Bell County, Texas
Aerial application in Bell County, Texas
Bell County is home to Killeen and Temple, yet it also holds farmland and pasture on both sides of the escarpment, and aerial application is one way to cover that land.
We fly from locations in Bay City, Ballinger, Cameron and Brady, Texas.
Farmland beside the cities
Bell County is split by the Balcones Escarpment, with Blackland Prairie to the east and Grand Prairie rolling uplands to the west. The Leon, Lampasas and Salado rivers come together at Three Forks to form the Little River. Belton is the county seat, and Killeen is the largest city. The county had 370,647 residents at the 2020 Census.[1,2]
Farms and ranches in a county like this are often tracts of different sizes mixed in among subdivisions, highways and creeks. An aircraft can treat a field from above without crossing neighbors' property on the ground or churning up soft turnrows.
