When it comes to agricultural spraying—whether using drones or conventional rigs—small details can make a big difference. Two products available through Aerial Applications Australia stand out for improving accuracy, consistency, and overall efficiency: the Green Dye Additive and the Anti-Foaming Agent.
Green Dye Additive (200g)
What it is: A green powder dye additive that mixes into your spray or tank solution. (View product)
Key benefits:
Visibility: Gives liquid in tanks (and spray lines) a clear, vivid green colour. This makes it easy to see tank levels under all light conditions.
Tracking & Residuals: Helps monitor what’s left in the tank quickly. It is useful during wash-down or decontamination processes, providing good visibility to contaminated areas.
Easy Cleanup: Washes out quickly—usually with the first flush—making maintenance straightforward.
Versatility: Suitable for water, fertilisers, chemical solutions, and both small or large tanks.

Anti-Foaming Agent
What it is: An additive designed to reduce or suppress foam when using wetters, surfactants, adjuvants, and similar products. (View product)
Key benefits:
Reduces Foam: Prevents problems like incorrect dosing, spillover, and inaccurate fills.
Broad Application: Works in a range of spraying setups including drones, ground rigs, and quick spray units.

How They Work Together
Using both products gives you more control and reliability in your spray operations:
The Anti-Foaming Agent keeps tank levels accurate by eliminating excess foam.
The Green Dye Additive makes the liquid highly visible, helping with safe handling and effective wash-downs.
Together, they reduce waste, improve safety, and streamline both drone and ground-based spraying.
Benefits of Enhanced Agricultural Spraying
Improved Efficiency
In agricultural spraying, efficiency is key. The combination of the Green Dye Additive and the Anti-Foaming Agent ensures that you can monitor your tank levels accurately. This means less time spent on adjustments and more time focusing on the task at hand.
Enhanced Safety
Safety is paramount in any agricultural operation. The visibility provided by the Green Dye Additive helps operators identify potential hazards quickly. This is especially important during wash-downs, where contaminated areas need to be addressed promptly.
Cost-Effectiveness
Investing in these additives can lead to significant cost savings. By reducing waste and improving accuracy, you can ensure that every drop of your spray solution is used effectively. This not only saves money but also contributes to more sustainable farming practices.
Versatility Across Applications
Whether you are using drones or ground rigs, these products are designed to work seamlessly in various applications. This versatility makes them ideal for any agricultural operation, regardless of size or complexity.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the Green Dye Additive and Anti-Foaming Agent are essential tools for anyone involved in agricultural spraying. They enhance visibility, improve safety, and streamline operations. If you want to take your agricultural spraying to the next level, consider integrating these products into your routine.
