en.Wedoany.com Reported - Aeromax and the DolgovGroup agricultural holding company have launched field tests of agricultural drones in the Kaliningrad Region. According to Kaliningrad Region Governor Alexei Besprozvannykh, by October 2026, these drones will have cumulatively treated thousands of hectares of fields, focusing on areas with complex terrain where traditional agricultural machinery is difficult to use or inefficient. The tests will be conducted in the Gusevsky, Nesterovsky, Chernyakhovsky, Krasnoznamensky, Ozyorsky, and Gvardeysky districts.

This innovative approach aims to optimize land cultivation and increase yields. Operating at heights of up to five meters, agricultural drones do not damage crops when spraying plant protection agents and improve application precision, leading to more effective disease and pest control. The use of drones reduces soil compaction from heavy machinery and enables round-the-clock operations, allowing fields to be treated immediately even after rainfall.

DolgovGroup agricultural holding company founders Alexander Dolgov and Dmitry Dolgov noted that participating in this project helps introduce advanced technologies into production and enhance resource efficiency. Valery Pashchenko, Deputy General Director for Business Development at Aeromax Group, added that the company is considering expanding the volume of services and the scope of drone applications in the region. In the future, drone systems could be used not only in agriculture but also for forest monitoring and logistics tasks. The Kaliningrad Region is implementing a drone aviation development program called "Amber Drone," which extends to 2030, with one of its key directions being the digitalization of the agricultural complex using drone technology. The regional government is also exploring the use of drones in other sectors of the national economy. Talent training is a priority, with local demand for drone system operators growing year by year. Aeromax operates a training center that provides personnel training and retraining for civilian industries, and participants in special military operations with practical drone operation skills may be attracted to this work.
