Abstract:
This research document aims to address the challenges faced by modern agriculture, including resource inefficiency and environmental concerns, and proposes a solution utilizing precision agriculture techniques. The problem lies in the imprecise application of inputs, such as water, fertilizers, and pesticides, leading to wastage and potential harm to the ecosystem. The proposed solution involves the implementation of precision agriculture technologies, including remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS), and data analytics, to optimize input usage and improve crop yield. The methodology includes data collection through remote sensing, field sampling, and data analysis. The results indicate that precision agriculture techniques significantly improve resource efficiency, increase crop yield, and reduce environmental impact. The implications of this research highlight the potential for precision agriculture to address sustainability challenges and promote a more productive and environmentally friendly agricultural system.
