Garuda Aerospace, a Made in India drone startup, has become the country's first company to receive a subsidy for making agri-drones, as a part of the government's efforts to promote the use of agricultural drones.
Under this, Garuda Kisan Drones were given to eight farmers at an event held in Pune.
DGCA-approved Garuda Kisan drones for farmers can manage and monitor crop health, and detect and identify areas that require water or fertilizer.
They can also be used to spray pesticides and fertilizers on crops, cutting down on manual labour and increasing efficiency.
The subsidy is just one of the many initiatives launched by the Indian government to support the development of India's drone industry and will benefit small-scale farmers, increase agricultural productivity, and reduce food waste.
The Agri Drone Subsidy is a scheme floated by the Department of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare through its Sub-Mission on Agricultural Mechanisation.
