An agricultural drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle used in agriculture operations mostly in yield optimization and in monitoring crop growth and crop production. The aerial view provided by a drone can assists in the information of crop growth stages, crop health and soil variations in real time helping in any mitigation if required. Multi-spectral sensors can collect image in near-infrared as well as in visible spectrum of the electromagnetic spectrum.
There is a large capacity for growth in the area of agricultural drones. With technology constantly improving, imaging of the crops will need to improve as well. With the data that drones record from the crops the farmers are able to analyze their crops and make educated decisions on how to proceed given the accurate crop information. Software programs for analyzing and correcting crop production have the potential to grow in this market. Farmers will fly a drone over their crops, accurately identify an issue in a specific area, and take the necessary actions to correct the problem.This gives the farmer time to focus on the overall task of production instead of spending time surveying their crops. Additional uses include keeping track of livestock, surveying fences, and monitoring for plant pathogens.

▶ 2. China's DJI, the world's largest drone manufacturer, is actively expanding the market by launching agricultural drones based on its platform.
The agricultural drone, MG-1S ADVANCED, flies with 8 propellers and can spray 10ℓ of pesticide on 0.4ha to 0.6ha farmland for 10 minutes, so it has 40-60 times faster work capacity than manual work.
Developed a drone data-based thermal sensing solution jointly with DroneDeploy, a cloud software company, and launched an agricultural analysis solution jointly with PrecisionHawk.

▶ 4.XAG V40 Twin-rotor Agriculture Drone
XAG V40 agri-drone uses just two rotors for better performance
Usually when we think of multicopter drones, we picture aircraft with four or more rotors. The V40 agricultural drone takes a different approach, using two tilting two rotors in an effort to improve range and spraying efficiency.
Manufactured by Chinese company XAG, the modular V40 comes with a 16-liter (4.2-gal) liquid tank for herbicide/pesticide, a 25-liter (6.6-gal) granular container for seeds, and it has two folding arms - each of those arms has one rotor (a set of two rotor blades) on top, and a spray nozzle on the bottom.
