XAG
Fully autonomous agricultural drones for spraying, spreading and field mapping.
About
XAG is a Guangzhou-based agricultural technology company founded in 2007 that has built one of the largest portfolios of agricultural drone patents in the world over nearly two decades. Its P Series drones handle spraying, spreading, field mapping and logistics by swapping modular payloads in minutes; the latest P150 Max carries an 80-kilogram payload with an 80-liter smart liquid tank and centrifugal nozzles delivering up to 46 liters per minute, with adjustable droplet sizes from 60 to 500 microns. The company reports the P Series has flown over 9.3 million flight hours since 2022.
XAG's pitch is full autonomy rather than remote control: centimeter-level navigation plans missions from a mobile app while the drone avoids obstacles and varies application rates across terrain. The company also sells the R150 unmanned ground vehicle for spraying, transport and monitoring. Pricing is through regional dealers and is not published online. Caveat: acreage and flight-hour totals are vendor-reported; check local dealer support and drone-spraying pesticide rules in your country before planning a fleet, since regulations vary sharply.
What it can do
