Under Malaysian rules, pesticides carried on an agricultural drone must be registered with the Pesticides Board (Lembaga Racun Makhluk Perosak) and recommended for UAS use, according to the Department of Agriculture’s list of permitted payloads. We plan around that, and will ask to see the product before quoting.

Flight height, speed and nozzle choice are set per crop. Durian trees usually need slower passes and a closer look at drift because orchards often sit beside kampung houses.
