He explained that EGNOS is the starting point for precision farming for many farmers in Europe, as it is easy to use, there are no subscription fees and accuracy is sufficient for many applications. Nevertheless, he pointed out that as precision farming evolves there are more demanding applications that require higher accuracy than is provided by this service.
