions about drone treatments
- The drone flies over the corn plots to be treated and drops capsules containing live trichogrammas — natural auxiliary insects that parasitise European corn borer eggs. The mission is planned via AGREEGO Cloud to cover the entire plot homogeneously, with no machinery entering the crop. Efficacy can reach up to 90% reduction in borer damage.
- Yes, under certain conditions. Law 2025-365 strictly regulates drone spraying in France: only authorised products (biostimulants, trace elements, biocontrol treatments) can be applied by drone on specific crops. AGREEGO operates in full compliance with these regulations and maintains a traceable intervention report for each service.
- Biocontrol (trichogrammas, biostimulants) uses natural organisms or substances to protect crops — with no untreated zone (buffer zone) or chemical residues. In France, drone spraying of chemical pesticides is prohibited, except in exceptional derogation cases. AGREEGO prioritises biocontrol solutions to minimise environmental impact, while offering precision spraying for regulatory interventions.
