The international market for precision agriculture is complex with different farming practices and equipment for each country and region of the world. It can be a challenge to adapt U.S. products to meet the needs of the farmers in different parts of the world. And as many countries face the challenge of producing enough food for its growing population (including the United States), precision farming and its benefits will continue to play an important role in farming operations.
