Precision agriculture is an emerging concept in the field of agriculture. Unlike conventional methods, where the farmers decision making is based on his/her intuition, precision agriculture provides quantitative evidence. The data collected using various enabling technologies helps the farmers in recognising patterns, based on which strategic decisions can be made. Also, with the evolution of smartphones, and Internet-of-Things (IoT), members of the agricultural value chain can assess the data collected from the farms in their smart devices, thereby leading to connectivity and convergence.
The research service “Technology Convergence enabling Precision Agriculture” highlights the key technologies enabling Precision Agriculture (PA). The research service also offers insights on the technology convergence scenarios, stakeholders involved in the precision agriculture ecosystem and key industry initiatives. It also provides insights on the patent and funding trends, and provides a snapshot of the global adoption footprint.
The research service covers PA related enabling technologies such as Wireless Sensor Networks, Global Navigation Satellite Systems, Cloud Computing, Machine-to-Machine Communication, Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Predictive analytics, Robotics, and Drones.
