Nashik was one of the first districts in the state to begin using drones for land assessment and digitisation of properties in gaothan villages (old villages) in rural areas in 2020, while a section of farmers in Pune and Kolhapur have been spraying insecticides with them. Mahesh Shindhe, the Nashik superintendent of land records, said on Tuesday that drones have been used to assess 622 gaothan villages so far. This comes after finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced the promotion of Kisan Drones for crop assessment, digitisation of land records, and insecticide spraying from the next fiscal year in her Union Budget speech. The British regime did not survey the gaothan areas of villages where people lived before independence. Houses were built without the use of a property card or dimensions. Because there is no reliable information about the property owner, banks refuse to fund the development of such properties. Shinde said that this is why the city survey is conducted in such remote locations. The property is indexed, and the property owner is determined based on gram panchayat authentication. The property holder receives the property card that has been prepared. In Nashik, there are approximately 1,300 gaothan villages. With the help of the Survey of India, land assessment using drones is carried out. After the owner's property has been delineated and captured by drones, the Survey of India reviews it for final approval. Landowners are then given property cards by the administration. Cut to the farming sector. Farmers in rural Pune, Kolhapur, Sangli, and Satara have been spraying insecticides and nutrients absorbed through leaves with drones. Arun Swant, a sugarcane farmer from Sangli's Palus town, said he rented a drone to spray insecticides because it made the job easier. On a trial basis, some sugar mills have begun spraying pesticides in sugar cane farms using drones.The millers claimed that subsidising drones through the Kisan Drone programme would help modernise agriculture and boost yields. Jitendra Bidwai, the president of the Junnar tehsil grape growers' association in the Pune district, has been spraying insecticides with drones.
