Like exactly how much water, how much fertilizer, etc is just enough for a plant. This is necessary to keep costs down and use materials to its maximum. For example, you have been giving a plant 6 litres of water but with precision farming, you can find out that a plant only needs only 1 litre of water to thrive healthily.
