" In summary, the advantages of precision spraying systems include the ability to:
1. Massively reduce overall chemical use (especially glyphosate).
2. Target hard to control weeds with higher rates or more expensive herbicides without 'blanket' spraying the whole field and last but not least.
3. Slow down the development of herbicide resistance through herbicide rotation and/or tank-mixing."

Here is a great article from Purdue Ag. Here's the summary about 'big data': Unfortunate truth #1: Data can't assist you in making a decision towards an end that you have not yet defined. You have to know where you want to go or what you want to do before you can hope to make decisions that get you there.
Unfortunate truth #2: You can no longer do whatever you want to do, what feels right or what your gut says to do with your data; you may now have to do things you might not necessarily want to do.
Unfortunate truth #3: You can't let the fear of a bad outcome stop you from making the right decision. You have to separate the outcome from the decision.
Unfortunate truth #4: You must identify questions for which there are no answers, or, for which the answer simply doesn't matter. If you're going to invest time, effort and money into data-driven decision making, you need to prioritize which decisions are deserving of your attention. https://agribusiness.purdue.edu/consumer_corner/dont-eat-random-mushrooms

"Karan’s current research focus is on breeding for grain protein content stability using genomic selection and high throughput phenotyping tools. He’s also focusing on identifying wheat lines having quicker canopy closure and cold tolerance to compete with weeds in the Pacific Northwest. Furthermore, he is applying machine and deep learning models for predicting grain yield and use quality traits and various other agronomic traits in the wheat breeding program."Â

"We are on the cusp of the marriage of tech and ag that will revolutionize weed control and change the rules for modern farming. Ag-engineers are refining imagery identification systems that will soon be able to differentiate grassy weeds from grassy crops (the proverbial holy grail of imagery analysis). ... Spray drones are already being deployed for agricultural applications and their load limitations are offset by their ability to make precise spot applications. Other technologies in development include precision flamers, lasers, abraders, or cultivators which can replace or augment herbicides."
