This is the first book to present a multidisciplinary look at how technology can not only improve agricultural output, but the economic efficiency of that output as well. As artificial intelligence techniques are being used to increase yield through optimal planting, fertilizing, irrigation, and harvesting, these are only part of the complex picture which must also take into account the economic investment and its optimized return. Presented in three parts, the book looks at the fundamentals of smart agriculture; the economics of the technology in the agricultural marketplace; and a diverse representation of the tools and techniques currently available, and in development.
