Development of innovation in field of precision agriculture

Abstract

Important changes in technology have brought great progress both in the development of precision and future agriculture. Modern systems have facilitated functioning of the whole process and led to increased yields and benefits for all participants in the chain. Innovations in the field of precision agriculture are recognized as an important lever of development, and as such supported various programs by the EU funds. The importance of this support is reflected in very good results, and constant progress of the sector since its inception in the 80's of the 20th century. The aim of this paper is to show the importance of innovation in precision agriculture to the participants in the process, and for society on the whole.
