THE NEED TO DEVELOP PRECISION AGRICULTURE IN THE CONTEXT OF CLIMATE CHANGE


Vasile BOTNARI1

Abstract. Analysis of agricultural practices applied at different stages of development shows numerous examples when, under conditions of concentration and intensification of agricultural production, deviations of technological parameters from optimal values lead either to a sharp decrease in yield, or to a decrease in the quality of production, environmental pollution with chemical compounds associated with a decrease in soil fertility and labor productivity. In the context of climate change, the development of precision agriculture has gained wider distribution due to the performance of information technologies, high-speed Internet and the possibility of obtaining information in digital format about the condition of agricultural land and crops from a distance. Thus, precision agriculture presents a comprehensive system of high-performance agricultural management, which includes methods of rotation and positioning of agricultural crops, complete information matrices, information evaluation systems and development of technological decisions.

Keywords: Precision agriculture, technology, information, changes climate.
