摘要：尽管精准农业被吹捧为提高农场收益和环境质量，但它的普及程度并不像预期的那样广泛。本文的目的是更新和比较安大略省精准农业技术的采用率。地理服务技术是被采用最多的技术，2017年至2019年期间，采用人数有所增加。调查范围扩大到包括全国各地的作物投入品供应商。提高精准农业技术的采用率需要克服障碍，特别是降低成本和提供已证明的价值。
Abstract: Although precision agriculture is touted to enhance both farm returns and environmental quality, its perceived uptake is not as widespread as would be expected. The objective of this paper was to update and compare the adoption rates for precision agriculture technologies in Ontario. Geographic service technologies were the most adopted technology and showed an increase in adoption between 2017 and 2019. The survey was extended to include crop input suppliers across the country. Increasing adoption rates for precision agriculture technologies requires overcoming barriers, specifically reducing the cost and providing demonstrated value.
