Precision Agriculture

Precision Agriculture refers to a farming management concept that employs information technology and various tools to ensure that crops and soil receive exactly what they need for optimum health and productivity. It involves the use of data analysis, GPS technology, sensors, drones, and satellite imagery to monitor and manage field variability in crops. The main goal of precision agriculture is to increase yields while reducing waste, minimizing environmental impact, and optimizing resource use—water, fertilizers, and pesticides—resulting in more sustainable farming practices. By precisely tailoring agricultural practices to the specific conditions of different parts of a field, farmers can enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and improve overall crop performance.
