Jyoti Global Plast has introduced the AeroCrop Agricultural UAS, an advanced precision-farming drone engineered to deliver high-efficiency, uniform, and safe crop-spraying operations. Leveraging over 40 years of expertise in plastic and FRP moulding, the company is rapidly expanding its presence in India’s UAV sector, with AeroCrop positioned as a flagship solution designed to tackle widespread on-ground challenges faced by farmers and agri-service providers.
Purpose-built for rugged field conditions, AeroCrop is designed to optimise spraying accuracy while reducing input costs and labour dependence. The drone supports up to 29 minutes of flight time without a payload and 22 minutes with a payload, operating at a maximum take-off weight of 27.5 kg. Its 10-litre spraying tank, coupled with a dual nozzle system comprising flat jet and centrifugal nozzles, ensures consistent droplet size, precise application, and minimal chemical drift. With an ability to cover one acre in just five to eight minutes, AeroCrop enables farmers to spray up to 30 acres per day—significantly improving operational productivity and reducing chemical wastage.
A defining feature of the AeroCrop drone is its intelligent radar-based navigation and terrain-adaptive flight system. This technology helps the drone maintain a steady flight height, automatically adjusts to land contours, avoids obstacles in real time, and executes fully autonomous spraying missions. These capabilities improve accuracy, enhance safety, and lower the learning curve for farmers transitioning from manual or semi-mechanised spraying to next-generation UAV-based operations. By reducing physical exposure to chemicals and minimising labour-intensive fieldwork, the drone also directly supports healthier and safer working conditions.
Deven Shah, Whole Time Director & CEO of Jyoti Global Plast, said the AeroCrop embodies the company’s commitment to delivering practical, dependable engineering solutions that can be readily adopted by farmers. “Our objective is to simplify precision spraying while ensuring reliability and operational stability,” he noted, adding that the drone has been engineered to balance performance with affordability for widespread rural adoption.
The launch of AeroCrop follows a series of strategic advancements by Jyoti Global Plast into unmanned systems. Earlier this year, the company rolled out a surveillance drone equipped with thermal and visual imaging capabilities, followed by an industrial cleaning drone designed for high-pressure cleaning of facades and large solar installations—a solution that has already secured its first commercial deployment with a solar EPC company.
With the introduction of AeroCrop, Jyoti Global Plast further consolidates its position within India’s rapidly expanding UAV ecosystem, aiming to deliver robust, efficient, and cost-effective drone solutions across agriculture, surveillance, industrial cleaning, and infrastructure maintenance.
