Recent Innovation in Precision Agriculture and their Impact on Crop and Soil Health: A Compressive Review

Abstract

The maintenance of soil fertility and on-farm research or demonstrations might be enhanced by precision agricultural technologies. Using state-of-the-art technology, precision agriculture boosts agricultural output without negatively affecting the environment. Utilising cutting-edge technology and data analysis, precision agriculture aims to boost production, minimise waste, and maximise crop yields. This might be a viable approach to addressing some of the main problems facing modern agriculture, such feeding an expanding global population while lessening its impact on the environment. The application of precision agriculture starts with the collection of real-time data from various sources, such as satellite imagery, remote sensing, global positioning systems, geographic information systems, drones, soil sensors, and weather stations. Precision agriculture has become essential in addressing the challenges posed by a growing global population, climate change, and resource constraints. Recognising within-field variability and providing chances for differentiating treatment of sections within a field or industrial unit are what fuel demand for precision agriculture. Precision agriculture technology plays an important part in sustainable soil and crop management in modern agriculture by lowering crop production inputs and managing lands in an ecologically responsible way.
