Granular Spreading & Cover Crop Seeding
High-capacity drone spreading for cover crops, dry fertilizer, and granular products across Northeast Missouri and Southeast Iowa. Zero soil compaction, zero crop trample loss, and unmatched precision on terrain ground rigs can't touch.

Primary Spreading & Dry Application Services
Our heavy-lift drones are engineered with high-capacity spinning disk spreading systems, providing a rapid, even way to distribute dry inputs without disturbing soil biology or knocking down crops.

Cover Crop Seeding
Seed directly into standing corn and soybeans before harvest to get winter cover established early. We broadcast cereal rye, clover, radishes, brassicas, and custom conservation blends.

Dry Fertilizer Boost
Deliver late-season nitrogen (Urea / Ammonium Sulfate) when your crop demands it most—even after full canopy closure when high-clearance tractors can no longer enter the field.

Granular Pest Control
Target stubborn weeds or specific insect infestations with dry-formulated herbicides and insecticides, offering residual root protection and long-lasting seasonal control.

Pasture Seeding & Reclamation
Easily frost-seed, re-seed, or thicken thin pastures, timber edges, and steep, rocky hillsides that are completely inaccessible or dangerous for tractors, drills, and ATVs.

Pollinator Habitat & CRP Seeding
Ensure even distribution of lightweight, fluffy native wildflower and grass seeds for conservation reserve programs (CRP), wildlife food plots, and ecological buffer strips.

The Agronomic & Technical Advantage
Uniform Swath & Zero Streaking
Our dynamic disc spreading system delivers calibrated particle ejection, guaranteeing a consistent swath width across every pass without the heavy streaks or uneven banding common to ground rigs.

Radar Terrain Contour Tracking
Multi-directional millimeter-wave radar senses the canopy or soil profile continuously, maintaining a precise altitude above rolling hills, terraces, and waterways for repeatable spread geometry.

Variable Rate Spreading (VRS)
Upload prescription maps and yield goals directly to the flight controller. The system automatically adjusts application rates on the fly—increasing seed or nitrogen in depleted zones while trimming input waste in fertile zones.

Zero Soil Compaction & Trample
Heavy spreaders create deep soil ruts and crush 3–5% of mature standing crops. Hazel Hill delivers full application volume from above, keeping your ground structure pristine and yields intact.

Performance Comparison: Drone vs. Ground Equipment
See how aerial dry spreading eliminates common operational bottlenecks and safeguards your bottom line:

Operational Metric    Traditional Ground Spreader    Hazel Hill Drone Spreading
Field Access in Wet Conditions    Stuck in mud; heavy ruts damage drainage and delay seeding    In the air immediately when rain stops; zero ground disturbance
Late-Season Crop Trample    3% to 5% typical yield reduction caused by tires/tracks    0% crop damage—broadcasts cleanly above standing canopy
Soil Compaction    Severe hardpan compaction along repeated equipment tracks    Zero ground pressure—protects root structure and soil tilth
Steep Slopes & Rough Pastures    Rollover hazard; leaves hillside thin spots untreated    Safe, full coverage regardless of slope grade or obstacles
Turnkey Field Setup & Spreading Capabilities
Custom Field Tender & Spreader Rig
We arrive fully self-contained with our specialized enclosed tender trailer, bulk seed/fertilizer transfer systems, and rapid battery fast-chargers. Our turnaround times are measured in minutes, ensuring maximum acreage covered every operational window.

Have a specialized project or non-standard seed mix? Whether it's an experimental crop, secluded wildlife food plot, or conservation embankment, if it can be flown, we can spread it with pinpoint consistency.
