CSR: IIL Foundation and General Aeronautics Join Hands to Empower Farmers with Drone Spray Technology
Share Share Share Share

NEW DELHI (India CSR): In a landmark initiative for modern agriculture, Insecticides (India) Limited (IIL), a leading name in the agrochemical industry, has partnered with General Aeronautics to introduce farmers to drone spray technology. Through its CSR arm, IIL Foundation, the program is bringing live demonstrations and training sessions directly to farmers’ fields. Starting in Haryana, the project aims to cover over 5,000 acres across multiple villages and train over 10,000 farmers in precision farming techniques.

Transforming Agriculture with Drone Technology

The Need for Innovation

Traditional spraying methods often result in uneven application, chemical wastage, and environmental risks. Labour shortages and inefficiencies in conventional techniques exacerbate the challenges for farmers. Drone spray technology offers a modern solution, addressing these issues with precision and efficiency. Equipped with AI-driven sensors, drones ensure targeted application, conserve resources, and minimize environmental harm.

A Game-Changer in Indian Agriculture

Drones are quickly becoming integral to smart farming in India, supported by government initiatives promoting precision agriculture. The shift towards these technologies represents a paradigm change, enabling farmers to achieve better yields and sustainable farming practices.

“Efficient spraying is crucial for healthy crops and better yields. Drone technology ensures precise application, saving resources while protecting the environment,” said Rajesh Aggarwal, Managing Director of Insecticides (India) Limited.

Hands-On Training for Farmers

Live Demonstrations Across Haryana

The collaboration began in Haryana, offering farmers hands-on experience with drone technology. Demonstrations are being conducted across 5,000 acres, showcasing the benefits of this advanced farming tool. Farmers are learning how drones can improve crop protection by reducing water consumption, minimizing chemical usage, and ensuring uniform spraying.

“By taking the technology directly to the fields, we’re enabling farmers to see the benefits of precision agriculture in action,” shared Dushyant Sood, Chief Marketing Officer, IIL.

Nationwide Expansion Plans

Building on the success of the Haryana program, IIL Foundation plans to extend the initiative to other states. The long-term vision includes training farmers nationwide, fostering a culture of sustainable and innovative farming practices.

Key Benefits of Drone Technology in Farming

Precision and Efficiency

Drones equipped with advanced analytics and sensors ensure accurate application of crop protection products. This precision minimizes wastage, reduces environmental risks, and enhances the health of crops.

Addressing Labour Shortages

By automating spraying tasks, drones mitigate the challenges posed by labour shortages, enabling farmers to maintain productivity.

Promoting Sustainability

Drone technology aligns with eco-friendly farming practices by reducing chemical runoff and conserving water. This approach supports a more sustainable agricultural ecosystem.

Voices of Change

A Vision for the Future

The initiative reflects IIL Foundation’s commitment to equipping farmers with the tools and knowledge needed for modern agriculture.

“This program is not just about technology; it’s about empowering farmers to embrace change and adopt sustainable farming practices that benefit the entire community,” said Rajesh Aggarwal.

Farmers Embracing Innovation

Farmers who have participated in the training sessions are optimistic about the future. Many have expressed enthusiasm for integrating drones into their daily farming activities, recognizing the potential for increased efficiency and profitability.
