Precision agriculture

Leverage precise and standard positioning  to increase agricultural productivity and protect the environment.

Today’s farms are more than fields. They are intelligent ecosystems. Precision agriculture transforms traditional farming into a data-driven, spatially aware system where every task is optimized based on exact location, real-time conditions, and operational context.

At the heart of this transformation is GNSS-enabled positioning, enabling location-aware operations that increase yields, reduce resource inputs, and support environmental sustainability.

With 2.5 cm GNSS precision, farmers can achieve 5–15% improvements in productivity per hectare, critical in a world facing rising food demand and shrinking arable land¹.
u-blox helps farmers achieve:

• Maximum yield potential: Unlock cm-level accuracy for smart seeding, automated planting, targeted spraying, and optimized harvesting, enabling consistent results across fields.
• Enhanced sustainability: Leverage precision GNSS technology to optimize fertilizer application, irrigation efficiency, and fuel consumption, reducing environmental impact while supporting climate-smart farming practices.
• Economic benefits: Achieve measurable ROI by lowering operational costs and boosting profits through flexible subscription models, monthly contracts, and usage-based payment plans tailored to critical periods such as planting and harvesting.
