However, the legal framework for these future-oriented, emission-free tools has yet to be defined in Germany. They are also able to remove individual weeds. They are cloud-controlled and can be used to establish a specific sowing and fertilisation pattern. Field robots are excellently suited to the gentle treatment of soil and plants because they are so lightweight. Data is available relatively quickly and appropriate measures can be taken. Aerial images taken using drones provide valuable information about fields, including for example soil quality, unwanted plants and plant diseases. Attributes such as “smaller”, “more intelligent”, “more efficient” are also becoming more important, especially for medium-sized agricultural enterprises. © Oliver Martin, FarmBlick, Kraichtalįuture concepts will not just be about size and volume. They reduce tractor turnaround time as well as lane overlapping. RTK steering systems that are used to accurately determine position coordinates by satellite navigation methods, and manage agricultural land more efficiently. Real time kinematic (RTK) steering systems. Singleimage.big_view Precision farming: Agricultural machine with automated satelliled-controlled steering systems. Modern differentiated farming methods enable the management of spatial and temporal variability within plots of land. Examples include electronic devices for sensor-assisted soil assessment, the automated monitoring of free-ranging animals on pastures and the targeted control of agricultural machinery.
What do they mean? “Precision farming” is the targeted management of agricultural land using smart electronics. Two terms crop up at regular intervals: "precision farming" and "smart farming".
Therefore, the success of a given product is based on a triangle formed by the farmer, technology and the service- and consulting concept.
Agricultural work needs to be organised into efficient stages to ensure a good yield.

A plant sensor mounted at the front of the tractor measures the wheat's nitrogen requirements and adjusts the fertiliser application rate by the spreader mounted at the rear of the tractor.
