THE BENEFITS OF MODERN TECHNOLOGY IN AGRICULTILURE

We all know that farming is the backbone of any economy and efforts made towards
improving the farming standards will definitely have a proportionate impact on the economic
growth in the country. So this is the benefits of modern technology in agriculture. The reason
modern farming practices are so important is that without farmers would never be able to supply
the demand for food? Only the benefits is effective water utilization is important for farmers and
the environment innovations such as water conservation practices and hybrid seed technology
help crops to be resilient in drought situations. Modern agriculture practices helps to prevent soil
erosion, since the top fertile soil of the farmlands is removed due to the excessive water supply.
This leads to the loss of nutrient rich soil that hampered the productivity. It also causes the global
warming because the silt of water bodies induces the release of soil carbon from the particulate
organic material.
Today's agriculture routinely was sophisticated technologies such as robots, temperature
and moisture sensors, and GPS technology. These advanced devices and precision agriculture
and robotic system allow business to be more profitable, efficient, safer and more
environmentally friendly. In agriculture using this modern technology farmers no longer have to
apply water, fertilizers, and pesticides uniformly across entire fields, Instead they can we the
minimum quantities required and target very specific areas, or even treat individual plants
differently. Nowadays there are so many benefits of Modern technology such as higher crop
productivity, Decreased use of water, fertilizers and pesticides which in turn keeps food prices
down, its reduced impact on natural ecosystems and also it's less runoff of chemicals into rivers
and groundwater. Modern technology can control the efforts of farmers, they can reduce time
used apply water to the crops while machines are useful in sowing the seed and also they are
used in the transportation. Now farmers can cultivate on more than two acres of land with less
labor, and can cut costs even more when they are looking for a used tractor and other harvesting
technology, versus new equipment. The use of planters and harvesters makes the process so easy.
Modern agricultural technology allows a small number of people to grow vast quantities of food
and fiber in a shortest period of time.
But for almost every benefits of modern technology there are usually problems. The
problem is that technology can be quite fragile GPS system are very reliant metrological
conditions. Sometimes conditions remind us of just how fragile modern technology can be.
When technology delays farming activities, because whatever reason, this can be extremely
frustrating and stressful. Of course it's getting better, and interruptions are also becoming lets
frequent. The value of technology is that it supports decision making on the farm. The problem is
that any technology in inexperienced hands can easily support bad decisions also technology
should be used together with experienced hands, in order to ensure good decision making. It
should never be trusted on its own, but it should not be ignored either. We live in exciting times,
where technologies scope can only be limited by our imagination. As we learn the infinite detail
of our craft as farmers every day, every season, and every lifetime, we will forever find
technologies ready to help and support us in our daily. The razor to apply to farming technology
is simple if it's useful, comical as far as resources, finances or time is concerned, the its probably
worth it. If it helps, then it's always welcome.
