Abstract
Smart Farms Technology
Smart Farms or Precision Farms are considered as innovative agricultural farms of the digital age. Several information technologies with wireless Internet connections implemented in the farms are the Global Positioning System (GPS), Geographic Information System (GIS), remote-sensing, proximal-sensing, Variable Rate Technology (VRT), the crop model, and the Decision Support System (DSS). Besides transferring software-analyzed data, these information technologies are for data collections, data diagnostics, data analysis, precision field operations, and evaluations. Five operations of the farms were: soil mapping, irrigation and fertilization, pest control, harvesting, cost and profits, and plant planning for the next season. The results showed that the farms had brought about effective use of input factors, productivity and quality improvement, reducing environmental impacts, costs, labor costs, time, and paved the way for sustainable and environmentally friendly agriculture.
