Saifuddin: Malaysia has potential to be major player in global drone industry

“It is time we harnessed this talent to modernise traditional methods used even today in major industries across the globe,” he said here today at the launch of Oryctes, Malaysia’s first spot precision drone designed specifically for oil palm plantations.“I hope this will set a precedent for not only increased adoption of drone technology in Malaysia but also a boost in fresh technological advancements to help fulfil the nation’s goals of becoming a developed, high-income nation,” he added.

Oryctes has been engineered to eradicate agricultural pests known to inflict extensive damage on young oil palm trees by spraying pesticidal fluids directly onto the vulnerable spot of the tree using precision spot application technology. The foldable drone covers two to three hectares of spraying every hour and comes with a customisable spray system. It is available in two models.
