What is Precision Agriculture — what do buyers need to know?
Precision agriculture is a data-driven approach to commercial farming where inputs — water, fertilizer, pesticides, seed rate — are applied at the right amount, place and time based on sensors, GPS, satellite imagery, soil maps and analytics. It targets higher yields, lower input cost and reduced environmental footprint.
