The increasing adoption of precision agriculture practices is anticipated to drive the growth of the drone servicing or repair market in the coming years. Precision farming is an agricultural management approach that focuses on applying modern technologies throughout the farming process. These technologies enable the identification of variable zones within fields and support the effective management of field variability. Drones are playing an increasingly important role in precision agriculture, allowing farmers to adopt environmentally sustainable practices while protecting and enhancing profitability. For example, in January 2024, according to the United States Government Accountability Office (GAO), a US-based independent government oversight agency, 27% of US farms or ranches employed precision agriculture practices in 2023 to manage crops or livestock. As a result, the rising adoption of precision agriculture practices is fueling the growth of the drone servicing or repair market.
