Introduction of new and improved technologies will speed adoption of site-specific management practices. Integrated production systems of the future will likely include more sophisticated monitoring and control devices, remote sensing, greater use of consultants and field scouts, and interactive data management systems. Professional managers and consultants will play a major role in helping producers organize data and make management decisions. Technologies that save time, result in greater profitability, and reduce environmental risks will be rapidly adopted by producers. Future opportunities will include harvesting and marketing schemes to preserve the identify of products that have special characteristics. Remote sensing will undoubtedly play a major role in helping make site-specific management decisions and in assessing world-wide marketing opportunities.
