DJI Agras Overview: The Lineup, the Prices, and What Buying Through a Dealer Really Means
DJI Agras is the default answer in agricultural spray drones the way DJI is the default in camera drones. It has the biggest operator base, the deepest dealer network, and the most mature software. That does not make it the right pick for everyone, and it does not make it cheap once you price the whole system. Here is the lineup and, more importantly, what actually happens when you buy one.
The Current Agras Lineup
| Model | Tank (spray) | Class | Rough price* | Who it is for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Agras T25 | 20L | Compact, one-person | ~$12,500 drone-only | Small to mid farms, self-operators, tight or hilly parcels |
| Agras T50 | 40L class | Production workhorse | ~$18,000 drone-only, low-to-mid $30,000s ready-to-fly | Row crops, custom applicators, real acreage |
| Agras T100 | 100L class | Flagship, multi-role | ~$25,500 and up, more configured | Largest fields, spray plus spread plus lift |
The T25: The Sensible Entry
The T25 is the one we point most new buyers toward. A 20 liter tank, foldable, light enough to carry in a pickup, and simple enough that one person runs it without a ground crew. It shares the same app, batteries philosophy, and dealer support as the bigger drones, so nothing about it is a dead end. Drone-only pricing lands around $12,500, which is the cheapest honest way into the DJI ecosystem. Full detail in the T25 review.
The T50: What Most Serious Buyers End Up On
The T50 is the production drone. Bigger tank, higher flow, the muscle to spray real acreage on a schedule, and the sensing to do it fast. Drone-only starts around $18,000, but almost nobody flies drone-only. The ready-to-fly kits, which add the batteries, fast chargers, and generator you need to keep it working all day, run into the low-to-mid thirty-thousands. See the T50 review and the T25 vs T50 comparison.
The T100: The Flagship
The T100 is the newest and largest, built for the biggest operations. A 100 liter class payload and multi-role capability, spray, spread, and lift, with the obstacle sensing and navigation to match. Pricing starts around $25,500 for the drone and climbs with configuration, with fully kitted quotes reported around $30,000 and up. This is a drone for operators who already know exactly why they need this much machine.
What Buying Through a Dealer Actually Involves
This is the part the spec sheets skip, and it is the part that separates the dealer tier from the Amazon tier. Buying an Agras is not a cart-and-checkout. Expect this:
- You buy from an authorized dealer, not a marketplace. Drone Nerds, AcuSpray, Talos, NuWay Ag, Agri Spray Drones, and others. The dealer is your support line, your parts source, and often your trainer.
- Drone-only vs ready-to-fly is a real fork. The drone-only price gets you the aircraft. Ready-to-fly kits add the batteries, chargers, and generator that make it a working tool. Budget for the kit, because you will buy it eventually anyway.
- Training is part of the deal. Reputable dealers include or strongly push training. This is a heavy aircraft dispensing chemical. The training is not upselling, it is how you avoid an expensive crash or a spray you have to redo.
- Batteries are a running cost. Big smart batteries wear out and get charged hard all day. Plan on replacing them over the drone's life, and on carrying enough to keep flying while others charge.
- Support and warranty are why you paid the premium. When something breaks in spray season, a dealer with parts on the shelf is the entire reason the dealer tier costs more. That is the product.
How to Buy It Well
Pick the smallest drone that covers your acreage on your schedule, then buy the full ready-to-fly kit rather than the drone-only teaser price. Buy from a dealer close enough to actually help you, take the training, and budget for battery replacement from day one. If you are NDAA-sensitive, DJI is off the table and you should read DJI vs Hylio. And if you are still not sure ownership beats hiring, run the cost per acre first.
