1. INTRODUCTION
1. Definition
Variable Rate Technology (VRT) refers to a
technology that is used to enable the Variable Rate
Application (VRA) of materials in Precision
agriculture.
VRT describes any technology which enables
producers to vary the rate of crop inputs.
Variable rate application (VRA) in precision
agriculture is an area of technology that focuses on
the automated application of materials to a given
landscape.
The way in which the materials are applied is based
on data that is collected by sensors, GPS and maps.

3. Benefit
Overall, VRA technology is primarily used to both
detect information about a given landscape and to
have a system make decisions based on that
information.
The decisions that are made by the variable rate
application technology systems determine which
materials should be applied to the land.
The benefits of having a VRA system is that it can
help automate parts of the agricultural process.
The more automation and precision that a company
introduces to their operations, the more money they
can save through higher production and efficiency.
Multiple sources present various economic benefits
of VRA highlighted below.

2. VRT Types
Variable rate controls can receive information from
one of three formats that can be used to deal with
spatial variability between paddocks or between
management zones/classes:
- Manual
- Map-based control
- Real time (sensor-based control)
