Crops: Rice, Cucumber, Potato
I got 14 soil samples tested through Gurudrone, and the results were accurate and reliable. The team collected and tested the samples within a day and provided detailed reports with fertilizer recommendations in 1–2 days. They guided me on sample collection, report interpretation, and nutrient application, helping me reduce fertilizer use, improve soil fertility, and boost crop yields. I continue to take ongoing guidance from Gurudrone, making my farming more scientific, cost-effective, and sustainable. I’m very satisfied and will test my soil with them every season.

"I regularly use my agricultural drone, and when I faced a GPS and battery issue, Gurudrone Service Centre responded immediately. They conducted a video check the same day, and a technician serviced my drone the next day. Servicing was completed in just two days, with genuine parts and reliable support, even though I’m outside Kurukshetra. Gurudrone’s service centre is truly dependable for VLEs across Haryana."

I used Gurudrone’s spraying service for my paddy crop and I am extremely satisfied. They sprayed 10 acres in under an hour, saving time, labour, water, and pesticide compared to manual methods. My crop looked healthier, and pest control was much more effective. The team guided me through every step safely and professionally. I will definitely use Gurudrone again next season."

"With Gurudrone’s full support, I got my subsidy loan verified and disbursed in just 15 days, allowing me to purchase my agricultural drone hassle-free. Their guidance made the process smooth, and now I’ve started providing spraying services in my area."
Soil is the thin top layer of the earth that makes farming possible. For a farmer, soil is not just ordinary dirt – it is a living resource that provides crops with food, water, and a strong base for roots to grow. Healthy soil contains minerals, air, water, and countless microorganisms that work together to support plant life. If the soil is in good condition, the crops will grow healthy, yields will increase, and farmers will earn more profit. In short, healthy soil means healthy crops, and healthy crops bring better income.
The formation of soil is a very slow natural process that takes thousands of years. It starts when big rocks break down into smaller pieces because of wind, water, temperature changes, and rainfall. Over time, these rock particles get mixed with organic matter such as dead plants, animals, and microorganisms. This combination of minerals and organic matter slowly turns into fertile soil. Different regions form different types of soil, and each type is suitable for certain crops. By understanding how soil is formed and what type of soil they have, farmers can choose the right crops and manage their fields better.
At present, the condition of soil in many farming areas is declining. The overuse of chemical fertilizers and pesticides has disturbed the natural nutrient balance of the soil. In some areas, over-irrigation and poor water management have caused salinity and alkalinity, which harm the soil and crops. The level of organic carbon in the soil is also decreasing because farmers are not applying enough organic manure. Continuous cropping without giving soil time to recover is damaging the soil structure. All these problems combined are reducing soil fertility and productivity, leading to lower crop yields and less profit for farmers. If this continues, farming will become more expensive and less sustainable. Farmers must now focus on restoring soil health to secure better future harvests
Our soil testing process is designed to be simple and farmer-friendly. Farmers can collect soil samples directly from their fields and send them to us from any corner of the country. Once the sample reaches us, our advanced sensor-based machine quickly analyzes it with high accuracy. Within just one hour, the soil health report is delivered to the farmer on WhatsApp. Along with the report, we provide personalized recommendations according to the crop being grown. This helps farmers know exactly which nutrients, fertilizers, or organic inputs their crop requires. By following this method, farmers save money by applying only what is necessary, improve crop growth, and protect soil health for the long term.
Our soil testing system is unique and farmer-focused. Unlike traditional soil labs that may take several days, our sensor-based machines give reports within just one hour. This saves time and helps farmers make quick decisions for their crops. We provide crop-specific and practical recommendations instead of general advice, which ensures that farmers apply only what is truly needed. Our communication is simple, as we send results directly on WhatsApp so that even farmers in remote areas can easily access them. We also provide continuous support to guide farmers throughout the crop cycle. Our aim is not just soil testing, but to be a long-term partner in farmers’ success

Vision for Change
The idea of Gurudrone was born when Mr. Jatinder, an Agriculture B.Tech graduate working as a Rural Development Officer (RDO) in a bank, observed farmers’ challenges very closely. He realized that farmers were struggling with high input costs and earning very little profit. With a vision to bring modern technology into agriculture, he began planning to introduce drones for farming. Manual spray was not only physically damaging the crops but was also severely affecting the health of farmers and laborers, often causing harmful diseases like cancer.
His main vision was to reduce the overuse of pesticides, which not only harms crops and soil but also increases farmers’ expenses. According to him, agriculture drones are “Revolution 2.0” in the agriculture sector. The ultimate goal was to reduce farmers’ input costs and make agriculture both profitable and sustainable.

First Step into Drone Technology
After exploring different possibilities, Mr. Jatinder decided to take the first step by purchasing an agricultural drone to gain practical experience. While searching online, he came across the Iotech website and was convinced about the potential of their drones. Gurudrone purchased its first agricultural drone under the Agriculture Infrastructure Fund (AIF) policy. The cost was ₹10 lakh for the drone and ₹1 lakh for pilot certification. Mr. Lokesh Sheokand became the first certified agricultural drone pilot, and also the first male drone pilot from Haryana. To spread awareness, the team started village-to-village demonstrations. But convincing farmers was extremely difficult—many were not even ready to listen, let alone agree to get their crops sprayed through drones. They faced initial resistance from farmers, and due to inexperience and frequent crashes, financial losses also occurred. Still, these early struggles became valuable lessons for the future.

Breakthrough and Expansion
In February 2023
Gurudrone got its first major spraying contract of 300 acres at the rate of ₹600 per acre from BASF. Successfully completing this project boosted confidence and motivated the team to move forward with more energy. Later, Syngenta showed interest in collaborating but required Gurudrone to operate with at least 10 drones

Scaling Operations and Service
Infrastructure In January 2024, Mr. Jatinder made a life-changing decision by resigning from his government job to dedicate himself fully to farmers and Gurudrone’s mission.By May 2024, Gurudrone introduced the Village Level Entrepreneur (VLE) model to build a strong farmer support network and ensure that drone technology could reach every corner of rural areas. However, due to repeated drone crashes and continuous financial losses, the team realized the need for technical self-reliance. As a result, Gurudrone started its own drone repair and service center, which not only reduced downtime for farmers but also supported other drone operators in the region.
2025 -
Technology Enhancement and Network Expansion
In May 2025, Gurudrone adopted advanced sensor-based soil testing machines, which made the process of testing soil easier and more practical for farmers. These machines were demonstrated during village awareness camps, helping farmers understand the importance of soil health and responsible pesticide use. Alongside spraying services, Gurudrone now actively promoted soil care and balanced fertilizer usage.
The VLE network expanded rapidly across Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, and Rajasthan, with nearly 150 drones operating in the field. This expansion ensured maximum farmer coverage for spraying, soil testing, and service support. By 2025, Gurudrone had established professional offices, multiple branches, and a strong repair and maintenance infrastructure. The company had grown into a trusted name in modern agriculture, empowering rural youth and making technology accessible to farmers at the grassroots level.
