Precision Farming – Basics

Welcome to the Precision Farming Basics course, developed collaboratively by the AGRI-DIGITAL GROWTH project partners to provide a comprehensive introduction to the principles and technologies driving modern precision agriculture. After completing this course, you will gain a clear understanding of how digital technologies, automation, data-driven approaches, and intelligent systems are transforming agricultural practices towards greater efficiency, sustainability, and informed decision-making.

You will explore the foundations of precision farming, including site-specific management, data collection, and decision-support systems, as well as key enabling technologies such as mechatronics, sensors, electrification, robotics, blockchain, data security, cloud computing, and Artificial Intelligence. The course covers how these technologies are integrated into agricultural systems to optimise resources, improve productivity, enhance sustainability, and support the transition towards smart and connected farming.
