Agricultural Pilot careers
They play a crucial role in modern farming by ensuring efficient and even distribution of chemicals across large agricultural areas. These pilots must have advanced flying skills, particularly at low altitudes, and a strong understanding of agricultural chemicals, weather conditions, and safety protocols.
The job requires a commercial pilot licence, additional endorsements for low-level flying, and often specific training in agricultural operations. Agricultural Pilots typically work seasonally and may be employed by large farms, agribusiness companies, or aerial spraying contractors.
