An illustrative modular smart implement (100) for precision agriculture includes a chassis (102) having a hydraulic system (150), a control system (200), and articulating tool arms (300) that are adapted to releasably receive one of a tool attachment (400) for working a crop (60) and/or field (50), including precision planting, cultivating, thinning, spraying, harvesting, and/or data collection. A toolbar (106) fixed to the chassis (102) receives and supports the articulating tools arms (300). An alignment member (196) and side shift actuator (176) provide movement of a portion (330, 350, 370, 400) of the tool arms along an axis (90) parallel to a longitudinal axis of the toolbar (106), and a lift actuator (346) provide movement along a vertical axis (92).
