Agricultural drones have great potential in environmental protection and economic benefits

 

 

At a government meeting on November 26, 2024, Kazakhstan officially launched a national exploration plan for agricultural drone technology. Officials attending the meeting discussed in depth the huge potential of agricultural drones in terms of environmental protection and economic benefits.

 

Examples have shown that agricultural drones can significantly reduce water consumption, lower CO2 emissions and provide more efficient access to hard-to-reach areas. Some experts claim that drones reduce water consumption by more than 15 times on the same area. In addition, drones can prevent 6% of crop losses caused by the tracks of wheeled sprayers, ensuring higher harvest yields.

 

To promote the adoption of drones, Kazakhstan's Ministry of Agriculture collaborated with Chinese companies to import 80 drones for pest management. In addition, the two parties also established a joint venture in the Alatau Special Economic Zone near Almaty to start localizing drone production.

 

 

Drone fertilization can be used in the planting of field crops such as corn

 

 

By adopting agricultural drones, Kazakhstan aims to modernize the agricultural sector and increase efficiency and sustainability while addressing the challenges of water conservation and crop protection, especially in corn cultivation. ‌Kazakhstan's corn cultivation is gradually moving towards modernization and focusing on international cooperation and technological innovation‌.

 

Farmers in Kazakhstan use high-tech methods such as drone fertilization in corn planting, which can improve operating efficiency and fertilization effects and promote the healthy growth of corn. Kazakhstan has large areas of fertile land and abundant agricultural resources. The government encourages innovation in agricultural technology, providing broad development space for corn cultivation. Despite problems such as poor production conditions and insufficient agricultural investment, Kazakhstan's corn cultivation industry still has great potential through international cooperation and technological innovation.

 

Modern drone fertilization is becoming more and more common, and Dora is also committed to developing some fertilizers suitable for drones. In particular, Dora's new seaweed fertilizer AlgaNeo  has high water solubility and is very suitable for drone fertilization. It only needs to be diluted 50-75 times. It has outstanding cold and drought resistance and is helpful for the growth of field crops such as corn.
