The economic profitability of precision farming is as variable as the field conditions. In highly uniform fields, better knowledge of soil and plant parameters is not as likely to result in greater economic return as it is in fields with variable conditions.
In the experimental pivot return and costs were compared in both TF and PF as illustrated in Table 9. Although costs of applying PF were much higher than TF, total returns increased from 472,773.0 at TF to 784,675.5 LE at PF (65.97%) at PF. The economic profitability (returns-costs) recorded 238,298.42 LE for TF and 284,133.39 LE for PF representing an increase of (29.89%).
