Precision farming is a farming system concept which involves the development and adoption of knowledge based technical management systems with the main goal of optimizing profit. This management system will enable micro-management concepts, that are the ability to appropriately manage if it is technically and economically advantageous to manage at that level. The system will likely include the ability to vary or tailor the rate of application of all inputs such as tillage, seeds, weed, insect and disease control, cultivation and irrigation.
