In the US there are approximately: 1,560 aerial application businesses (operations) 3,400 ag pilots. ~2,000 are hired pilots. ~1,400 are owner/operators (i.e. 87% of operators are pilots themselves) Aerial applications are conducted in all 50 states. Operations are located in 45 states—all but CT, HI, RI, VT and WV, according to NAAA records.
Aug 1, 2021 · To ensure future food security, soil-crop management practices need to be improved to achieve optimum yields (Tilman et al., 2011; Ray et al., 2012).One useful strategy to increase yield can be the growth of stress tolerant and high yield potential crops and/or cultivars in those areas where soil constraints, such as sodicity/salinity/acidity, decrease crop growth and yield (Dang et al., 2016).
