2. 1. Why are you here?
A. I am heavy into PAg and ready to take
the next step.
B. I am interested in PAg and ready to go!
C. I am interested in PAg but still โsitting
on the fenceโ!
D. Just getting a first look at what it is.
E. Bored and no where else to go!
4. Precision Ag Defined!
๏ The definition is elusive!
๏ PAg can be anything in ag that uses
technology and data, ie milking robots,
precision feeding via data feedback, etc
6. What is Precision Ag in a Cropping
Context?
๏ Precision agriculture is the ability to manage
by the square meter instead of the square
mi/km using gps positioning and guidance
๏ In some ways its going back to Granpaโs day
when he knew every nuance of his 100 acres.
๏ Today, PAg uses data and technology to
supply that knowledge on much larger
landscapes and at high resolutions
7. Think of PAg as Overlapping Layers of
Knowledge from which to make the
best decisions.

The Goal of Precision Ag!
๏ Exploit variation in the field
๏ Temporal (time)
๏ Within and between seasons
(yield varies)
๏ Spatial (space)
๏ Elevation, distance, slope
Shape, etc
11. The Outcomes of Precision Ag!
๏ Optimized productivity
๏ Reduce environmental footprint
๏ Better Record Keeping
๏ Enhanced decision making
๏ Improve traceability
๏ Enhance marketing of farm products
๏ Improve lease arrangements and relationship with
landlords
๏ Enhance the inherent quality of farm products (e.g.
protein level in bread-flour wheat)
12. 2. How are you making decisions today?
A. Yield goal
B. Know my fields inside out
C. Advisors advice

E. Donโt think about it, just do it!
13. 3. Why do you want to implement
Precision Ag?
A. Save money
B. Better record keeping
C. Optimize production
D. Reduce environmental footprint
E. All of the above, or at least 3 of them

45. Elevation
๏ RTK (gathers x,y,z(elevation) coordinates)
๏ Swath Width
๏ Narrower with more topography

47. Profile curvature affects the acceleration
and deceleration of the flow of water
down the slope and therefore influences
the erosion and deposition of soil and
water.
Look at these edges
to determine shape A
is convex. B is
concave, c is planar or
straight
Across Slope (Planform): A is diverging, B is converging,
and C is planar or straight
Figure 6a) curvature examples for: concave v.s convex v.s. planar (flat & straight down) and
8b) slope as: diverging v.s. converging v.s planar (straight) โ all of which affect the way
water and soil due to tillage practices have moved across the field over time.
Look at these edges to
determine shape
Downslope (Profile): A is convex, B is
concave, and C is planar or straight
Planform curvature relates to the
convergence (accumulation) or
divergence (loss) of flow across a
surface.
