The application prospect of XAG’s agricultural drone in the US market was also discussed. As one of the world’s leading grain producers, the US has vast arable land covering 1.6 billion hectares and supplies food crops such as corn, soybeans, and wheat. But in recent years, farmers face the increasing challenge of rural aging, resource scarcity, and climate change. According to the US Department of Agriculture, the average age of farmers in 2023 was over 57, with those over 65 managing 40% of the nation’s farmland.

Now the use of agricultural drones has grown rapidly in the US, with many farmers showing interest in this technology. XAG’s agricultural drones have great potential in the US market, as they offer various functions that help reduce pesticide and fertilizer use, cut production costs, and improve farming efficiency.
