This video was developed to introduce basic precision agricultural concepts. The videos are designed to accompany the “Introduction to Precision Agriculture” educational manual. This manual was developed to target the educators associated with middle school and informal groups, including 4-H, Future Farmers of America (FFA) clubs, etc.

This video covers basic agricultural concepts, including what plants require in order to grow, an understanding of terminology, and an introduction to basic inputs (including soil enhancements), a discussion of pH, and other soil and plant issues. There are two other videos in associated with this series, including:
