Abstract

With the advances in electronic and information technologies, various sensing systems have been developed for specialty crop production around the world. Accurate information regarding the spatial variability in fields is very important for precision farming of certain crops. However this variability is affected by a number of factors such as crop yield, soil property and nutrients, crop nutrients, crop canopy volume and biomass, water content and pest conditions (disease, weeds and insects). These factor can be measured using various types of sensors and instruments. Sensing techniques for soil properties and nutrients are most advanced and can provide the data required for better crop production. This paper presents a review of how these sensing technologies are used for precision agriculture and crop management.
