Dangers of Crop DustingĬrop dusting is a dangerous job for pilots.ĭespite increased safety standards and technological progress, it remains a dangerous activity, as pilots fly extremely low while crop dusting, which means collisions and stalling can occur.Īnother safety concern is from the environmental perspective.

How Often Crop Dusters SprayĬrop dusters spray the same field every 25 to 30 days for most crops. The highest any crop duster aircraft has flown is around 24,000 feet.

Most crop dusters fly between 10 and 15 feet above their target. So there is a concern that crop dusters could negatively impact the environment and human safety. Most crop duster planes are small single-engine planes that fly low over the ground to spray the chemicals and fly between 10 and 15 feet above the ground when spraying.įlying so close to the ground means being a crop duster pilot is a relatively dangerous profession.Ĭrop dusting is also considered dangerous because some of the sprayed chemicals could potentially be inhaled by people nearby, with most chemicals in pesticides and insecticides being dangerous for human health.
