Toro-Drone

Field Management Services for Surface Farmers,
Orchardists and Grape Growers

Drone Mapping
& Spraying Services
for Oil & Gas Companies
and Wind Farms in Western Canada

We provide Precision Farming solutions using Drones and Multispectral Imaging


By using Drones, we are able to provide crop spraying faster and more efficiently than conventional methods. We can spray crops when the land is too wet for heavy tractors and self propelled sprayers. With our atomized sprayers we can increase efficiency and save farmers money on product costs.

Using Multispectral imaging, we can detect diseases and insect infestations before they become a problem and we can help farmers improve their crop yields.

We are bringing the future to Canadian farmers’ fields!




2 sectors

We are targeting 2 agricultural sectors

Grape growers and Orchardists centered in the interior of British Columbia and the Niagara region of Ontario

Surface Farming focused on southern Alberta and Saskatchewan




What we do:

 

Provide spraying services for fertilizers and pesticides for all crops

 

Spraying fall and spring when it is impossible to access fields with heavy surface equipment

 

Provide accurate diagnoses of crop health & conditions in real time

 

Assist in determining the best products and concentrations for applications

 

Accurately determine moisture level in crops to ensure optimal harvest times

 







We are on the leading edge of technology in the agricultural sector




Faster

3 X faster than traditional methods

Cost Effective

On average 50% cheaper than conventional spraying

Accurate Plant
Health Diagnosis

Multispectral Imaging integrated with data-sequencing and neural-networking provides high accuracy, real time plant health and field data







What we offer:

Drones As Tools

By offering complete and functional applications, drones can relieve farmers of their most arduous operations.




Real time savings

Drones actively participate in soil structure conservation and have a very small carbon footprint compared to traditional methods

Fertilizing: Spreading of biocontrol products, applying pesticides, fungicides and insecticides




NEW to Canadian Agriculture

Multispectral IoT Services

Multispectral imagery provides information crucial for managing irrigation, fertilizing, herbicide, fungicide and pesticide applications as well as harvesting operations. It can also be applied in forestry, pedology (soil analysis) and high-throughput phenotyping (spectral signature of plants).




Combines data from multiple sensors to measure crop health

Detects weeds, insects and a variety of soil conditions

Multispectral imaging combined with IoT provides farmers and agronomists with tools to improve crop yields, cut costs and help monitor vegetation on the land they manage




Operating Impact on Farmers



FERTILIZER AND PESTICIDE APPLICATIONS
Fertilizer and pesticide applications can be completed in less than half the time it currently takes traditional methods

REDUCE FERTILIZER AND PESTICIDE QUANTITIES
The quantities of fertilizers and pesticides are substantially reduced, by as much as 75% in some cases, and on average 50%

REDUCE ASSET COSTS AND OVERALL APPLICATION COSTS
Farmers can cut their asset costs dramatically and at the same time reduce their overall application costs by as much as 50%

Management Impact for Farmers



NO MANUAL CHECK IN
Farmers no longer need to manually check on crop health, soil moisture, nutrient levels and crop maturity

UP TO DATE INFORMATION
Through the use of multispectral imaging and IoT, information is available to farmers in real time on their computer or smartphone

SCHEDULE FERTILIZER, FUNGICIDE OR PESTICIDE APPLICATIONS
On that same computer or smartphone, farmers can also schedule fertilizer, fungicide or pesticide applications and refer to historical data to make informed decisions

Our mission is to provide a complete service package for our customers




Herbicide spraying services for
energy companies in western Canada


As wind farming becomes mainstream in Alberta and Saskatchewan, we can provide safe, environmentally friendly, localized spraying to keep the weeds under control around this valuable equipment
With our ecologically friendly equipment, we are able to map and spray oil & gas leases and production facilities without stepping foot on the lease
We can survey pipeline right-of-ways at a fraction of the cost of fixed-wing aircraft or helicopters



Operating Impact on Energy Companies



ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
Reduced carbon footprint, drones are battery operated

REMOTE OPERATION
Operations are completely remote, no contact with the ground. Avoidance system does not allow contact with any stationary objects

FAST, SAFE & EFFECTIVE
Faster, safer and more efficient applicator system uses less herbicide than conventional methods

In our first year of operation we will demonstrate the multiple advantages of drones


 

Develop a multispectral database of plant and crop information in conjunction with local Canadian Universities

Design and introduce an App in conjunction with our Multispectral partner (AGROWING), using Canadian technology, that will allow farmers the ability to see the status of their fields, at the touch of a button

 

 

 

 

Conduct pilot projects with agricultural clients, where we will demonstrate the various abilities of drones and collect data to refine our processes and expand our database

We provide commercial spraying services to the agricultural industry, oil & gas companies and wind farms to offset the required investment for the research & development of the Artificial Intelligence, Neural-Networking, Machine Learning and Data Sequencing components of our business




In the second year we will expand internationally


We will expand our spraying operations to the Mendoza region of Argentina, allowing us the opportunity to use our equipment 12 months per year. We have established contacts with growers in Mendoza who have expressed interest in pilot projects.


We will continue building and refining the data base and the user App as we intend to roll-out the finished product in the third year of operation

We will further grow our weed control business in the energy sectors in Alberta and Saskatchewan

We also plan to expand our business into the Niagara region in Ontario, both in corn farming and grape growing, as well as the grape growing regions of northern California and the northwestern United States
