DJI Agriculture’s work in 2022/23
Since its inception just over 10 years ago, DJI Agriculture has grown on six continents, covering more than 100 countries and regions. By the end of 2022, the global number of DJI agricultural drones has exceeded 200,000 units and the cumulative operating area has exceeded 200 million hectares, bringing the benefits of aerial technology to hundreds of millions of agricultural professionals. Through flight training, a total of 150,000 agricultural drone pilots and 2,500 teachers have been trained to promote more young entrepreneurs to join the cause of science and technology agriculture and provide talent support for the development of agriculture. smart farming.
Global political trends
As farmers around the world increasingly adopt agricultural drone technology, governments are beginning to see the many benefits this brings to the industry. There have been proposals to review the regulation in Europe, North America and Brazil. In China, DJI’s T16, T20, T10 and T30 agricultural drones have received CAAC airworthiness certification.
Agricultural drone tests
A series of extensive tests, including droplet size tests, drift tests, and herbicide tests, have been performed on the entire DJI Agras series of agricultural drones.
Drone Application Innovations
Drones have been used in a number of innovative ways, from pest and disease control in the Maldives to integrating with traditional grape growing techniques or even in smart farming, optimizing potato and rice yields. A large-scale potato farmer in Washington state saw an 80% reduction in insect damage by spot spraying a 60-hectare field. In Japan, a local rice farmer was able to save on fertilizer and increase his yield, earning him an additional US$5,425 per hectare. Some of the newer use cases include pollination, shaking off dead blossoms from fruit trees, and spraying fruit tree antifreeze and sunscreen.
Best Practices
There are extensive discussions around the world about establishing best practices for agricultural drones, including crew training, improving drone technology, pharmaceutical use specifications, standard operating procedures, and operating guidelines. safe.
DJI has established the DJI ACADEMY and conducted agricultural drone training in Thailand, Mexico, Brazil, and Turkey. New technologies such as the centrifugal nozzle, radar technology and new cameras have been developed to optimize agricultural production management in terms of intelligence, efficiency, effectiveness and safety.
DJI Agriculture not only manufactures drones, but also actively liaises with various chemical companies, universities, and professional institutions to jointly explore best practices.
