The use of new technologies in the field is increasingly present studies on the specific sensor applications, in the use of georeferencing with yield maps. The aim of this paper is to present to the scientific community a categorization in the production of scientific papers of the last ten years of the Professor Dr. José Paulo Molin, related to Precision Agriculture, through a search on his Lattes Curriculum, in his academic research and contributions in the area around Agricultural Engineering in Brazil. As discussion and results presented to a bibliographic review of Molin work, quantified in tables and figures, and the approach of the analyzed articles. It is evident the studies of the behavior of optical sensors to generate yield maps, with the use of embedded electronic technologies, and interventions in the soil in no-tillage to crops such as cotton, corn and sugar cane. It concludes with a review of Molin, his contributions and assistance to researchers in the academic field, with the verification of the spatial and temporal variability of quality and productivity in the field, and the aid to fertilizer recommendation, especially to nitrogen. It was verified positively the correct distribution of nutrients in the field with the work of yield maps.
