dc.descriptionPrecision agriculture (PA) technology has been on the market for almost 15 years. Global Positioning Systems (GPS), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), yield monitors, variable rate technologies (VRT) and other spatial management technologies are being used by farmers worldwide, but questions remain about the profitability of the technology and its future. This paper summarizes: 1) data on worldwide adoption of PA technology,2) review of PA economics studies and 3) implications for Brazil. Worldwide adoption estimates are based on reports by an international network of collaborators. The PA profitability summary goes beyond previous reviews by including a large number of publications from the last three years, a more detailed breakdown of results by technology type and new technologies. For Brazil, low land prices, low wage rates, focus on commodity crops, and the high cost of imported technology would tend to discourage PA adoption, especially for the classic PA technologies like VRT.
