Green Aero wins exclusive Canadian distribution for Ceres Air farm drones

Green Aero Technology has secured exclusive Canadian distribution rights for Ceres Air agricultural drone systems, adding spraying and spreading platforms as Canada’s precision-agriculture rules shift. The deal positions the Vancouver company to serve farmers and custom applicators with drone hardware, training, service and support.

Why it matters: - Green Aero Technology gains a new product line in Canada’s growing agricultural drone market. - The deal adds precision-application tools that can help farmers spray or spread inputs when wet fields, difficult terrain or narrow timing windows limit ground equipment. - The agreement arrives after Health Canada updated policy to allow remotely piloted aircraft systems to apply certain registered pest control products under existing label and regulatory requirements.

What happened: - Green Aero Technology Inc. announced an exclusive distribution license for Ceres Air agricultural drone systems in Canada. - The Vancouver-based company said the agreement expands its portfolio of advanced agricultural technologies. - Ceres Air is a U.S.-based agricultural drone technology company focused on aerial systems for heavy-lift and farm applications. - Green Aero said the partnership strengthens its role as a Canadian provider of drone technology, training, service and support for agriculture.

The details: - The Ceres Air platform includes systems for spraying, spreading and other agricultural uses. - The drones include advanced LiDAR and radar-based obstacle detection. - The systems also feature high-flow application systems, real-time flow monitoring and automated flight capabilities. - Green Aero said the platform is designed to improve payload capacity, application precision, sensing and operational efficiency. - David Koop, president of Green Aero Technology, said the exclusive relationship gives the company a chance to deliver cutting-edge technology to Canadian farmers at the right time. - Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency published Science Policy Document SPN2026-02 on June 30, 2026. - The policy framework allows RPAS, commonly known as drones, to apply pest control products already registered for conventional aerial application, if label directions and regulatory requirements are followed. - Health Canada said RPAS can give pesticide users greater flexibility and that the available data indicate the risks are generally similar to conventional aerial application. - Health Canada also recognized the potential for RPAS to apply pesticides with a high degree of precision.

Between the lines: - The timing suggests Green Aero is trying to move early as Canadian rules become more supportive of drone-based crop treatment. - The company is also building a broader North American precision-agriculture platform, not just a single-product sales channel. - Green Aero plans to use its dealer and service network to support equipment sales, training, technical expertise, parts and after-sales service. - Koop said agriculture is entering a period where data, automation and precision application are converging, and he said Green Aero intends to stay ahead of that shift.

What's next: - Green Aero plans to introduce Ceres Air products in Canada through its industry relationships and expanding dealer network. - Canadian producers and service organizations can expect access to equipment, training, parts and technical support tied to the new product line. - The company is positioning the Ceres Air line for adoption as drone-based agricultural applications become more common in Canadian farming.
