About the Application of Electrical Conductivity in Precision Agriculture

P058 ABOUT THE APPLICATION OF ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY IN PRECISION AGRICULTURE SUMMARY 1 The introduction of precision agriculture requires a teamwork of various branches. Modern agriculture is accompanied by soil sciences and by geophysics to be looking for information about the soil qualities. Especially the electrical and electromagnetic methods can deliver powerful tools for mapping large areas and for getting information about soil properties. In the last few years we received electrical conductivity (EC) maps of more than 2000 ha. This gave us the opportunity to compare electrical soil properties with agronomical used values. In addition we carried out laboratory studies
