3rd Edition of Agriculture, Forestry, and Horticulture World Conference 2027
Scientific Sessions - AFHWC 2027
Precision Agriculture, Drones and Remote Sensing
Precision agriculture is a farm management approach that recognises that soil, moisture, nutrients and crop growth vary from one part of a field to another, and treats each area according to its needs. It relies on technologies such as GPS-guided machinery, yield monitors, soil sensors and variable-rate equipment that applies seed, fertiliser, water or pesticides in different amounts across a field. Remote sensing provides the information behind these decisions: satellites, aircraft and drones (unmanned aerial vehicles) capture images that reveal crop vigour, water stress, nutrient deficiency, weeds and disease. By applying inputs only where they are needed, precision agriculture improves yields, lowers costs and reduces environmental impact.
What You Will Learn
- How drone and satellite imagery is used to monitor crop health and stress
- Variable-rate application of water, fertiliser and crop protection products
- Yield mapping and data-driven field management
- Real-world experience of adopting precision tools on different farm types
