Answer:
Agriculture Technology
Modern farms and agricultural operations work far differently than those a few decades ago, primarily because of advancements in technology, including sensors, devices, machines, and information technology. Today’s agriculture routinely uses sophisticated technologies such as robots, temperature and moisture sensors, aerial images, and GPS technology. These advanced devices and precision agriculture and robotic systems allow businesses to be more profitable, efficient, safer, and more environmentally friendly.
IMPORTANCE OF AGRICULTURAL TECHNOLOGY
Farmers no longer have to apply water, fertilizers, and pesticides uniformly across entire fields. Instead, they can use the minimum quantities required and target very specific areas, or even treat individual plants differently. Benefits include:
Higher crop productivity
Decreased use of water, fertilizer, and pesticides, which in turn keeps food prices down
Reduced impact on natural ecosystems
Less runoff of chemicals into rivers and groundwater
Increased worker safety
