The Government is considering the use of drone technology in the agricultural industry to develop and make the field more efficient.

Accordingly, a special discussion regarding the use of drone technology in agriculture took place recently at the Natural Resources Management Centre in Kandy under the chairmanship of Minister of Science, Technology, Research, Skills Development, Vocational Training and Kandyan Heritage Dr. Sarath Amunugama.

In many developed countries, drone technology is extensively used in agriculture and through this technology, much expenditure is saved.

Officers of the Department of Agriculture and the National Science Foundation also attended the meeting.
