SOFTWARE ENGINEERING TECHNIQUES APPLIED TO AGRICULTURAL SYSTEMS

This book is an effort to bring the appHcation of new technologies into the
domain of agriculture. Historically, agriculture has been relatively behind the
industrial sector in using and adapting to new technologies. One of the
reasons for the technological gap between industrial and agricultural sectors
could be the modest amounts of investments made in the field of agriculture
compared to the impressive numbers and efforts the industrial sector invests
in new technologies. Another reason could be the relatively slow process of
updating the student's curriculum with new technologies in university
departments that prepare our future specialists in the field of agriculture.
