On the scheduled day, the Droneskaki team was honoured to conduct a Drone Operation Training session with the Department of Agriculture Malaysia, Ayer Hitam. This training was organised to support the departmentβs initiative in adopting modern technology within the agricultural sector, particularly for crop monitoring, field analysis, and enhancing overall farm management efficiency.
The session began with a theoretical briefing on the development and potential of UAV technology in agriculture. Participants were introduced to how drones can assist in field mapping, crop health inspection, problem area detection, and the collection of accurate visual data. The Droneskaki team also emphasised the importance of safety SOPs, proper flight procedures, and operator responsibility when performing drone operations in open-field environments.
Following the theory session, the training continued with hands-on practical exercises. Participants were given the opportunity to operate drones directly, learning the basics of flight control, take-off and landing procedures, as well as how to capture data using specialised sensors and cameras for agricultural purposes. Our instructors guided each participant closely to ensure they gained a solid understanding of flight fundamentals and drone applications relevant to their daily tasks.
Throughout the session, participants demonstrated strong enthusiasm, actively engaging with questions and exploring various drone functions with great interest. This collaboration highlighted the readiness of the agricultural sector to embrace digital transformation to improve productivity and precision in field operations.
Droneskaki sincerely appreciates the trust given by the Department of Agriculture Malaysia, Ayer Hitam, to conduct this training. We hope that the knowledge and skills shared will be fully utilised and serve as a starting point for wider adoption of drone technology within the nationβs agricultural industry.
