"We obtained our drone pilot licenses through learning. For example, in case of heavy fog and we can't see the road or when it's windy and rainy, we can use drones to observe where the camels are."

"If we can't herd them ourselves, for instance when the weather is bad, we just use drones to drive the camels home or to places with better grass. This way, it's both time- and energy-saving."

Herdsmen in Bohu County of northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region now remotely herd camels at home by leveraging advanced technology.
Dorjara, a herder from Bosten Lake Town in the county, raises over 200 camels. Now, he can remotely guide his herd to the populus euphratica forests 1.8 kilometers away from his home by operating an agricultural drone.
"We obtained our drone pilot licenses through learning. For example, in case of heavy fog and we can't see the road or when it's windy and rainy, we can use drones to observe where the camels are," he explained.
The herder also attached satellite positioning chips to the herd's leading camels to monitor the real-time location and activities of the herd on his smartphone at home. That coupled with drones have significantly enhanced the efficiency of managing camels.
