Description

The State of Indiana’s Department of Natural Resources is seeking a qualified vendor to provide spray‑drone services for the treatment of invasive species and undesirable vegetation on hard‑to‑access forested properties.

Budget estimate

$50,000 – $200,000

Based on similar state‑level aerial‑application contracts, a multi‑site drone spraying project typically ranges from $50,000 for a limited, short‑term engagement to $200,000 for a larger, multi‑year effort covering extensive acreage. Factors influencing the final amount include the total acreage, frequency of treatments, drone equipment rental versus purchase, and any required environmental reporting.
