Hope everyone doing well.
I am planning to have long distance mission 2-3Km, deliver seeds.
Is there a way to calculate how long will it go? (I mean it complete mission and RTL before battery goes critical)

Plan the mission in MissionPlanner and it will show you the distance and calculated time at your WPNAV speed, or whatever speeds you set in the mission.
