Wheat plays a critical role in global food security, yet its production faces significant challenges including yield stagnation and increasing environmental pressures. This study investigates the application of precision agriculture (PA) technologies to enhance wheat productivity while promoting sustainable practices. Key PA tools discussed include remote sensing, GPS-guided equipment, sensor networks, and data-driven decision support systems, all contributing to optimized irrigation, nutrient management, and integrated pest control. A case study from the Indo-Gangetic Plains illustrates tangible improvements in yield and resource efficiency following the implementation of PA strategies. The findings suggest that precision agriculture not only increases the economic return for wheat farmers but also mitigates environmental impacts. Moving forward, the integration of climate-smart approaches, automation, and enhanced farmer training will be pivotal in scaling PA adoption globally.
