"Balancing the inputs and outputs on a farm is
fundamental to its success and profi tability. The
ability of GIS to analyze and visualize agricultural
environments and workfl ows has proven to be very
benefi cial to those involved in the farming industry.
From mobile GIS in the fi eld to the scientifi c
analysis of production data at the farm manager's
offi ce, GIS is playing an increasing role in
agriculture production throughout the world by
helping farmers increase production, reduce costs,
and manage their land more effi ciently."

A shapefi le is a digital vector storage format for
storing geometric location and associated attribute
