Agrotech, Strategic Collaboration for New Generation Drones: Entering a $150 Billion Market

Agrotech has entered into a strategic collaboration with China-based Joyance Technology and UAE-based GridStudio AI to develop and present AI-powered new generation drone technologies to global markets.

Taking an ambitious step on a global scale in AI-powered new generation drone technologies, Agrotech signed a strategic cooperation agreement with China-based Joyance Technology and United Arab Emirates-based GridStudio AI. In the statement made by the company to the Public Disclosure Platform (KAP), it was reported that the agreement covers the development, production, and presentation of drone technologies to international markets.

Within the scope of the agreement, four different drone models with payload capacities of 20 kg, 30 kg, 40 kg, and 50 kg will be developed and launched simultaneously. According to the division of labor, hardware design and production processes will be carried out by Joyance Technology, while the artificial intelligence and software infrastructure of the drones will be provided by GridStudio AI. Thanks to this structure, the aim is to create an integrated product family offering advanced solutions in terms of both hardware and software.

To Be Used in Agriculture, Energy, and Emergencies The usage areas of new generation drone models are kept quite broad. The systems, planned to be active primarily in agricultural technologies, disaster management, energy, and industrial applications, are foreseen to support processes such as spraying, fertilizing, seeding, plant health analysis, and yield tracking in agricultural activities.

In disaster and emergency scenarios, thermal imaging-supported early detection, wide-area scanning, and intervention support tasks come to the fore. In energy and industrial fields, they are planned to be used in challenging tasks such as the cleaning of solar power plants and maintenance and control operations of high structures. The drones to be developed will be designed to be configurable with modular equipment according to the mission type. Additionally, it was stated that multi-drone operations and simultaneous mission management will be possible via a central command control system. This approach aims to significantly increase speed and efficiency while reducing operational costs.

5 Countries Targeted in the First Phase On the marketing and sales side, the plan is to establish a sales and dealership network initially focusing on Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Oman. Following this process, the goal is to start export activities to the Africa, Europe, and Central Asia markets. Emphasizing that the market for AI-powered smart drone technologies is expected to reach a size of over 150 billion USD within the next 5 years, it was announced that Agrotech aims to reach a total production and sales volume of 2,000 drones in the first 18 months in this market.
