Deskripsi

Precision agriculture (PA) is a cutting-edge, comprehensive, and globally recognized method. PA entails the application of agronomic ideas and modern technologies to improve sustainability, agricultural output, and environmental quality. This article is mostly concerned with sensing techniques. Remote sensing is a useful technique in PA for spotting, predicting, and predetermining the levels of infestations, and for controlling pests and diseases on a variety of fruits and crops. Sensors also transform traditional farming methods into precision farming methods, which helps to cut back on unnecessary input costs and raises agricultural productivity. By using these techniques, the application of pesticides can be quickly and locally administered.
