51 “Over several thousand acres, the savings are substantial and help pay for precision agriculture upgrades,” the authors say... ” As the USDA points out in its Economic Research Service report “Farm Profits and Adoption of Precision Agriculture,” the average farm operating profits for precision ag adopters was $66 per acre higher than nonadopters, but added that this average came from across different farm sizes and adopters had farms averaging 480 acres larger than nonadopters... However, adoption of variable-rate, which was the costliest precision ag technology the report looked at, was lower than the other technologies examined on all farm sizes... Unlike other precision ag systems, the profitability of variable-rate technology does not change after including the farm size scale effect.

Our precision ag firm has been working on allowing greater control and insight of all the algorithms and models that drive the recommendations. To meld the algorithm and the human instinct, we look at a few things:Rationale — why the algorithm chose a particular recommendationPrecision insight — how does this recommendation affect the specific area to which it is appliedPortfolio overview — how does the individual recommendation incorporate into your priorities across the whole farmPrediction — with different scenarios, what are the expected outcomesWith these elements in hand, you can trust that the process is focused on specific opportunities that fit into broader priorities...
