Marut AG 365 Kisan Agricultural Drones

Marut Drones is an Indian drone manufacturer based in Hyderabad, Telangana, that describes itself as India's first multi-utility drone maker. It builds drones for crop spraying, seeding, cleaning, logistics, surveillance and training, and reports more than 1,800 drones deployed across India, five DGCA-certified platforms and eight granted patents.

Its Kisan drone range, sold under the AG 365 name, targets smallholder spraying and fertilizer application. Models such as the AG 365, AG 365H, AG 365S, AG 365XP and AG 365I carry 10 to 11 L tanks, fly 16 to 30-plus minutes and cover 20 to 30-plus acres per day, with terrain and obstacle sensors on several models and a granular spreader option. A companion mobile app monitors drone health and usage, and the company sells through dealers, runs the Marut Drone Academy and helps buyers with subsidy paperwork.

• AG 365 family: 10–11 L tanks with 0–5 L/min spray flow and up to 15 m/s speed.
• Extended endurance: AG 365I and AG 365XP fly 30-plus minutes on 30,000 mAh batteries.
• Terrain and obstacle sensors: built into the AG 365, AG 365H and AG 365S models.
• Granular spreading: AG 365I carries a 9 kg granular spreader.
• Mobile app: drone health monitoring and usage analytics for operators.
• Upcoming large models: AG365 30L, 50L and a hybrid version with 90-minute flight time.

• Rice and vegetable cooperatives with small plots offering low-cost drone spraying services to members.
• Fertilizer distributors bundling granular drone application with product sales.
• Vocational schools and extension centres using training drones and academy curricula to certify local pilots.

• Compact 10–11 L sprayers sized for smallholder plots, covering 20 to 30-plus acres per day.
• DGCA-certified platforms that qualify for Indian central and state drone subsidy schemes.
• Granular spreader option lets one drone handle both spraying and fertilizer broadcasting.
• Dealer network, training academy and app-based health monitoring support fleet uptime.

India is pushing drone adoption in agriculture through subsidies and women-led drone service programmes, building a large base of small-tank sprayers for fragmented farms. Smallholder rice and vegetable systems in Southeast Asia share the same plot structure and labour shortages, making affordable, certified compact sprayers relevant beyond India.
