The first wave of the precision agricultural revolution came in the forms of satellite and aerial imagery, weather prediction, variable rate fertilizer application, and crop health indicators. [19] The second wave aggregates the machine data for even more precise planting, topographical mapping, and soil data.
An example of a multiple disease/pest forecasting system is the EPIdemiology, PREdiction, and PREvention (EPIPRE) system developed in the Netherlands for winter wheat that focused on multiple pathogens. [6] USPEST.org graphs risks of various plants diseases based on weather forecasts with hourly resolution of leaf wetness.
