• Precision agriculture technology for crop farming

  Precision agriculture technologies have developed over the last three decades to aid plant agriculture. This book reviews what has happened in the past, what the cur rent situation is, and predicts what the future may hold for these technologies. Top experts who have contributed to the development of precision agriculture provide the information. Agriculture must provide an ever-increasing amount of quality food, fiber, feed, and fuel for humankind. And it must do this in a manner that is environmentally, economically, and sociopolitically sustainable. This will become even more challenging in the future as there is no single technology that can solve this problem. The development and proper implementation of precision agriculture therefore can be a great help toward achieving this very important task.
