Applications of GPS in Agriculture

In this paper we present the theoretical basis of GPS technology and its use in agriculture. This modern technology is well known due to its wide application in transport however it could have many uses in agriculture. Application such as precise organization of land and measurement of land, tight control of crops type and creation of high precision digitized maps for agriculture purposes are some of the novel ways through which GPS has revolutionize the modern agriculture. As our country strides to align itself to EU policy, agricultural policies will require compliance with European standards, hence GPS technology will become more and more important in achieving those goals (http://www.gps-romania.ro/gps_nav.htm).
