Central Indiana
Get a helicopter if you go air. They get right down and shave the crop beans or corn and do a much better job around trees and power lines. If you have a 50 ac field they will get 49.7 ac where a plane would get 45 of the 50. No fault of the operator just a difference in aircraft ability and speed. Plus the rotor wash really opens up the canopy and flushes chemical down into the lower leaf levels where diseases like to run rampant. Ground rigs though will give you better coverage for cheaper
