Are You A Precision Grower?

摘要

ARE YOU a "precision grower"? Don't answer this question too quickly. Some specialty crop growers are steeped in cutting-edge technologies yet don't see themselves as being practitioners of precision agriculture. Conversely, there are thousands of rowcrop growers in the U.S. using fairly commonplace technology — GPS-guided autosteer, for instance — who consider themselves precision adopters. So who's right or wrong?To answer this question we must get to a durable definition of precision agriculture that is specific enough to distinguish between real users and non-users. At Meister Media we feel precision programs are as real for specialty crop growers as they are for row crop growers.
