Module 41B: Precision Agriculture - Benefits and Application for Crops (Optional)
Outcome
Investigate the benefits and application of precision technology in crop production.
Indicators
(a) Describe how applications of precision agriculture (e.g., variable rate application, yield monitoring and weed, soil and salinity mapping) may increase farm efficiencies.
(b) Discuss how precision agriculture technologies impact gathering, storing and interpreting crop records and data.
(c) Explore the controversy that surrounds who owns the data collected by technology.
(d) Explore the impact of machine learning on the precision of crop farming equipment.
(e) Investigate how aerial and/or satellite imagery of a field are used to interpret crop and soil data and for the security and surveillance of farm property.
(f) Analyze how soil type and salinity data are used to determine the inputs (e.g., type and quantity of seed and fertilizer) applied in different areas of a field.
