Analysis and pinpoint application for fruit growing — row by row, in harmony with the ecological balance.
FELDFALKE applies plant strengtheners, foliar fertilizer and micronutrients in orchards by drone, row by row, even when the soil is too soft for the tractor, and maps orchard vitality beforehand on request. For fruit growers around Lake Constance, in Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria and Switzerland. From 65 € per hectare net including travel (calculated for a 10-hectare orchard); FELDFALKE flies 5 hectares in about two hours, usually a few days after the enquiry.
Precision orcharding combines efficiency and sustainability: the multispectral drone detects plant stress, diseases such as scab and mildew, or nutrient deficiencies at an early stage — the agricultural drone delivers plant strengthening agents, foliar fertilizer and micronutrients exactly where they are needed.
Scab, mildew, codling moth — particularly challenging in organic fruit growing.
High water and product consumption with blanket treatment.
Heavy machinery in the orchard damages soil and roots.
Multispectral imagery makes invisible plant stress visible.
Treatment only where there is an actual need.
Complete records for organic certification and farm management.
Service area: Lake Constance region, Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, Southern Germany and Switzerland — further afield on request. Flight planning, airspace clearances and application documentation are handled by our certified drone pilots.

Net, calculated for a 10-hectare orchard and about 20 km of travel from Überlingen, 15 litres of spray mix per hectare. Smaller orchards cost more per hectare because travel and planning stay the same. Minimum order 200 €. Several orchards on the same day lower the travel cost. You see your price range right below in 30 seconds; after your enquiry we email you a firm quote within 24 hours.
As of 1 October 2026
A fruit farm on Lake Constance wants to apply calcium against bitter pit before harvest; after thunderstorm rain the soil is too soft for the tractor. We fly 15 litres per hectare row-accurately in the open orchard, in one morning.
In Germany plant strengthening agents, foliar fertilizers and micronutrients, for example calcium against bitter pit or boron at flowering. Crop protection from the air is restricted to steep-slope viticulture in Germany. In Switzerland we also fly crop protection in the orchard, see the Switzerland page (German).
Not under closed netting. We schedule the dates before closing in spring or after opening in autumn, or fly the parts of the orchard that are open.
The drone flies row-accurately close above the canopy; the rotor downwash pushes the droplets into the tree. Hardly anything falls between the rows, which saves product compared with the air-blast sprayer.
For large orchards or unclear symptoms. The multispectral map shows stress, deficiency and gaps per row; afterwards we treat only where necessary, and you have the record for certification.
Usually within a few days, in season at weekends too. If the weather window is short, we confirm the date the day before.
From 65 € per hectare net including travel; the basis of calculation is in the price box above. 5 hectares cost from around 480 € net. You supply the products, the minimum order is 200 €.
We take care of the flight planning and the documentation. We check with you beforehand whether your field needs a special permit.
The Lake Constance fruit-growing region is our core: Tettnang, Kressbronn, Friedrichshafen, Markdorf, Überlingen and Thurgau. From Überlingen most orchards are reachable in under an hour, so single blocks are worthwhile too. Cherries and plums on the Upper Rhine and in the Hegau we fly as well.
Vitality and deficiency per row, before the fruit suffers.
Foliar fertilization and micronutrients outside the orchard too.
For Swiss fruit farms: crop protection in the orchard is permitted.
Plant strengthening and foliar fertilization row-accurately, price at the end.
