Agri Drone Loan: In today’s modern era, techniques and machines have made farming many times convenient. Earlier there used to be a lot of difficulty in monitoring and spraying the fields, but now with the help of agricultural drones, this work can also be done in a few minutes. Through several schemes, the central government is making these agricultural drones available at a subsidy of 50 to 100%. Recently, a partnership has been announced between Ayotechworld Navigation and State Bank of India to provide loans to farmers at reasonable rates.
Loan will be available without any mortgage
Let us tell that the ‘Agribot Drone’ of Ayotechworld Aviation Company is the first drone in the country to receive DGCA ‘Type Certification’, which was certified by Union Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia in June, 2022.
In its statement, the drone manufacturer Iotechworld Aviation said that loans will be made available to the farmers on behalf of the government bank State Bank of India at affordable rates for the purchase of drones. Now, with the help of SBI, the customers of the company will get agricultural drones on loan at a cheaper rate of interest without any collateral.
Now drone will reach every farmer
According to media reports, a memorandum of understanding was signed between State Bank of India and Iotechworld Navigation Company for ‘Agribot Drone’ on 1 February. In this case, the co-founder of the aviation company Deepak Bhardwaj said that drones will prove to be a boon for the agriculture sector in India.
In this episode, the loan facility of SBI will also prove to be helpful for the farmers of economically weaker sections. These farmers were not able to buy drones due to financial constraints, but now it has become possible due to the loan facility of SBI.
Helpful in spraying insecticide-liquid fertilizer
Obviously, management like monitoring and spraying is required to protect large arable areas from pests and diseases and to identify nutrition. Till now work has been done in this work only by human labor, but chemical pesticides and fertilizers have a bad effect on the health of the workers.
Not only time and money are spent in this work, there is also a danger of loss of life and property by coming in contact with them. This is the reason why governments are now motivating farmers to adopt drone technology, so that timely monitoring and spraying can be done and the risk can also be reduced.
With the use of drones, the cost of farming will not only be reduced, time and labor will also be saved. Farmers are not able to buy drones in many states, there is a plan to ensure their availability through custom hiring centers.
