DJI is releasing a crop-spraying drone "40 times more efficient" than manual spraying in China and Korea. Although the drone will only be able to fly for 12 minutes at a time, it can carry up to 10kg of crop-spraying chemicals, and is a more affordable solution than the current option of using expensive crop-dusting aircraft. The drone, which was developed by DJI, has been tested on crops in South Korea and China, but it's not yet available outside those countries. The Chinese firm's latest model is a crop-spraying drone, which it claims is "40 times more efficient" than manual spraying, despite having just 12 minutes of flight time. According to Frank Wang, the Founder and CEO of DJI, "with this new product, we've shown that DJI can not only offer the ultimate aerial experience for the mass consumer, but also improve the efficiency of production and benefit so many others in all walks of life."
