In Varanasi’s Paniyara village, scientists from ICAR-IIVR showcased drone-based spraying systems that can uniformly disperse pesticides, zinc, and nutrients across farmland. These drones complete in minutes what traditionally takes hours, slashing labor costs while enhancing coverage accuracy.
This demonstration heralds an agricultural revolution—precision delivery reduces chemical usage, boosts productivity, and mitigates production expenses. With pests and diseases increasingly threatening yields, drones offer efficient, targeted spraying—signaling a promising future for India’s tech-driven farming.
