In addition, the book reviews its history - establishing the background on the various processes and applications ? describes the current status, and offers insight into the future technology of satellite farming in India. Introducing processes and applications based on a global scale, the book reveals how precision agriculture can be used in large-scale agriculture, community agriculture, and diversified farming. It includes site-specific information from a variety of information sources for planning, planting, growing, and harvesting agricultural crops. It also presents a new concept based on the control system theory that can be used to formulate systematic methods for more effective precision crop production. Precision agriculture when properly integrated into the crop production process, can greatly improve overall production and sustainability. . 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aSoil science 606 $aEnvironmental health 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEnvironmental Management 606 $aSoil Science 606 $aEnvironmental Health 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aSoil science. 615 0$aEnvironmental health. 615 14$aAgriculture. 615 24$aSustainability. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aSoil Science. 615 24$aEnvironmental Health. 676 $a630 676 $a631 700 $aAhmad$b Latief$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0835535 702 $aMahdi$b Syed Sheraz$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910311938803321 996 $aSatellite Farming$92529408 997 $aUNINA
