Precision farming, by contrast, combines sensors, robots, GPS, mapping tools and data-analytics software to customize(量身定制)the care that plants receive without increasing labor. Robot-mounted sensors and camera-equipped drones (无

This advanced technology may also help to improve crop nutrition.Farmers do not universally welcome precision agriculture for various reasons, such as high equipment costs and lack of access to the Internet. The technology may bring great challenges to experienced farmers who are not good at computers. And large systems will
