Agricultural Business and Policy Extension

Agricultural Business and Policy Extension serves rural Missouri by helping farms, agribusinesses and communities understand their opportunities and challenges to make informed decisions.

Precision Agriculture

Precision agriculture merges new technologies born of the information age with a mature agricultural industry. It is an integrated crop management system that attempts to match the kind and amount of inputs with actual crop needs for small areas within a farm field. This goal is not new, but newly available technologies allow the concept of precision agriculture to be realized in a practical production setting.
