Using Remote Sensed Imagery in Agriculture for Monitoring and Input Efficiency

Event Information

If you would like to increase the profitability and sustainability of your farm this webinar will be of benefit to you.

While remote sensing technology has been in use in agriculture since the late 1980s, it’s only been during the past decade that it’s become mainstream due to technological advancements and the adoption of other, broader technologies such as mobile devices and access to high-speed internet.

Attend this webinar to gain a better understanding of how this technology works and the many rewards you could reap from its adoption. Our presenters will draw on their expertise to explain how this innovation can save money and inform decision making that leads to increased yields, optimised chemical input and ultimately a more sustainable approach to farming.

Case studies will also feature to learn how others in the farming community have implemented the technology and the impact it’s made on their businesses.

Book your place today to discover how your farm can take advantage of this smart solution.
