Current Situation
Pesticides, fertilizers, and other chemicals are applied to crops and the land throughout the farm without accuracy.
Goals and Objectives
It involves optimization of input application following the 4Rs (right time, right source, right rate, right place) to limit environmental impact, economic losses, and increase efficiency.
Technology Deployed
Variable rate technology (VRT), sensors, analytics, IoT, cognitive, mobile, and drones
Use Case Summary
Increase input application precision by using VRT, modelling, and actionable data to optimize or avoid input use, minimizing waste and environmental impact.
