Precision Agriculture Market Application (Crop Scouting, Yield Monitoring, Variable Rate Application, Soil Monitoring, Field Mapping)
Precision agriculture has proven to be a cost-effective and environmentally sustainable approach for farming practices. It is referred as a management concept that aims to monitor and control the variability in farm operations to achieve better yield.
Use of wireless communication and GPS in precision agriculture equipment enables auto-steering of vehicles, variable rate application of fertilizers, controlled operations of planters, seeders, sprayers and so on. These technologies also help the farmer in evaluating the crop production cycle with yield monitoring. Growing emphasis on input costs has triggered the need for optimal usage of resources such as fertilizers and machinery.
Driven by the rising adoption rates in developed nations and growing awareness in the major agricultural economies the Precision agriculture market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 12.9% through 2020. Guidance system dominates the precision agriculture market with a share of approximately 26%.

It is good that the Irish still don't get all upset about Irish jokes...
An Irish priest is driving down to New York and gets stopped for speeding in Connecticut.
The state trooper smells alcohol on the priest's breath and then sees an empty wine bottle on the floor of the car.
He says, "Sir, have you been drinking?"
"Just water," says the priest, fingers crossed.
The trooper says, "Then why do I smell wine?"
The priest looks at the bottle and says, "Good Lord! He's done it again!"
