1. IMPACT OF SENSOR-BASED PRECISION NITROGEN MANAGEMENT ON WHEAT YIELD AND NITROGEN USE EFFICIENCYOptical sensors are promising new technology for precision nitrogen management in crops. Fertilizer N management for wheat (Cultivar: Giza 171) using optical sensor (GreenSeeker®) was evaluated at the Experimental Farm of Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, Giza Governorate, Egypt. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replications during two successive winter seasons (2017/2018 and 2018/2019) to quantify the relationship between N uptake at jointing growth...

2. Agronomic Yield Response of Lowland Rice Varieties to Nutrient Application Under Flooded Irrigation in Northern UgandaGlobally, flooded irrigation is a major water management method used to boost rice production. In Uganda, flooded irrigation is being promoted for lowland rice farming amidst the increasing threat of climate change and variability. Use of mineral fertilizer and improved varieties during the rice cropping calender is a measure towards intensive and precision farming for increased yields. However, the response of lowland rice varieties to fertilization with a defined cropping calendar remain now... R. Akena, P. Musinguzi |
