If these are the same drones I've seen previously, the germinated seed is inside a hard(ish) molded nutrient pod with a pointy end, and the drone fires it into the ground with a compressed air cannon. Which makes me very dubious about the '1 per second' rate of fire - even if it's possible, the weight of the gear + seed pods + gas is going to severely limit how many can be planted before needing to reload and recharge.

So realistically you could just throw these seeds from the air using a plane and it would be even more efficient? Modify some sort of sprayer to spray seeds over a large enough area. With enough seeds there should be sufficient trees to survive and grow.

I generally agree, it would seem easier to find a way to be able to "drop" a pod that could anchor itself, or not need to be burried... Something with barbs to hold it to the ground?

Well, I don't need to solve their problem for them, lol. I hope this works in some way, it's sounds neat in theory.

I mean why not use gunpowder?
