What the FPA drone spray operator licence means

If someone sprays pesticide on your farm for a fee, FPA rules apply to them.

FPA MC 2024-25 covers drone controllers, operators and service providers who spray pesticides. FPA’s licence application lists the drone controllers and a drone spray supervisor with their ID numbers.

Ask your provider

  • Your FPA licence number and expiry date.
  • The controller’s and supervisor’s FPA IDs.
  • CAAP registration of the drone.
