Meet the newest K-State Agronomy Extension Specialist! Deepak Joshi joined Kansas State University in August as the Precision Agriculture Extension Specialist based in Manhattan. His responsibilities in this role include extension, outreach, and applied research related to precision agriculture and modern technologies in Kansas.
The advancement of precision agriculture technology, such as drones, can provide an efficient solution for early-season field scouting. In contrast to traditional scouting, drone scouting can be less time-consuming, have more thorough field coverage, and be less labor intensive.
