1. Spatial Interpolation for Mapping Hydraulic Soil Properties in GIS EnvironmentSoil water information is an essential input for environmental, hydrological or land surface models. There is a need for reliable soil water information with current coverage in the area. A number of 60 soil profiles data were evaluated for the performance of estimates inverse distance weighting to map some of the soil quality properties. soil profiles were used for the application of geostatistics. Maps with the investigated coverage were produced with the soil information available about soil... M.A. Abdelrahman, A.M. Saleh, M.M. El sharkawy, E. Farg, S.M. Arafat |
2. Potential precision agriculture practices for higher fruit and vegetable production in West Africa: A ReviewDuring the last decades, efforts have been made to increase the yield and the quality of major fruits and vegetables but still, farmers mainly those in West African countries are struggling to close the yield gap. Precision agriculture has been reported in most developed countries as a set of tools integrating information and technologies for efficient crop production. Over the decades, scholars have been skeptical about the development and implementation of precision agriculture in West Africa... V. Fassinou hotegni, L.W. Azonhoumon, E.G. Achigan-dako |
3. Using Remote Sensing to Develop Site-Specific Nitrogen Management in Citrus OrchardsIntegrating multivariate spatial analysis with the delineation of site-specific management zones (MZ) provides a basis for practical and cost-effective management of water and nitrogen (N) fertilization in precision agricultural (PA). In many crops, measurements of leaf N content are used to assess the plant’s nutritional status and to develop fertilizer application plans for optimal yields. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to develop leaf N content prediction for citrus based on multispectral... E. Rave, N. Ohana, R. linker, D. Termin, A. Beryozkin, T. Paz-kagan, S. Baram |
4. Potato Yield Prediction Using Multi-temporal Sentinel-2 Data and Multiple Linear RegressionTraditional potato growth models have a number of flaws, i.e., the cost of data collection, quality of input data, and the absence of spatial information in some cases. To address these challenges, we created a multiple linear regression model (MLRM) that uses the multi-temporal Sentinel-2 derived indices to predict potato yield. Along the growing season (from October 2019 to February 2020) eight Sentinel-2 imageries were collected, afterwards, the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI)... M.E.

5. Design and Development of a LoRa Communication System for Scalable Smart Irrigation SystemsSmart irrigation is a promising tool to optimize irrigation water use but is still faced with challenges related to usability and applicability attributed to several constraints such as high initial costs, complex user interface, poor connectivity, limited farm coverage, etc. This study aimed to solve some of these issues through the development and testing of a LoRa communication system using a Raspberry Pi 4, LoRa HAT concentrator, and Strega smart valve at the Makerere University Agricultural...
