Varuna
Introducing Varuna, a next-generation agricultural drone designed to revolutionize the way we protect and nourish crops. Built for precision, sustainability, and efficiency, Varuna represents the future of smart farming—where technology meets productivity in perfect harmony.
Equipped with a high-capacity spray tank and advanced flight autonomy, Varuna delivers unmatched performance across every type of farmland. Its GNSS-based navigation system and terrain-aware flight control ensure stable, uniform spraying even over uneven landscapes or sloped terrains. From vast commercial fields to challenging topographies, Varuna adapts seamlessly, ensuring consistent coverage with minimal chemical drift.
Varuna isn’t just a drone—it’s a complete aerial spraying solution. Designed for multi-purpose agricultural applications, it handles herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers, and foliar nutrients with remarkable accuracy. The intelligent Smart Spray-Control System activates only when the drone reaches designated crop zones and automatically pauses during turns or idle paths. This level of automation prevents waste, enhances safety, and optimizes every drop of input material, saving time and cost while protecting the environment.
Key Highlights
Description
Every aspect of Varuna’s engineering—from aerodynamic design to payload distribution—is crafted for long-duration performance and reliability. With a high-volume spraying capacity and automated control algorithms, Varuna enables faster, safer, and more efficient operations than traditional methods. The integrated data analytics system empowers users to monitor performance, track coverage, and make informed decisions for future spraying cycles.
Whether it’s weed control, pest management, or nutrient application, Varuna helps farmers, cooperatives, and agri-service providers achieve more with less. It not only enhances productivity but also promotes sustainable agriculture by minimizing human exposure to chemicals and reducing resource wastage.
With Varuna, Khetpilot brings a new era of precision agriculture to life—where innovation takes flight to protect crops, preserve nature, and power prosperity for every farmer.
