Precision farming is a very fast developing form of the Farm Management System, especially in crop production, in whole world and in our country as well. There, it is adopted since the second half of the 90s of the 20th century. The system of data collection, analysis, presentation and application of information in precision farming is reaching over the possibilities of their use by common farmers or agricultural companies. Service companies in this case play a very important role as an executor of exacting analysis, data collection and their presentation. Management zones present simplification of the difficult operations and recommendations including economic calculations for the common user involved in the precision farming management.
