Exciting New Australian Farming Drone Releases From DJI || August 2021
Posted by Katelyn Broom on
There have been some fantastic advances in technological resources this past year, especially within the agricultural sector. We are seeing more and more drones and other tech innovations helping farmers all across the country to track data, become more efficient and save costs in all manner of processes. In today’s article we’re going to be chatting about some exciting new farm drone releases from DJI that were announced just a few weeks ago in August 2021.
Who is DJI?
DJI is a leading innovator in drones and aerial imaging technology. They work closely as a business with CR Kennedy & Co, our leading drone importer here in Australia, to design, create and provide us with drones for many purposes, including drones that are specially made for farming purposes. The two drones they’ve recently introduced to the Australian market are the DJI Agras T10 and T30.
What are the new farming drone releases?
The DJI Agras T10 and T30 are next-generation aircraft that have been built specifically to assist farmers in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of their spraying operations. They are both quite capable of carrying out much the same work, albeit in a slightly smaller capacity for the T10.
How can the DJI Agras T10 and T30 help Australian farmers?
Here are the main points you need to know about these two newly released DJI farming drone models:
DJI Agras T10
- Highly compact and powerful
- Lightweight and convenient
- 8L spray tank and up to 5m spray width
- Carbon fibre composite body is highly durable
- Able to be folded down by 70% for easy transport
- Efficient refilling process
- 4 nozzle system that outputs up to 2.4L per minute
- Dual-channel solenoid flowmeter for even spraying and precise volume control
- Spherical radar system for perceiving obstacles in a range of conditions with adaptive flight and automatic obstacle avoidance
- Dual FPV cameras with front and rear views
- Searchlight and night vision capabilities for night time operations
- Stable image transmission from 5km away (a 67% boost on the previous generation)
- Stronger signalling, anti-interference and operational stability
- Easy user experience
All in all, the DJI Agras T10 is the perfect drone for smaller scale spraying operations.
DJI Agras T30
- Highly efficient and effective spraying solution
- Helps reduce fertiliser use and increase yield
- 30L spray tank and up to 7m spray width
- 16 spray nozzles for extensive coverage and even distribution
- Exceptional drift prevention and strong penetration
- Spherical radar system for perceiving obstacles in a range of conditions with adaptive flight and automatic obstacle avoidance
- Dual FPV cameras with front and rear views
- Searchlight and night vision capabilities for night time operations
- Able to be folded down by 80% for easy transport
- Fully enclosed structure to boost durability
- Critical components are lined with 3 layers of protection to reduce damage from dust, corrosion and pesticides/fertilisers
- Stable image transmission from 5km away (a 67% boost on the previous generation)
- Intelligent battery covered by warranty for 1,000 charges and 4,942 acres of flight significantly reduces operating costs
- Easy user experience
The DJI Agras T30 really is an all-rounder when it comes to spraying technologies. For large scale operations, this is definitely a drone you want to have at your disposal.
Both of these spray drones can be easily and remotely controlled and connect to other DJI ag tech innovations via Internet of Things (IoT) technology. This has been set up to help you map out an overview of your farm and use the critical data collected to improve operations, saving time and money in the process.
