In Episode 11 of The DroneOn Show, Mike and Kevin share their mind-blowing trip to China’s biggest UAV expo in Shenzhen, home to 70% of global consumer drones. From power-washing skyscrapers to fire-suppression drones, China’s cutting-edge applications soar with government incentives for farmers, outpacing U.S. progress stalled by FAA’s 3-6 month delays and tariff chaos. They dream up a future with robotic arms swapping heavy drone batteries to ease 35-pound pack struggles, offering gritty insights for ag innovators. #DroneOnShow #AgDrones #DroneBusiness #NuWayAg
