Aaron shares why he jumped into spray drones—to solve chronic timing issues with airplanes and helicopters that left his customers hanging during critical fungicide windows. He details the painful transition from two unreliable Hylio 130s (crashes, software headaches, slow parts) to DJI T-50s, spraying 7,500 acres last season and finally hitting consistent productivity. They dive into real talk on building farmer trust, the grind of relationship-based sales, disease pressure (tar spot, vomit toxin), tight budgets, and why \"it depends\" is the agronomist’s favorite phrase. Aaron also drops wisdom for new operators: be willing to travel, grind hard, and understand that equipment is only half the battle—reliability and relationships win acres.","meta_description":"In episode 40 of the DroneOn Show, Mike sits down with Aaron Clark, an agronomist and ag retail pro with 10+ years selling seed, chemical, and fertilizer…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":3492,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-droneon-show-7309385/episodes/agronomist-switches-from-hylio-to-dji-7-500-acres-proven-results-the-droneon-show-ep-40/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-droneon-show-7309385/agronomist-switches-from-hylio-to-dji-7-500-acres-proven-results-the-droneon-show-ep-40.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
