Точное земледелие позволяет сократить затраты на внесение удобрений, семена, средства защиты растений и горюче-смазочные материалы в среднем на 20%. В настоящее время на рынке Республики Казахстан предлагают также различные элементы системы точного земледелия, как системы параллельного и автоматического вождения, контроля высева семян, картирования урожайности, дифференцированного внесения минеральных удобрений и СЗР, GPS-трекер с датчиком уровня топлива. При этом не до конца изучены возможности получения эффективности от применения систем точного земледелия в определенных условиях их использования. В статье приведены результаты сравнительных испытаний опрыскивателя самоходного на химической прополке посевов пшеницы и льна в условиях Северного Казахстана. Методика проведения сравнительных испытаний основывалась на требованиях государственных стандартов. В процессе проведения сравнительных испытаний определялись их условия, агротехнические, энергетические, эксплуатационно-технологические и экономические показатели опрыскивателя самоходного, оборудованного системой автоматического вождения, и без системы. Использование системы GPS навигации и автоматического управления на химпрополке зерновых и масличных культур способствует увеличению производительности на 14,6 %, снижению удельных энергозатрат на 8 %, расхода топлива на 17 %, а расхода рабочей жидкости на 14,5 %. При этом совокупные затраты денежных средств снижаются на 9 %, годовая экономия совокупных затрат денежных средств составляет 6562,6 тыс. тенге (1093,7 тыс. руб.). Precision agriculture reduces the cost for fertilizers, seeds, plant protection products, and petrol, oil, and lubricants by an average of 20%. Currently, the market of the Republic of Kazakhstan also offers various elements of precision agriculture systems, such as parallel and automatic guidance systems, seed control, yield mapping, differentiated application of mineral fertilizers and plant protection agents, and a GPS-tracker with a fuel level sensor. At the same time, the possibilities of obtaining efficiency from the use of precision agriculture systems in certain conditions of their use have not been fully studied yet. The article presents the results of comparative tests of a self-steering sprayer for chemical weeding of wheat and flax crops in Northern Kazakhstan. The method of conducting comparative tests was based on the requirements of state standards. When conducting comparative tests, their conditions, agrotechnical, energetic, operational, technological and economic indicators of a self-steering sprayer equipped with an automatic guidance system and without a system were determined. The use of the GPS navigation and automatic guidance systems in the chemical weeding of grain and oil crops increases productivity by 14.6 %, reduces specific energy consumption by 8 %, fuel consumption by 17 %, and working fluid consumption by 14.5 %. In such a case, total money costs are reduced by 9 %, and the annual saving of total money costs amounts to 6562.6 tenges (1093.7 rubles).

Over the last years, existing technologies have been applied to agricultural environments, resulting in new precision agriculture systems. Some of the multiple profits of developing new agricultural technologies and applications include the cost reduction around the building and deployment of them, together with more energy-efficient consumption. Therefore, agricultural precision systems focus on developing better, easier, cheaper, and overall more efficient ways of handling agricultural monitoring and actuation. To achieve this vision, we use a set of technologies such as Wireless Sensor Networks, Sensors devices, Internet of Things, or data analysis. More specifically, in this study, we proposed a combination of all these technologies to design and develop a prototype of a precision agriculture system for medium and small agriculture plantations that highlights two major advantages: efficient energy management with self-charging capabilities and a low-cost policy. For the development of the project, several prototype nodes were built and deployed within a sensor network connected to the cloud as a self-powered system. The final target of this system is, therefore, to gather environment data, analyze it, and actuate by activating the watering installation. An analysis of the exposed agriculture monitoring system, in addition to results, is exposed in the paper.
