1. Preparation of a precision ripping plan using manual vertical penetrometer measurementsLarge weight power engines and tools used in agriculture significantly contribute to the formation of compacted and thickening layers starting from the soil surface. There are suitable deep ripping technologies to eliminate harmful soil compaction, which are extremely energy and cost demanding. In precision agriculture, it is possible to treat spatially delimited unfavourable soil patches. The bulk density (g/cm3) of the soil was calculated from the soil resistance and moisture content...

2. A cheap alternative to data management and creating of yield maps of small-plot field experimentsLong-term field trials provide an opportunity to examine the long-term effects of crop production factors and the effect of different crop years can also be analysed. In the long-term field trial, spatial representation of the data belonging to each plot might be necessary for the purpose of soil heterogeneity analysis, working hypothesis, or even presentation. Researchers dealing with long-term field trials usually store the measurement data for a given experiment in Excel or in a database of... P. Ragán, T. Rátonyi, A. Széles, P. Fejér, I. Bácskai, E.

3. Soil mapping with the VERIS U3 soil scanner in a precision farm in HungaryCurrently, field crop production faces constant challenges. Extreme climatic conditions, deteriorating circumstances on the field have a negative impact on the quantity and quality of available yields, and the ever-changing agro-economic environment makes the profitability of the sector uncertain. Precision crop production means site-specific agricultural cultivation tied to geographical coordinates. Modern strip tillage technology based on precision technology for crops with wide row spacing... P. Ragán, E. Harsányi, T. Rátonyi, A. Széles, P. Fejér, I. Bácskai |
4. A review on Sensor based robotics agriculture: Improving traditional Agriculture PracticesAgribot could be a mechanism designed to reduce the labor of farmers by increasing the speed and accuracy of the work. Elementary functions concerned in farming i.e. plowing the sphere, sowing of seeds and covering the seeds with soil. Agribot is associate degree autonomous mechanism that provides the power for choices for offered techniques. Fruit Picker robots, autonomous tractor sprayers, this... S.C. Karad, G.U. Shinde, P.

5. Determinants of the adoption of an intelligent monitoring system and effects on farms performance in TunisiaConcidering the observation of the rise of Computerized Management Software Packages and intelligent monitoring in a path of modernization of agricultural techniques, we questioned the main factors influencing the decision to adopt management software, farmers’ perception of these management tools and their impact on farm performance. Referring to a theoretical framework focused on innovation and the adoption of technologies in agriculture, we triggered the hypothesis of research... J. Ben nasr, H. Chiboub, M. Msaddak |
6. Rainwater Harvesting and Nutrient Intensification in Maize-Legume Farming Systems in Semi-Arid ZimbabweAgricultural productivity in Zimbabwe is declining mainly due to climate change and inherently poor soil fertility. The situation is worsened by the high cost of fertilizers beyond the reach of many smallholder farmers. In response to these challenges, most smallholder farmers are implementing either rainwater harvesting (RWH) or integrated soil fertility management (ISFM). This study sought to investigate the role of integrating the tied-contour RWH (TC-RWH) technique and ISFM on soil moisture,... E. Mutsamba-magwaza, D. Nyamayevu, G. Nyamadzawo, R. Mandumbu, I.

7. Optimizing Maize Production Through Minimum Tillage in Conservation Agriculture Systems: Evidence from Malawi's LowlandsSustainable intensification in agricultural systems has been implemented and promoted across Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) as a strategy for addressing low crop productivity often resulting in widespread food and nutritional insecurity. This study sought to assess the productivity potential of conservation agriculture (CA) cropping systems and associated crop establishment techniques in terms of grain, protein and energy yield. An on-station trial was implemented at Chitala Research Station in Malawi... D. Nyamayevu, I. Nyagumbo, W. Liang , R. Li |
