The agricultural sector in India has always been a crucial aspect of the economy, and advancements in technology, makes it possible to improve its efficiency & productivity. One such development is the use of drones in agriculture, and Garuda Aerospace is the first Indian company to receive a subsidy for Agri-drones.
The subsidy, which is provided by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, aims to encourage the use of drone technology in agriculture to improve the yield & quality of crops. With this subsidy, Garuda Aerospace will be able to provide Agri-drones at a lower cost, making the drones accessible for farmers across the country.
Agri Drones – A much needed relief
Using drones in agriculture has several advantages, including reducing the time and effort required for crop monitoring and analysis. It also helps in identifying problem areas in the fields and taking necessary measures to improve crop yield. Drones equipped with high-resolution cameras and sensors can capture data on crop health, soil moisture, and weather conditions, which can then be analyzed to provide farmers with valuable insights.
Garuda Aerospace is a leading player in the drone industry and has already made significant strides in the agriculture sector. The company has developed a range of Agri-drones that are specifically designed for crop monitoring and analysis. These drones can cover large areas of land quickly and accurately, providing farmers with real-time information on crop health and other important parameters.
With the subsidy from the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Garuda Aerospace is set to expand its reach and provide its Agri-drones to farmers across the country. This move is expected to revolutionize the agriculture sector in India and help farmers improve their productivity and income.
Garuda Aerospace’s achievement of becoming the first Indian company to avail of the Agri-drone subsidy is a remarkable feat and sets the tone for further innovation and growth in this sector. With the use of Agri drones, farmers in India can look forward to a more efficient, profitable, and sustainable future.
Agnishwar Jayaprakash, Founder and CEO of Garuda Aerospace, was quoted saying that this subsidy will be a game changer to the agricultural sector in India and will have much wider reach to the farmers. He said that drones in agriculture in India are still in its early stages and the vision of the company is to transform and promote the use of drone technology in the agriculture sector.
