- Conceive drone pilots and plan the related research work
- Launch the drone spraying pilot, investigate the value proposition and scale up.
- Enhance drone spraying value proposition by identifying and developing unique drone features, eg: lead drone path planning software, integrate AI solutions for targeted spraying
- Partner with leading tech players to develop drone capabilities
- Conceive and launch the drone data capture and analytics projects based on the targeted use cases.
- Scale up the value proposition across different crops across India
- Leverage drone ecosystem to develop business models (buy, lease, etc.) for scaling up the solutions
- Develop and deliver frugalized drone solutions by partnering with internal / external vendors
- Liaise among precision agriculture group, farmers, technology partners, local support groups etc.
- Understand all stages of crop growth including nutritional requirements, typical insects, diseases, weeds and its relevance with drone-based solutions
- Scout the research farms to determine the geolocation of weed, insects, disease and nutrition issues as required
- Assess the outcomes of drone interventions on the farms
- Compile and document the field observations periodically
- Report out the findings and a summary report at end of the pilot
