Greenhouse shading by drone
Uniform coverage, operators always on the ground.
We apply shading mixtures to greenhouse roofs using a professional agricultural drone, reducing water use, work time and work at height.

Frequently asked questions
Information to assess the service
How much water does drone shading require?
The published operational reference is approximately 30 litres per 1,000 m², compared with approximately 300 litres for the manual method. The actual mixture is defined for each specific operation.
Do operators need to climb onto the greenhouse roof?
No. The service is designed to keep operators on the ground, avoiding manual work at height on the covering.
Where does Agricoltura Dronica operate?
RESEC is based in Ragusa and assesses operations throughout Italy, subject to technical, logistical and operational checks for each mission.
