  2. Licensing: Do you understand the licensing requirements to legally operate a drone and apply pesticides in your region?
  3. Insurance: Do you have the right insurance in place for your drone business, with suitable coverage and limits?
  4. Training: Are you up to date on the hands-on operation of your drone for the crops and conditions you’ll be facing? 
  5. Software: Were you wondering about specialized software available to streamline your service delivery and make your operations more efficient?
  6. Support: Who will you contact for drone support and warranty details if necessary?
  7. Maintenance: Are you familiar with the critical parts and maintenance support process to keep your drone efficient and operational when it really needs to be? 
  8. Compliance: How will you stay informed on flight operations and regulatory compliance, and what records are essential to maintain?
  9. Data and Maps: Are you aware of the available data and maps to deliver valuable insights for your customers and growers?
  10. Emergency Preparedness: What's your plan if your drone malfunctions during the season, and is there a drone loaning program or financing available for business growth?
