Bhandara, eastern Vidarbha's lake district, is part of Maharashtra's rice bowl — paddy dominates Tumsar, Pauni and Sakoli talukas, irrigated by centuries-old malguzari tanks and the Wainganga river. Wading through standing-water fields with a knapsack pump is slow and risky, so drones are a natural fit here, delivering uniform sprays for blast and brown planthopper without a single footprint in the puddled field.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the drone spraying price per acre for paddy in Bhandara?
Paddy drone spraying in Bhandara typically costs ₹400-₹500 per acre. Flat, bunded paddy blocks in Tumsar and Pauni are among the fastest terrain a drone covers, which keeps rates at the lower end of the band. Many farmers split a booking across adjacent bunds to share the visit. Live rates are shown in the CropWings app.
Can a drone spray a flooded paddy field for brown planthopper?
Yes — this is where drones beat manual spraying outright. BPH colonises the base of paddy tillers, and drone downwash parts the canopy to push droplets down the stem, all without anyone wading through standing water. In Bhandara's tank-fed fields, an acre is done in about seven minutes with 8-10 litres of spray solution.
When should Bhandara farmers spray for paddy blast?
Watch for neck blast risk from boot stage onwards, typically September in Bhandara's kharif calendar, especially after cloudy, drizzly spells. A preventive fungicide round at boot leaf and another at 50% heading gives the best protection. Booking both rounds together in the CropWings app locks a pilot for the follow-up date automatically.
