Plausibility of Precision Agriculture as a COVID-19-Compliant Digital Technology for Food Security and Agricultural Productivity in Nigeria
The chapter discusses the plausibility of precision agriculture (PA) as a COVID-19-compliant digital technology to tackle the challenges of food insecurity and low agricultural productivity in Nigeria. In all the countries where PA has been adopted, it includes a wide array of disruptive technologies such as global positioning system (GPS), satellite imagery, monitoring control systems (MCS) using an intelligent sensor, artificial plant growing technique (APGT), soilless cultivation system (SCS), drones/unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), artificial intelligence (AI), internet of things (IoT), robotics, variable rate technology, GPS-based soil sampling, and telematics. Adopting the PA in commercial agriculture will improve food production, increase food exports, gross domestic products (GDPs), and strengthen the actualization of sustainable food security. Ultimately, this chapter concludes with policy suggestions for mitigating the rising trends in food insecurity, food inflation, and low agricultural productivity.
