Abstract
Precision Agriculture (PA) is now becoming the base for rapid development of a nation. So many technologies are used in precision agriculture such as Global Positioning System (GPS), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Sensor Network and Geographical Information System (GIS). This manuscript per the authors will review all the factors that influence the precision agriculture. This article describes the major endeavors in the past of precision agriculture. The noble intention behind this literature review and analogy is to figure out the gap between theoretical research and actual needs of farmers. In order to find out the actual requirements manuscripts per the authors have conducted a questionnaire in Rajasthan State of India. This gap analysis would be helpful for researchers to design an effective and efficient decision support system for irrigation and fertilization can be designed for Indian farmers.

Summary
India is the land of agriculture, where most of the income depends upon agriculture. According to the survey of India Brand Equity Foundation, 58% of total population has agriculture as primary source of livelihood and INR 17.67 Trillion is estimated as contribution in Total GDP of Indian economy. Integration of computer science and information technology can play a magnificent role in improving the quality of agriculture process. This integration is known as Precision Agriculture (McBratney, Ancev, & Bouma, 2005). The first objective of the paper is to review of research work done in the field of precision agriculture, second objective is to compare the research work done in overseas with India, third objective is to analysis the gap between research work published and real implementation of PA by Indian farmers. Followed by Introduction this paper is comprises with component of agriculture, review of past endeavors, broach from literature survey, analysis of gap using questionnaire, conclusion and future work
