3. Precision agriculture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision_agriculture

   Precision livestock farming supports farmers in real-time by continuously monitoring and controlling animal productivity, environmental impacts, and health and welfare parameters. [37] Sensors attached to animals or to barn equipment operate climate control and monitor animals’ health status, movement and needs.

4. Digital agriculture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_agriculture

   Digital agriculture includes (but is not limited to) precision agriculture. Unlike precision agriculture, digital agriculture impacts the entire agri-food value chain — before, during, and after on-farm production. [6] Therefore, on-farm technologies like yield mapping, GPS guidance systems, and variable-rate application, fall under the ...
