"Push button agriculture" has been a reality for some time, it involves the use of high technology robotics with machine vision, sensors, electronic controls, and satellite guidance. Push button systems include a series of autonomous/semi-autonomous farm vehicles, contraptions, gadgets, and processors. The goal of push button agriculture is to lessen the burden on human physical labor and personal time to accomplish several farm operations. This technology, while decreasing the need for human labor, can also be applied for greater efficiency, greater energy savings, lower costs, and better crop yield, as well as fewer adverse environmental effects. This new book covers three main types of agricultural systems: the use of robotics, the use of drones (unmanned aerial vehicles), and the use of satellite-guided precision farming methods. Some of these are well refined and are currently in use, while others are in need of refinement and have yet to become popular. The technological systems described address soil fertility, climate, precipitation, and other factors associated with agriculture. Robotics, mainly ground-based robots, can be used to enhance farm productivity, reduce dependence on human labor involvement En crop fields, and perform farm operations more methodically-accurately, briskly, and efficiently. Drones are already being used in agricultural farms around the world. They provide crucial data about farms, such as information on soil fertility and moisture variations, crop growth, weed infestation, soil erosion, etc, as well as photos depicting natural resources. Satellite-guided farming, now being practiced in several agrarian regions of world, is helpful in attaining precision during farming. Activities such as planting seeds of different crop species/genotypes, application of fertilizer-based nutrients based on digitized data about soil fertility, weeding, irrigation, and harvesting grains have been accomplished using satellite techniques. Satellite guidance is also known to reduce soil deterioration, reduce loss of fertilizers to the vadose zone, and avoid ground water contamination. There area range of farm vehicles, ground robots, and drones that are guided by connection to GPS systems/satellites. Push Button Agriculture: Robotics, Drones, Satellite-Guided Soil and Crop Management is a valuable source of information on this developing field for those involved with agriculture and farming and agricultural engineering. The book is also applicable as a textbook for students and a reference for faculty.
