Lawmakers want US to address risks posed by Chinese agriculture drones

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A dozen U.S. lawmakers on Friday urged the Biden administration to address the use of Chinese manufactured agriculture drones, saying their use on American farms poses national security risks.

The House Republicans, including Representatives Elise Stefanik, Ashley Hinson and John Moolenaar, who chairs a select committee on China, asked the U.S. Agriculture Department and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency in letters seen by Reuters to detail the administration's efforts to address risks posed by aerosol dispensing drones and brief Congress by Sept. 30 and cited the large number of drones produced by Chinese-drone manufacturer DJI.
