BENGALURU: India’s drone industry is the fastest growing industry in the world with the second highest in the number of start-ups in the agritech NSE -0.52 % sector, according to Kota Harinarayana, chairman of board of governors at IIT, Varanasi.
Harinarayana, who is credited with developing India’s first home-grown light combat aircraft, said the use of drones and robotics is becoming beneficial for even small farmers with two acres of land holdings as the technology helps in capturing images as close as one to two metres of the land where troubleshooting is required.
