Wings of Protection: Crop dusting, a vital agricultural practice since the 1920s, continues to safeguard crops from pests. In North Dakota, USA, a Transland Ag-2 N8330H and N8831H bravely take flight over flax fields near Mott, coating them with insecticide to shield against grasshopper infestations. This low-flying tradition, inspired by historic images of Seabrook Farm in New Jersey from the 1930s and iconic planes like the Huff-Daland Duster and Pacific Aerospace Cresco 750, ensures a bountiful harvest. #CropDusting #Agriculture #PestControl
