Row Crops

Our headquarters is in the corn belt. America is built on our nation’s farmers. Our row crop services aid those farmers in increasing yield potential by taking out disease and invasive insects. With the use of helicopters, we can reduce the amount of times a ground rig has to cross a field, reducing damage from tire tracks. The helicopter’s downwash is a great aid in pollination of the crops as well as penetration of the canopy to get great coverage from the spray application.

Rangeland

Helicopters are a great choice in remote, rough terrain rangeland projects. The helicopter’s spray speed of approximately 65 mph can hold to the terrain better than our fixed wing counterparts in rough areas, giving the customer the best application possible in those hard-to-reach places. Our efficiency in wide open areas ramps up as we have our load truck packed with fuel and chemical directly on the spray site.

Forestry

The use of helicopters in forestry is very popular, again shining in those remote areas with limited access. We can aid forestry projects in site prep or conifer release. We can also apply tree seeds with the use of our spreader bucket.

Seeding

Cover crops are becoming more and more popular due to the advantageous byproducts from seeding them. They are used for aiding in compaction, nutrients in the soil, etc. With the use of our spreader bucket, we can aid your operation in applying cover crops.

An extra shot of nitrogen might be just what your corn needs this season. We can top dress urea, too.

Fires out west happen. Our seeding abilities can help restore those burn scars with native grasses before invasive species have the chance to take over.

Predator Control

Hunting predators from a helicopter can aid your ranch. Problematic predators can become a very expensive problem very quickly. We can hunt and eliminate problems to your livestock herds.

Setting Roof Top Units

Our capabilities here are light, but needed. Our helicopters are only capable of lifting units less than 1000 lbs, but we have found that those units can be located in hard-to-reach spots. Often out of reach of a crane, utilizing the helicopter will be more cost effective due to the size of crane needed to reach the unit.
