Drone Pilot Training & Manufacturing - DaaS at MARS Droneport - Drone as a Service in Punjab

Empowering Farmers through Shared Agri-Drone Ownership at MARS Droneport, Punjab In the fast-changing landscape of agriculture, technology is paving the way for more efficient and profitable practice

 What’s the Challenge?


Buying a professional agricultural drone for crop spraying or mapping can cost ₹4–10 lakhs or more. For a single farmer or a small landholder, this investment may seem out of reach. Even if bought, maintenance, software updates, and technical training are added burdens.


✅ The MARS Droneport Solution: Collaborative Ownership + DaaS


At MARS Droneport, we encourage small groups of farmers, local youth, or agri-entrepreneurs to collectively invest in a drone. Instead of one person bearing the entire cost, a group of 3–5 people can pool their resources to purchase an agri-drone.


Then, using the DaaS model, they can operate a drone spraying service in nearby villages and fields—offering crop spraying, field monitoring, and pest control services at affordable prices.
