Agras T70P vs Solix
Two spraying machines, one verified table. Every figure below is sourced and dated; vendor claims are labelled and kept apart from independent results.
DJI's 70 kg-payload spray-spread-lift drone (global launch July 2025) — 70 L spray tank, 100 L spread hopper, dual millimetre-wave radar and tri-vision obstacle sensing.
Best for: Contractors and larger growers who outgrew the T50 and want one aircraft for spraying, spreading and heavy lifting.Solar-powered scouting and spot-spraying robot from Brazilian-founded Solinftec (global HQ West Lafayette, Indiana) — lives in the field 24/7, monitors up to 2 million plants a day and applies herbicide plant-by-plant; 100+ robots deployed, US acreage up 243% year-on-year into 2026.
Best for: Large US corn-belt and Brazilian row-crop operations wanting continuous in-field scouting plus targeted herbicide application without diesel or an operator.| Agras T70P Verified 2026-07-16 | Solix Verified 2026-07-16 | |
