Crop dusting drones are a much more precise tool for spraying crops. They’ve been used in Japan for years for exactly the reasons you complain about from traditional methods. Think fine tipped paintbrush vs roller or spray gun.

Combining multi-spectral cameras, secret sauce software and tightly controlled sprayers allows farmers to use much less pesticide and fertilizer. A survey flight is done, problem areas are identified and then the right mix is applied to the area. And it is far safer than using manned aircraft.
