Coromandel’s Gromor Drive crosses over 16k acres of Drone-led Spraying

Hyderabad, Mar 7 (UNI) Coromandel International Limited (CIL), India's leading agri-solutions provider in the business of fertilizers, crop protection chemicals, bioproducts, specialty nutrients, organic fertilizer, and retail, announced on Thursday its milestone of clocking 16,000+ acres of farmland covered through its Gromor Drive, an agri-drone spraying initiative in key southern states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
As a company that recognizes the transformative potential of drones in agriculture, the company launched its Gromor Drive in 2022 with a mission to provide cutting-edge drone spraying services to Indian farmers.

Since inception, the innovative service has covered farmlands across Andhra Pradesh (AP) and Telangana State (TS), serving as a game-changer for farmers by offering unparalleled precision spraying, cutting down on labor, time, and water usage, and enhancing crop yields, the company said in a release here.
Gromor Drive’s widespread adoption underscores its efficacy in addressing the unique needs of diverse crops such as paddy, tobacco, chilli, cotton, sugarcane, and pulses in their farming practices.
Announcing the milestone, Sankarasubramanian S, Executive Director, Nutrient Business, Coromandel International Limited, said, “Today, Gromor Drive has revolutionized the Indian agriculture landscape, and it gives us immense happiness to share that we have crossed 16,000+ acres of drone spraying in key southern states of AP and TS, making Coromandel the first fertilizer company to achieve such a significant milestone.".
“From reducing labor dependency to enhancing crop quality, Gromor Drive has emerged as a trusted ally for farmers striving for sustainable agricultural practices. We continue working towards extending Gromor Drive’s footprint across the country," he said.
"Our company is now also working towards the empowerment of rural women by providing agri-drone pilot training and drones to women from self-help groups (SHGs) under the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s initiative, Namo Drone Didi,” he added.
