[Drones in America](https://marketscale.com/industries/original-series/drones-in-america/) host [Grant Guillot](https://marketscale.com/industries/contributors/grant-j-guillot/) looks at the future of American manufactured drones through AgEagle, a company that has expanded its manufacturing capabilities for commercial use applications in recent years due to increased demand and uncertainty in the industry’s future.

Guillot sat down with [Matt Martin](https://ageagle.com/leaders/matt-martin/), Vice President of Operations at [AgEagle](https://ageagle.com/leaders/matt-martin/), to get a better understanding of the history of the agriculture industry’s implementation drones to streamline crop monitoring and surveillance, as well as the work that is being done to secure a Type Certification by the FAA. The agency has yet to issue a certification that would take drone delivery to the next step in becoming a widely available option, but several companies are aiming for that goal in the near future.
