"Soil survey maps provide an overview of soil variability but may not capture fertility differences or other small-scale and temporary conditions within a field. Precision agriculture instead uses field-specific data from sensors, drones, satellites, and targeted soil sampling. These technologies can create detailed maps for localized tillage, fertilizer, and crop-management decisions."
