Description

This paper explores a structure of intelligence to precision agriculture with academic activities in the world. Studies on precision agriculture involved three kinds of overlooking approaches: a story for science to analyze and understand the natural resource variability, a story for technology to develop such new sensors and variable-rate applicators, and a story for business to make links with foods markets. The trans-disciplinary approaches have been due to variability or diversity of circumstances and constraints of agriculture in respective countries and regions, followed by activities of research, development and extension. Five research modes have been experienced in research and development of precision agriculture, and cost-driven company-based US model and value-driven community-based Japan model come out on the final stage. Two models for precision agriculture require kinds of social experiments associated with a new academic paradigm trans-disciplinary based on agricultural informatics.
