1. Precision Farming Technology to Increase Soil and Crop Productivity in Egypt Using Remote Sensing and GIS

Precision farming or site-specific land management is a new approach for development the agriculture processes to increase the soil and crop productivity with saving efforts and costs. Precision farming includes many techniques such as Global Position Systems (GPS), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Remote Sensing (RS), Yield Monitors, Internet of Things (IOT), Variable Rate Application (VRA), Yield Mapping, Site-Specific Management Zones (SSMZ) and Crop Modeling. SSMZ delineation can be improved... A. Belal, M. Elsayed , M.E. Jalhoum, M. abdelatif , E. Hendawy , M. Emam, M. Zahran

2. Decision Support System for Precision Agriculture management Case study : El Salihiya –east Nile delta, Egypt

.Soil is a complex mixture of living organisms and organic material, along with soil minerals. the main objective  of this work is develop a new methods to improve the agricultural management .The current study relies on developing a decision-making model for agricultural operations to manage potato crops in the El Salihiya area using field data,laboratory analysis and field sensor measurements. The precision agriculture decision support system entitled (EGYPADS) was designed and developed... A. Belal , S. abd el-kader, B. Mamdouh , M. A el-shirbeny, M. abdellatif1, M. Jalhoum , M.

3. Small Machinery for Sustainable Intensification of Crop-Livestock System under Biomass Shortage

Small crop-livestock systems in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMIC) such as North African ones are characterized by low mechanization levels, thus undermining their productivity and sustainability. Machinery being promoted in local markets are made and imported mostly from industrial countries where farm systems are larger in terms of size. Prices of these machines are not affordable for small to medium sized land-holding farmers who remain incapable of upgrading and modernizing their farming... U. Rudiger, Z. Aidoudi, A. Frija, M.

4. LiDAR-based soybean crop segmentation for autonomous navigation

The technological advances in the last few decades have greatly changed agricultural operations. In order to became safer, more profitable, efficient, and sustainable, modern farms have adopted the use of sophisticated technologies, such as robots, sensors, aerial images, and GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System). These technologies not only increase the crop productivity, but also reduce the wide use of water, fertilisers, and pesticides. Due to this, they reduce costs and negative environmental... V.A.

5. Water Application Efficiency of an Ultisol in Response to Climate Change in Two Agroecological Zones of Nigeria

Irrigation and fertilizer application are management practices farmers have adopted to increase food production for the growing population. This has improved crop nutrient absorption and the efficiency of fertilizer applied to the soil. This is essential to reduce plant water stress in a climate changing environment. This study investigated and compared water application efficiency under manual sprinkler irrigation with capillary irrigation method on ultisols located in rainforest and derived... I.A. Egbebi, D.J.

6. Development of a Decision Support Tool to Derive Site-specific Nutrient Management Recommendations for Maize Production Using Machine Learning​

Agriculture is the main source of food and income for rural communities in developing countries, especially in Africa. Given current population growth, pressures on agricultural systems will continue to increase. Many countries have agricultural economies that are highly dependent on agricultural productivity. For example, several variables can influence fertilization for optimal grain yields. Quantifying the effects and relative importance of soil properties such as soil type, pH, Olsen-P, climate,... O.
