Project Abstract

Abstract
Climate change poses a significant threat to global food security by altering temperature and precipitation patterns, leading to detrimental impacts on crop productivity. To address this challenge, precision agriculture techniques have emerged as a promising approach to enhance crop resilience in the face of changing climatic conditions. This research aims to investigate the potential of precision agriculture techniques in improving crop resilience to climate change. The study focuses on exploring the integration of precision agriculture technologies, such as remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS), and variable rate technology (VRT), to optimize resource management and decision-making processes in crop production systems. Chapter One provides an introduction to the research, presenting the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure, and definitions of key terms. Chapter Two offers a comprehensive literature review that examines existing research on precision agriculture, climate change impacts on crop production, and the potential benefits of integrating precision agriculture techniques to enhance crop resilience. The literature review also explores the application of remote sensing, GIS, and VRT in agriculture and their effectiveness in mitigating climate change effects. Chapter Three outlines the research methodology, detailing the research design, data collection methods, sampling procedures, and data analysis techniques employed in the study. The chapter also discusses the selection criteria for precision agriculture technologies and the implementation strategies for integrating these techniques into crop production systems. Furthermore, it addresses the challenges and limitations associated with adopting precision agriculture practices. In Chapter Four, the research findings are presented and discussed in detail. The chapter analyzes the impact of precision agriculture techniques on crop resilience, productivity, resource efficiency, and environmental sustainability under varying climatic conditions. The discussion also highlights the economic implications and potential barriers to the widespread adoption of precision agriculture technologies in agriculture. Finally, Chapter Five offers a comprehensive conclusion and summary of the research, emphasizing the key findings, implications for crop resilience enhancement, and recommendations for future research and practical applications. The study concludes that precision agriculture techniques have the potential to significantly improve crop resilience to climate change by optimizing resource use, enhancing decision-making processes, and increasing overall agricultural sustainability. The research findings provide valuable insights for policymakers, farmers, and stakeholders in promoting the adoption of precision agriculture practices to mitigate the negative impacts of climate change on crop production systems.
