In Markit County of Kashgar, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, spring farming is getting a high-tech boost.

Over 230,000 acres of wheat are being protected by swarms of crop-dusting drones. Guided by the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System, these drones apply pesticide with pinpoint accuracy, avoiding overlaps and reducing crop damage. With agricultural technicians on-site, driverless machinery and coordinated drone operations are accelerating spring plowing for a productive year ahead.
