In my precision agriculture research, e.g. remote sensing, soil and crop sensors, soil property mapping, and drones are used. The goal is to generate knowledge for efficient agriculture. Decision support systems are important for rapid and effective transfer of research to end users.

Presentation

Since the early 1990s, I have consistently worked with research, external collaboration, and activities in the field of precision agriculture, while also focusing on methods to translate research into practical applications. I have initiated or been actively involved in the development of several decision support systems used in Sweden and internationally, including CropSAT (www.cropsat.com; a satellite image-based system for precision fertilization) and Markdata (www.markdata.se; a Swedish system based on digital soil maps of arable land in Sweden for precision soil management). I represent Sweden in the International Society for Precision Agriculture (ISPA) and serve on the board of the European Conference for Precision Agriculture (ECPA).
