With the increase of the population appeared the need to increase the agricultural production. However, this desideratum comes with a series of requirements that are somewhat contradictory: * reducing the use of pesticides; * reducing the quantities of agricultural fertilizers by optimizing their use; * the use of more environmentally friendly technologies; * cost reduction. Thus appeared the concept of "precision agriculture" that meets the requirements listed. This concept involves processing a large volume of digitized data. The data must be purchased with appropriate means, processed with specialized software and interpreted by qualified specialists. The software also generates the data necessary for the practical application, on farms, of the measures necessary to achieve a precision agriculture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
