AG-16 Precision Seeding Drone

Overview

The AG-16 is built for rice and maize growers who need consistent plant population without the waste of a broadcast spreader. Its 16 L hopper meters seed through a calibrated auger that holds the rate within 5 percent across the full 5 m swath, and the RTK row-spacing module keeps every pass on the commanded line so stand counts stay uniform over the whole block. Working efficiency reaches 180 mu per hour at 5 m/s, where 1 mu equals approximately 666.7 m², so a 30 mu plot is seeded in about 10 minutes of flight time. The 41 kg airframe keeps the aircraft inside the agricultural UAV weight class that most regulators allow without a special permit, and the 20 minute endurance covers roughly 60 mu per battery pair. The sealed hopper and metering system rinse down easily between rice and maize, so a single airframe can carry a full season across both crops.
