When I was a property owner, I rented rooms to tree planters; Like the Hoedads, but some other group.

They were good housemates because they were very quiet when they came home (with their pants and gloves ripped to shreds). They were hard working people.
Today they just shoot tree bomblets from drones. https://www.fastcompany.com/3060331/...s-from-the-air

The drones have a flight time of about 30 minutes and can cover an acre in 1.5 hours, Kozak says. They fire out seed pods–containing a mix of “fertilizers, hydro-gels and pest deterrents”–at 350 feet per second (for comparison, paintballs travel at about 250 feet per second). The capsules nestle three or four inches into the ground. In addition, the drones can also spray herbicide to kill invasive species that harm tree growth, and they can measure tree diameters when the saplings are established.
