PRECISION AGRICULTURE
Precision agriculture, often referred to as
“precision ag,” is a cutting-edge approach to farming that harnesses technology and data to optimize crop production. It involves the precise application of resources like water, fertilizers, and pesticides based on real-time data collected from sources like satellites, drones, and sensors. This data-driven farming technique ensures that each area of a field receives precisely what it needs, reducing waste and promoting sustainability. Precision agriculture
has become a cornerstone of modern farming, enabling more efficient resource management, higher crop yields, and environmentally responsible practices.
