In a recent study, researchers have taken a closer look at how precision agriculture (PA) is influencing farm profitability. The study found that PA is indeed helping farmers increase their profits, but the effect is not as dramatic as one might expect. While PA technologies can help increase yields, they can also be expensive and time consuming to implement. As such, the researchers concluded that PA should be viewed from a profitability perspective, meaning that farmers should carefully consider the costs and benefits before investing in any PA technology.
