Additional notes

This technology has been conducted in several provinces in China, such as in Shandong for wheat "one spray three defenses", in Hainan for corn "fall armyworm" prevention and control, and in Heilongjiang for rice pest control. However, it is also applicable globally., This paper doesn't clearly mention which organization specifically conducted this project. However, the combination of sensor and GPS technologies in precision agriculture is a comprehensive project, it involves many professionals in various fields, so it more likely to be a professional organization.
