Vietnam's Farmers Put Into Service XAG Agricultural Drone

Vietnamese farmers employ the innovative and fully autonomous agricultural drone dubbed as XAG P100.

According to farmers at Vietnam's Bac Ninh Province,  it would normally take 20 to 25 men to spray pesticides to a 70 hectare rice paddies but unluckily there would be an uneven results and wastes of more pesticides.

However, upon the utilization of XAG P100 it would just take 4 to 6 people to get the job done. In brief, the XAG P100 prides itself an efficient spreading, precision spraying, fully autonomous, detachable design, safe and reliable design.
