Yes. Manufacturer financing programs, farm credit associations and USDA FSA Farm Loan programs all offer 2 to 7 year equipment loans for agricultural drones. Typical down payment is 10 to 25 percent, with rates currently running 6 to 9 percent depending on credit and loan program. USDA EQIP reimbursement cannot be assigned to a lender but can be used as the initial down payment.
The National Defense Authorization Act restricts federal agencies and many state agencies from using drones with components from designated foreign manufacturers, which includes DJI and XAG. NDAA-compliant drones are sourced from approved manufacturers on the DoD Blue UAS list, currently including Hylio, Skydio, Parrot and others. Commercial ag operators working only private farm contracts are not subject to NDAA, but operators doing USDA, state university or federally funded work often are.
