ABSTRACT
The paper presents the results of research on the influence of the air stream produced by produced by the drone on the transverse distribution pattern of the rye seeds. The seeds were spread by a small electric seeder with capacity of 2.7 dm3 with a spreading disc. The distribution of seeds on a groove patternator was analyzed. The height of the sowing disc position above the patternator surface was 0.5 and 1.0 meter. The influence of the air stream from the drone rotors on the change of transverse distribution pattern of the seeds falling into the table grooves was confirmed.
