The benefits of precision farming using GIS are equally felt by all sectors related to it, from the farmers themselves to the consumers and even the environment itself. Aside from maximizing the yield while minimizing cost for farmers, precision farming using GIS is also beneficial in that it enables the farmer to make better decisions and to be more knowledgeable about their crops. It is beneficial to the consumer in that the yield product of the crops that have been grown using the precision farming is higher quality since farmers were able to tend to it specifically instead of treating the entire farmland as a whole (Pfister, 1998). It is beneficial to the environment because it reduces the amount of agro-chemicals needed for farming by identifying the areas that do need the chemical and at what level is sufficient and thus reducing the overall farming footprint (Nemenyi, Mesterhazi, Pecze, & Stepan, 2003).
