    Study Notes

    Crop Protection Strategies

    • Crop rotation is a plant protection strategy that involves alternating crops to break disease and pest cycles.
    • Geoinformatics and precision farming techniques are utilized in precision agriculture.
    • The primary focus of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is to minimize economic, health, and environmental risks.

    Biological Control

    • Encouraging natural predators and beneficial organisms is a biological control practice that contributes to plant protection.
    • Cultural practices, such as pruning and sanitation, can also contribute to plant protection.

    STCR Approach in Precision Agriculture

    • The primary focus of the STCR approach is to optimize crop management using precision agriculture techniques.
    • The "S" component of the STCR approach involves utilizing various sensors for real-time data collection.
    • The Control component of the STCR approach aims to automate and optimize crop management decisions.
    • GPS is not a technology incorporated in the STCR approach in precision agriculture.
    • The main objective of integrating robotics in the STCR approach is to automate crop management tasks and improve efficiency.
