According to the DJI Agriculture Drone Insight Report 2022/23, governments and farmers worldwide are adopting agricultural drones to raise output in a more scientific, sustainable and eco-friendly way. As an authorized DJI Agriculture dealer in Vietnam, 115Drone summarizes the key trends and what they mean for the domestic market.
Adoption is scaling fast
By the end of 2022: over 200,000 DJI Agriculture drones across 100+ countries, a cumulative operating area exceeding 200 million hectares, and around 150,000 pilots plus 2,500 instructors trained. The industry is maturing quickly.
Policy is gradually opening up
Many regions have proposed revising rules to enable ag drones (Europe, North America, Brazil). In Vietnam, operation follows Decree 288, which requires pilot training — see pilot training courses.
Increasingly creative applications
From pest and disease control and sowing to pollination and anti-frost spraying for fruit trees. The report cites a potato farm cutting insect damage by up to 80% with spot spraying, and a rice grower significantly raising income by saving fertilizer and lifting yield.
Southeast Asia & rice
Southeast Asia, where rice is a staple, is a fast-growing region: drones suit sowing and protecting rice across the whole season — exactly Vietnam's Mekong Delta context.
What it means for Vietnam
The global trend reinforces Vietnam's direction: mechanizing with drones to raise yields, save inputs and move toward sustainable food security. For the quantified benefits, see the ag drone industry report; learn more about SmartFarm & NDVI.
