🎯 The Core Concept: Site-Specific Management
Precision Agriculture (PA), also known as precision farming or smart farming, is a management strategy that uses cutting-edge technology to observe, measure, and respond to variability within a field or farm.
Instead of treating an entire field uniformly (the traditional approach), PA treats specific, localized areas according to their individual needs, leading to significant increases in efficiency, productivity, and sustainability.
Increased Yields: Crops receive the optimal inputs precisely when needed, leading to healthier plants and consistent yield increases (up to 4% on average).
Cost Savings: Reduced fuel consumption from optimized machine routes and lower labor costs from automated tasks.
