The DJI Agras T50 is the most widely used commercial spray drone in US agriculture, with a 40-liter tank, 50 kg dry hopper and 9 to 12 minute battery charge cycle. Pre-tariff MSRP was approximately $18,000; post-2025 tariff escalation to 170 percent pushed dealer pricing to $22,000 to $28,000. It is not NDAA compliant. Field throughput runs 40 to 60 acres per flight hour for fungicide and insecticide applications at 2 to 5 gallons per acre.
The DJI Agras T50 is the most widely used commercial ag spray drone in the United States, accounting for the majority of the estimated 10.3 million drone-sprayed acres in 2024. Its 40-liter (10.6 gallon) spray tank and 75-liter (50 kg) dry hopper handle both liquid pesticide application and dry granular spreading including cover crop seed, urea and gypsum. The T50 produces 16 L/min flow rate on 2 nozzles and 24 L/min on 4 nozzles, with a 4 to 11 meter (13 to 36 foot) adjustable swath width. Battery swap and charge runs 9 to 12 minutes on the DB1560 battery (30 Ah, 52.22 V, approximately 1,567 Wh) and the included T50 Intelligent Charging Hub supports rapid cycling for continuous field operation. The T50 features front and rear phased-array radar, binocular vision and a terrain-following LiDAR system for obstacle avoidance and precision altitude hold. RTK GPS delivers centimeter-level positioning for automated mission planning with under 3 percent overlap. Pre-tariff MSRP ran approximately $18,000 for the drone, remote controller and battery cooling kit. Post-April 2025 tariff escalation to 170 percent on Chinese drones pushed effective pricing significantly higher, with dealer quotes in early 2026 ranging from $22,000 to $28,000 depending on inventory vintage. Not NDAA compliant.

A single T50 covers 40 to 60 acres per flight hour at 2 to 5 gallons per acre, translating to 300 to 600 acres per day depending on field layout, battery cycling and refill logistics. Two-drone crews routinely hit 600 to 1,000 acres per day during peak corn fungicide season.
Pre-tariff MSRP was approximately $18,000. Cumulative tariffs on Chinese drones reached 170 percent by April 2025, with drones explicitly excluded from electronics tariff exemptions. Dealer pricing in early 2026 ranges from $22,000 to $28,000 depending on when the dealer acquired inventory. Prices are volatile and changing with each tariff update.
No. DJI products are manufactured in China and are not compliant with NDAA Sections 889 and 848. Operators working federal, state or NDAA-restricted contracts should consider Hylio AG-272 or other US-manufactured alternatives. Private farm contracts are not subject to NDAA restrictions.
Yes. The T50 swaps between a 40-liter liquid tank and a 75-liter (50 kg) dry hopper for granular spreading. Cover crop seeding, urea spreading and gypsum application all use the dry hopper. Switching between liquid and dry configurations takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes in the field.
The T50 replaced the T40 in DJI lineup. Key upgrades include improved radar obstacle avoidance, better terrain-following LiDAR, faster battery charging and refined spray system calibration. The T40 is no longer listed on ag.dji.com and is effectively discontinued from new purchase through authorized channels, though units remain in service.
