Module 41C: Precision Agriculture - Specialized Technology for Crop Production (Optional)
Outcome
Explore the use of
specialized technology in
crop production.
Indicators
(a) | Assess the advantages, disadvantages and safety requirements when using self-driving vehicles in crop farming operations. |
(b) | Examine how drones can be used in gathering data and performing tasks (e.g., crop and weed identification and soil tracking) in precision agriculture. |
(c) | Explore how robotics can be used to automate specific tasks on a farm (e.g., data gathering like soil sampling and crop maturity). |
(d) | Investigate the use of weather stations to maximize crop yield. |
(e) | Discuss the use of blockchain as a system to manage crop records that are completely transparent. |
(f) | Research a specific technology being developed or adapted for crop production in precision agriculture. |
(g) | Consider the advantages (e.g., increased efficiency) and disadvantages (e.g., start-up costs) of investing in technology to increase revenue in crop production. |
