Aerial application, referred to by many as crop dusting, involves spraying crops with fertilizers, pesticides, and fungicides from an agricultural aircraft. The specific spreading of fertilizer is also known as aerial topdressing.

Crop dusting is spilling pesticides over crop fields from an airplane to cover an enormous area all at one time.

It covers the crop with pesticides to kill the bugs. It's the stuff you really don't want to eat, however we don't have a choice in the matter.

distributes pesticide so the fresh vegetables you buy in the grocery store don't have bug bites
this is why you should wash your stuff really, really well....we don't want to eat pesticides.
it also inspired a Joan Mitchell song, that The Counting Crowes re-made called "Big Yellow Taxi"
