Selection guide

Which Agricultural Drone Fits Your Operation?

The right agricultural UAV depends on the mission, payload and operating environment—not simply aircraft size.

20 kg Class

Small & Flexible Operations

Suitable for:

  • Smaller fields
  • Flexible deployment
  • Lower payload requirements
  • Frequent field transitions
Recommended: XJ-A20
30 kg Class

Medium-Capacity Field Operations

Suitable for:

  • Larger field areas
  • Higher liquid capacity
  • Spraying and fertilization
  • Longer operating cycles
Recommended: XJ-A30
50 L Class

High-Capacity Spraying & Spreading

Suitable for:

  • Large-scale operations
  • Higher daily workload
  • Spraying + granular spreading
  • Professional agricultural operations
Recommended: HV50

Published payload, tank and endurance values come from the supplied product materials. Actual performance varies with configuration, payload, route, weather, battery condition and operating practice.

Buying criteria

What to Consider When Choosing an Agricultural Drone

Payload & Tank Capacity

Match payload and tank capacity to field size and required application volume.

Spraying & Spreading Capability

Determine whether the operation requires liquid spraying, granular spreading or both.

Route Planning

Automated route generation can reduce repetitive manual flight operations.

Operating Efficiency

Evaluate coverage requirements, refill frequency and expected daily workload.

Training & Ease of Use

Consider the experience level of operators and the required training process.

Purchase & Operating Cost

Compare aircraft configuration, payload systems, batteries, accessories and long-term operating requirements.

Visit the FAQ page
What is an agricultural drone?

An agricultural drone is a UAV configured for farming operations such as crop spraying, fertilizer or seed spreading, crop monitoring and field mapping. Different agricultural drones use different payload systems depending on whether the mission involves applying material or collecting field data.

What are agricultural drones used for?

Agricultural drones can support crop spraying, granular fertilizer and seed spreading, crop monitoring, field mapping and other farm operations. The appropriate UAV configuration depends on the crop, field size, payload, application rate and operating environment. See more practical examples in Uses of Drones in Agriculture.

What is the difference between a spraying drone and a fertilizer spreading drone?

A spraying drone carries liquid in a tank and applies it through pumps and nozzles, while a fertilizer spreading drone uses a hopper, metering mechanism and spreading system for compatible granular materials. Some agricultural UAV platforms can support both configurations by changing the payload system.

Which agricultural drone is suitable for large farms?

The appropriate platform depends on field size, crop layout, application rate, refill distance and daily workload. AeroSightX currently offers 20 L, 30 L and 50 L agricultural platforms, with the HV50 providing the highest spray-tank capacity in the current range for higher-capacity field operations.

Can one agricultural drone perform both spraying and fertilizer spreading?

Yes. Some agricultural drone platforms can be configured for both liquid spraying and granular spreading by changing the application system. For example, the AeroSightX HV50 supports a 50 L spray tank and an 80 L spreading hopper for different agricultural operations.

How much does an agricultural drone cost?

Agricultural drone prices vary according to payload capacity, spray or spreading system, battery configuration, positioning and sensing equipment, accessories, customization and order quantity. Buyers should compare the complete operating configuration rather than aircraft price alone.
