The Chinese manufacturer now has 30 percent of the global market. Many see this as a safety risk. Today, 300,000 DJI agricultural drones are sold in China alone every year. The manufacturer has increased its business fifteenfold in five years. Its rapid growth has been helped by its ability to find its way to young farmers, who are increasingly facing labour shortages in China, just as they are in Western Europe and Japan.
Rotor Technologies, a leading innovator in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), has recently introduced a groundbreaking agricultural drone that is reshaping the landscape of precision farming. The Sprayhawk, as it is named, represents the pinnacle of agricultural UAV design, boasting an enormous 110-gallon (approximately 416.3 liters) capacity, positioning it as the largest agricultural drone available globally.
The agricultural sector is witnessing a transformative shift with the rapid evolution of spray drones. Following the well-received DJI Agras T10 and T30, DJI has introduced the T25 and T50 models, initially launched in China in 2022 and now available in the European market. These models have quickly gained popularity due to their enhanced features and capabilities.
