Development of Precision Agriculture Technologies to Improve Crop Productivity and Mitigate Environmental Risks: A Pathway to Sustainable Agriculture

对农业投入品(化肥、农药、灌溉等)进行精确管理是农业生产系统面临的最重大挑战之一。目前，马铃薯田内的作物管理做法是统一实施的，对土壤、作物、潜在产量、气候和地形特征的巨大差异没有给予足够的重视。均匀应用不仅增加了生产成本，还对环境造成了严重威胁(增加了向水体的养分径流、地下/地下水淋溶、挥发和温室气体排放)。这种情况强调了增加作物产量、盈利能力和环境保护的必要性，但如果对田地进行统一管理，就无法实现这一点。

Precise management of agricultural inputs (fertilizer, pesticides, irrigation, etc.) is one of the most significant challenges that the agricultural production system is facing. Currently, crop management practices within potato fields are implemented uniformly with inadequate attention being given to substantial variations in soil, crop, potential yield, climate and topographic features. Uniform applications not only increase the cost of production but also pose a serious threat to the environment (increased nutrient runoff to water bodies, sub-surface/groundwater leaching, volatilization and greenhouse gas emissions). This situation emphasizes the need for increased crop production, profitability and environmental protection, but this cannot be achieved if the fields are managed uniformly.
