Location: Melbourne-based, servicing regional Victoria.
Sector: Agriculture, AgTech and Drone Services.
Specialty: Drone pesticide, herbicide, fungicide and crop-spraying solutions
The Opportunity
We are seeking an investor or strategic business partner to help establish and grow a professional agricultural drone-spraying business based in Melbourne and servicing farms, orchards, vineyards and agricultural properties throughout Victoria.
Agricultural drone technology provides farmers with a faster, more targeted and highly efficient method of applying approved pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and liquid crop treatments. It can also assist with hard-to-access areas, reduce reliance on traditional ground equipment and support more precise farm-management practices.
The vision is to build a trusted, professionally operated agricultural drone service that combines modern technology, responsive customer service and strong relationships with Victorian farmers and agricultural businesses.
Proposed Service
The business will offer services including:
- Drone pesticide and crop spraying
- Targeted weed and pest-control applications
- Herbicide and fungicide application
- Liquid fertiliser and crop-treatment application
- Spraying for farms, orchards and vineyards
- Treatment of difficult or inaccessible terrain
- Custom spraying programs for agricultural clients
- Future expansion into crop monitoring, mapping and aerial imaging
All operations will be undertaken subject to the required aviation, chemical-use, insurance and operational approvals.
Investment Opportunity
We are looking for an investor who can provide capital and, where suitable, strategic business experience to support the launch and expansion of the operation.
Investment funds are expected to contribute towards:
- Professional agricultural spraying drones and supporting equipment
- Transport, batteries, charging systems and field equipment
- Required licences, training, certifications and insurance
- Business development, marketing and customer acquisition
- Operational systems and working capital
- Expansion into additional Victorian agricultural regions
The investment amount, ownership structure and level of involvement are open for discussion with the right person.

- Capacity to make a meaningful capital investment
- An interest in agriculture, AgTech or commercial drone services
- Business-development or operational experience
- Connections within farming or regional Victorian communities
- A practical, long-term approach to building a scalable service business
- A commitment to safety, compliance and professional service delivery
Both active strategic partners and suitable passive investors may be considered.
What We Bring
- A clear business concept focused on a growing agricultural service
- Commitment to developing the operation across Victoria
- A technology-driven approach to efficient agricultural spraying
- Focus on safety, regulatory compliance and professional standards
- Plans for targeted marketing and direct engagement with farmers
- Long-term potential to expand into monitoring, mapping and other precision-agriculture services
