Experienced helicopter cherry and orchard drying services

Cherry & Orchard Drying Services Victoria

Cost Effective Helicopter Cherry Drying

At Helicraft, we have substantial experience and are qualified to provide orchard drying services, including crops such as cherries and kiwifruit across Victoria.

Our Orchard Drying service is proven to be a cost-effective and efficient method to remove excess water from crops after rainfall.

In the last 3 to four weeks before harvest time, crops like cherries and kiwifruit are at particular risk - if the water sits for an extended period, this can seep into the skin, causing the fruit to split, rot and go mouldy.

Operation & Benefits

To combat the impacts of rainfall, our helicopters will fly low and slow over the orchard, using rotor downwash to dry off the fruit and prevent water from being absorbed and causing damage. 

Our pilots are highly skilled, and are regularly called throughout this period to assist in ensuring that the crops are healthy, and unaffected by wet weather circumstances. Helicraft can deploy our experienced pilots at a moment’s notice as needed.
