Modern Problems of Introduction of Precision Farming Elements

Abstract

Currently, the digitalization of the economy in the Russian Federation has a special role. Agriculture is one of the main sectors of the economy that ensures the country's food security has been actively developed in this direction in recent years. The introduction of digital tools into agricultural production is going on everywhere, but at the same time it is used in every farm partially or the existing elements are not related to each other. In all cases, the introduction of precision farming elements is aimed at reducing costs, which ultimately should lead to economic benefits. At the same time, an economic entity should not forget about the most important thing – to benefit from preserving and improving the existing state of ecosystems subject to anthropogenic impact. The introduction of precision farming in agriculture is impossible without high-quality information and technical support. The paper considers the current state and problems of the introduction of precision farming elements. The main problem, at present, is the lack of complete and reliable information about the qualitative and quantitative condition of land in agriculture, which affects their level and efficiency of use in production. One of the ways to organize the rational use of land is to take into account the agro-landscape features of the territory when introducing precision farming.
