1. Precision Farming and Automation in Africa: Challenges and OpportunitiesDigitalization, artificial intelligence, robotics and automation are currently driving a new revolution towards precision farming (PF) and Agriculture 4.0. This will contribute to enhanced sustainability and agroecological advances through optimal use of soil, water, agricultural inputs, as well as pest and weed control, providing accurate decision support systems to farmers. PF is gradually transforming agricultural landscape by supporting farmers with optimized management of inputs and resources... R. Serraj |
2. Driving Up Large Scale Irrigated Wheat Yields Through Variable Rate P & K Fertilizer Recommendations in ZambiaSoil types and how these change across a field/farm are the main drivers of yield. Through the surveying of the fields and their subsequent subdivision (virtual) into homogenous zones, Cropnuts has been able to carry out yearly soil sampling within each zone and generate soil correction plans to target the needs of each individual zone rather than applying blanket recommendations. This has led to improved fertilizer efficiency and has had a massive impact on yields of our clients. ... J. Parigiani |
