Precision Ag
Technology Meets Farming
The precision ag industry today utilizes GPS technologies and a variety of computerized monitoring to provide data and help ag producers respond precisely to conditions that impact output. These technologies are making a big impact on increasing yields each year.
Positioned for growth, only 27% of U.S. farms or ranches currently utilize precision ag practices for crop or livestock management.
South Dakota State University has also become the first land grant university to offer both a Bachelor of science degree and a minor in precision agriculture.
