Drone-based agricultural technology is a rapidly growing field in Bangladesh. Drones can be used for a variety of tasks in agriculture, including crop scouting, land surveying, soil sampling, pest and disease control, and irrigation management. The use of drone-based agricultural technology has the potential to significantly improve crop yields, reduce costs, and protect the environment.

The Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI) has been using drones to survey crops for pests and diseases since 2019. The drones have been able to identify and map areas of infection, which has helped BARI to target its control efforts more effectively. In 2020, the company Kisan Drones began offering drone-based crop spraying services to farmers in Bangladesh. The drones are able to spray pesticides and fertilizers on crops more quickly and efficiently than traditional methods, and they can also reach areas that are difficult to access by ground. In 2021, the government of Bangladesh announced a plan to invest $100 million in drone-based agricultural technology over the next five years. The goal of the plan is to help farmers to increase crop yields and reduce costs.
