1. Evaluation of on –farm oil palm yield parameters in Niger Delta region of NigeriaEvaluation of on –farm oil palm yield parameters in Niger Delta region of Nigeria *Ekhator F1., Osayande P1., Aduramigba-Modupe V.O2., Solomon O1., and Ikuenobe C.E1. 1Nigerian Institute for Oil Palm Research (NIFOR) P.M.B 1030, Benin City, Edo State 2Institute of Agricultural Research and Training, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ibadan, Oyo...

2. Application of precision agriculture technologies in grazing: example of goats browsing in forest rangelands of Northern MoroccoThe aim of this study was to characterize patterns of grazing behavior of goats in a Mediterranean forest rangeland. We conducted a one-year study in the Chefchaouen region, Northern Morocco, during two contrasting seasons (spring and summer) using new technological tools. Eight goats were simultaneously fitted with GPS collars and sensors for 3 days during each season. A calibration study and classification tree analysis were used to predict other grazing activities of goats (eating, walking,... Y. Chebli, S. El otmani, M. Chentouf, J. Hornick, J. Cabaraux |
3. Sensor Based In-Season Nitrogen Determination for Quality Protein Maize on Farmers Field Western EthiopiaQuality protein maize production is a current common practice and widely produced in western Ethiopia but its productivity is negatively affected by low rate and time of nitrogen application but there is still inadequate research on this phenomenon in quality protein maize production. This in view different attempts have been made to solve the soil fertility problems using sensor-based nitrogen management in southwestern and western Ethiopia. The objectives of this review were to summarize past... T. Abera |
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. Using Precision Technologies to Monitor the Grazing Activities of Goat in a North African WoodlandIn the north of Africa, browsing on natural pastures is the main source of feed for domestic goats. Livestock farming, particularly grazing goats, constitutes the prevalent agricultural activity in the mountainous areas of Morocco. Data on animal behavioral activities are essential for understanding their feeding and their interaction with the environment in order to define the optimal management intervention strategies. The recent development of precision farming technologies and the increasing... Y. Chebli, M. Chentouf, J. Cabaraux, S. El otmani |
