Guangzhou, China — On November 20, XAG held its Annual Conference (XAAC 2024) under the theme “Future Farming Unfolds", marking a major milestone in XAG’s journey to build a fully integrated agriculture ecosystem. Centered around four critical agricultural stages—land preparation, sowing, crop management, and harvesting—the conference showcased XAG's 2025 product lineup, including P150/P60 Agricultural Drone, APC2 AutoPilot Console, and Smart Fertigation System.

At the conference, Peng Bin, CEO of XAG, emphasized the urgent need for a system-based approach to tackle modern agricultural challenges such as rural aging, climate change, and food security. XAG’s integrated smart farm solutions—combining autonomous drones, ground robots, fertigation systems, and IoT devices—promise to improve efficiency and reduce production costs for farmers globally.

The event attracted over 150 distributors and partners of XAG from more than 30 countries and regions. Representatives from key markets shared their success stories at XAAC 2024, highlighting the localized impact of XAG technologies.

XAG P150/P60 Agricultural Drone: The Next-Level Efficiency

XAG sets a new benchmark in smart farming with its P150 drone, featuring the highest payload and unmatched efficiency in the international drone market. Through cutting-edge industrial design, intelligent flight ability, and smartphone control, the XAG P150 Agricultural Drone is capable of fulfilling plant protection needs and diverse farming tasks including seeding, fertilizer spreading, and field mapping.

At the core of the XAG P150's innovation lies its remarkable 70 kg payload capacity and a flight speed of 18 m/s, enabling larger-scale operations with enhanced productivity. Its modular, collapsible, quick-release design allows seamless switching between different task systems, as well as fast, hassle-free transportation and setup.

Equipped with the 4th-generation RevoSpray or RevoCast System, the P150 drone can achieve an application rate of up to 30 L/min for spraying or 280 kg/min for granular spreading. These capabilities translate to open field efficiencies of up to 26 hectares sprayed per hour or 2,167 kg spread per hour.

Powered by the SuperX5 Pro Intelligent Control System, the XAG P150 can conduct fully autonomous operations with a few taps on a smartphone. Through the XAG One App, users gain access to intuitive features such as intelligent route planning, swarm control, and prescription map operation. This enables variable-rate application of pesticides, fertilizers, and seeds, targeting specific areas to reduce waste and minimize environmental impact.

For smaller-scale operations, the compact P60 Agricultural Drone delivers the same intelligent capabilities in a more flexible and cost-effective design, making it an excellent entry-level solution.

XAG APC2 AutoPilot Console: Navigate with Precision

Breaking through the limitations of traditional autopilot systems, the XAG APC2 Autopilot Console delivers a cost-effective automated steering solution for agricultural machinery such as tractors, transplanters and harvesters, which enables centimeter-level accuracy operation and reduces operator fatigue on farm.

Tractor equipped with XAG APC2 AutoPilot Console

Traditional autopilot systems have long posed significant barriers for small and medium-sized tractor operators. Despite small tractors vastly outnumbering large tractors by tens or even hundreds to one, prohibitive costs, complex interfaces, and complicated installation procedures have kept automation out of reach for most small tractor users.

Where traditional systems failed with high costs and complexity, the XAG APC2 succeeds with its all-in-one design. It features a compact mainframe and electric steering wheel, allowing for a quick 20-minute installation and intuitive control via smartphone. Equipped with RTK navigation technology, the XAG APC2 achieves ±2.5 cm accuracy for high-precision tasks like seeding, ridging, and furrowing, maximizing land use efficiency while reducing fuel, fertilizer, and chemical costs.

The XAG AutoPilot App offers versatile guidance options-straight lines, curves, and diagonals—as well as automatic U-turn to suit diverse field shapes and terrains. The app also supports over-the-air (OTA) updates for continuous performance enhancements.

To ensure precision navigation in diverse environments, the APC2 is compatible with multiple global correction services, including network RTK (CORS), mobile base stations, or Precise Point Positioning (PPP).

XAG Smart Fertigation System: Manage Farm with a Smartphone

XAG Smart Fertigation System

While drones have reshaped pesticide application, the XAG Smart Fertigation System tackles the remaining challenge—bringing precision and efficiency to water and nutrient delivery through smartphones. Together, these integrated technologies complete the smart farming ecosystem, equipping farmers to manage tasks—from plant protection to irrigation and fertigation- all at their fingertips.

XAG Smart Fertigation System can seamlessly integrate with the existing irrigation setups to automate the distribution of water and nutrients. By dissolving fertilizers into liquid form that flows directly to plant roots through pipes, the system optimizes crop nutrition, and controls irrigation timing and volume for maximum efficiency. In an era of labor shortages and resource constraints, this solution achieves more with less.

Farmers can easily manage irrigation and fertigation plans through the XAG Farm App, which coordinates water pumps, fertilizer injectors, and electric valves for consistent and precise fertigation with minimal effort. Equipment status and operational data, including water pressure and nutrient concentration, are visually displayed on the App for real-time monitoring from anywhere.

The XAG Local Server creates a secure, dedicated farm network that provides stable connectivity and protects data without relying on external networks. Paired with the Wireless Relay, it extends signal range and ensures smooth, efficient farm operations.

XAG's smart agricultural solution focuses on four agricultural stages: land preparation, sowing, crop management, and harvesting

Themed “Future Farming Unfolds,” the XAAC 2024 reflected XAG’s 11-year journey of innovation in agriculture. Today, its autonomous, efficient and sustainable smart agriculture ecosystem is revolutionizing farms worldwide, offering comprehensive solutions across the production lifecycle.
