Who We Are
FARM-I-TUDE WAS ONE OF THE FIRST TO AG DRONE OPERATIONS
In 2021, FARM-i-TUDE became the 37th company in the United States to receive a Part 137 Agricultural Aircraft Operator Certificate.
This designation wasn’t just handed to us; it took a grueling 18 months to earn, and we learned every step of the way. With no established blueprint, FARM-i-TUDE worked side by side with our Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) to build the operational groundwork for safety and testing standards for AG drone operations. We didn’t just follow the rules; we helped write them.
Our leadership didn’t happen by accident. The entire FARM-i-TUDE board is comprised of women, each deeply established in the drone industry with a drive for aviation innovation and safety. Built with the support of talented colleagues across the agricultural and aviation industries, FARM-i-TUDE was designed from day one to prove the future of agricultural aviation looks different than its past.
FARM-i-TUDE is here to support the future of agricultural drone operations and drone services across the United States. Our goal is to innovate with our partners, providing value to new and established drone operators and creating a strong relationship between the agricultural and drone industry and beyond.
While much of the world was grounded by COVID-19, FARM-i-TUDE was flying.
Standing In & Standing Out
Operating at the height of the pandemic, FARM-i-TUDE became the only UAV company to receive official COVID disinfectant operational status, a recognition earned after deploying aerial disinfectant operations at Major League Baseball spring training stadiums. That work caught national attention, earning FARM-i-TUDE a feature in The New York Times for its role in the COVID response.
Forever Innovating
The Future Of Aerial Drone Operations
When UAV agricultural operations were still finding their footing, Farmitude didn't wait for the industry to catch up, and we’re leading the way for the future of drone services. Today we're testing modern UAV technology in new frontiers. We are proud to deploy the first NDAA-compliant, American-made agricultural blue-list drone (the Revolution I-19) in partnership with the US Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of War. Together, we’re pioneering new initiatives in invasive species management and fire suppression, demonstrating how precision aerial technology can protect national forests and create a thriving industry for current and future operators.
