How DJI Drones Are Transforming Agriculture in 2025

By DJI Gear Portal — Affiliate Blog

🌾 Introduction

Across the globe, farmers are turning to technology to solve old challenges — labour shortages, unpredictable weather, and the need to produce more with less. Drones, once tools for hobbyists and filmmakers, are now reshaping modern agriculture.

DJI, the world’s leading drone manufacturer, has become a major player in this field through its Agriculture division, whose slogan “Better Growth, Better Life” captures how precision aerial technology is improving yields and sustainability. According to KrASIA (2022), DJI has sold more than 200,000 agricultural drones worldwide, making it the most widely adopted drone brand in farming.

🚜 Why Farmers Are Turning to Drones

This precision saves both time and resources, while promoting sustainability by reducing chemical overuse and runoff.

🌱 Real-World Impact

In a Guardian (2025) feature, a UK farm described how using the DJI Agras T50 to spray fertilizer reduced manual labour and increased coverage by more than 300%. Farmers reported stronger crop health and improved efficiency — proof that agri-tech is transforming daily farm work.

🛰️ Data-Driven Agriculture

When paired with DJI’s Mavic 3 Multispectral, farmers can capture NDVI maps, detect irrigation issues, and plan fertilizer applications with pinpoint precision. Combining aerial data with automated spraying creates a complete precision-farming ecosystem.

🌍 Getting Started with Agricultural Drones

  1. Choose the right model (T10 for small plots, T50 for large-scale farms).
  2. Get certified — most countries require a remote pilot licence for spraying.
  3. Start with mapping missions before full spraying operations.
  4. Join DJI’s agriculture dealer network for training and support.
