Abstract

Intensive technological development requires the agricultural sector to adapt to the requirements of today's economy. To achieve this, agricultural production must seek to minimize costs while increasing production. All this must be achieved while maintaining the principles of sustainable development. To achieve this, precision farming technologies are used. This paper presents the concept of the implementation of precision techniques in a conventional farm. The results obtained allowed us to present a SWOT analysis of the modernization of the farm described above, which showed that the strengths of the system prevail and the opportunities for the farm to develop during its implementation. The initial financial outlays will be returned quickly and significant savings in grain, fertilizers and plant protection products will be achieved, as well as time and health of the farmer.
