In 2021, a precision solution with variable input rates successfully increased the yield of an experimental cotton field, covering an area of 330 hectares, owned by the agricultural cooperative Xufeng, by 10%, reaching 9.15 kg/ha.
Boost Yield on a Large Scale
In the Southern Jiangxi Province of China, Mr Liu Yanghai previously needed to hire ten workers for two days to spray 150 mu (24.7 acres) of orchard. Now, he can finish spraying within 3.5 hours by using DJI T40 and the 3D routes for fruit trees.

In 2022, the variable fertilization solution for rice enabled rice producers in Japan to reduce the amount of chemical fertilizer by 11% while increasing production by 9%. The solution solved various problems, such as excessive fertilization in particular areas, delayed maturity, and lodging.
Increase Yield with Less Fertilizer
Released by DJI Agriculture’s partner in Hungary, PlantaDrone used Multispectral Drone to monitor farmland before and after sowing, separated the emergence locations of Cirsium arvense based on NDVI, and generated a precision spraying prescription map. The map was then uploaded to the drone for spraying. This way, the drone successfully conducted precision weeding, which reduced both herbicide use and costs.
