New market for as-applied maps?
Precision agriculture (PA) is a farming management concept based on observing, measuring and responding to inter and intra-field variability in potatoes and other crops. By nature, it is data-driven, and ultimately a digital copy of a farm. As-applied maps will become more important for farmers.
