Abstract

The main driver for the precision farming market worldwide is cost optimization and increased yields. It is these two factors that basically induce farmers to introduce precision farming into their farms and rebuild their work for new technologies. The article examines the practical aspects of application of precision farming in Russia, the existing problems and possible solutions. The most important and urgent problem of domestic farmers in the introduction of precision farming technologies into the economy is the financial aspect of the issue. Most Russian farmers are ready to introduce the latest technologies in their fields, but lack of funds and fear of taking on financial risks are an obstacle to innovation. On the other hand, an acceptable price, along with a high level of support from the supplier and clear and accessible operating rules, can play a decisive role in a farmer’s decision to purchase a particular solution for use on his farm.
