1. Tomato yield and economic performance under organic and mineral fertilizer applications in coastal TogoResearch efforts towards enhancing vegetables production are still needed in Togo. We assessed tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) yield and associated economic returns under three soil fertility management strategies in a 3-yr period study. Three tomato varieties were used including: MONGAL-F1 (V1), SUMO-F1 (V2) and COBRA 26-F1 (V3). The fertilization regimes were: no fertilizer application as the control (F1), application of 200 kg of N15P15K15 + 100... J.M. Sogbedji, M. Lare |
2. La fertilité indigène du sol : un élément catalyseur de l’agriculture de précisionDans le contexte actuel de la dégradation des ressources naturelles et des problèmes de disponibilité et d'accessibilité des intrants agricoles, l'agriculture de précision dont le point d'entrée est la connaissance de la fertilité endogène du sol s'impose. Des essais soustractifs ont été conduits pendant deux ans (2018-2019) à la Station d'Expérimentations Agronomiques de l'Université... K. William, J. Sogbedji, M. Lare |
3. Monitoring irrigation water use at large scale irrigated areas using remote sensing in water scarce environmentIncreasing pressure on available water resources in semi-arid region will affect the availability of water for irrigated agriculture. In this context, adoption of innovative and cost-effective tools for water management and analysis of water use patterns in irrigated areas is required for an efficient and sustainable use of water resources. This study aims to evaluate a remote sensing-based approach which allows estimation of the temporal and spatial distribution of crop evapotranspiration... M. Kharrou, V. Simonneaux, M. Le page, S.

4. 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 |
5. Fertilizer Micro-dosing on Growth and Vegetative Yield of Fluted Pumpkin (Telfairia occidentalis Hook. f)The study evaluated growth and vegetative response of fluted pumpkin (Telfairia occidentalis Hook. f) to levels and time of micro-dosing Urea fertilizer. The experiment was conducted in two growing seasons of late and early cropping seasons of 2017 and 2018 respectively at the Teaching and Research Farm of Obafemi Awolowo University. The experiment was a factorial laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four replications involving seasons, levels of fertilizer (0, 20,... P.A. Amao, B. Amujoyegbe, D. Oyedele |
6. Precision Nitrogen Management in Maize Using an Optical Sensor in the Indo-Gangetic PlainsBlanket fertilizer nitrogen (N) for large irrigated maize field lead to low N use efficiency (NUE) due to spatial and in season temporal variability. In order to achieve higher NUE, a fertilizer N management strategy using GreenSeekerTMoptical sensor was evaluated. GreenSeekerTM uses visible and near-infrared spectral response from crop canopies. We conducted 03 field experiments during 2012-14 in monsoon season maize to define relationship and develop algorithm between in season... V. Singh |
7. Field Digitization and Decision Support System (Dss) in Peach Cultivation to Manage the Mediterranean Fruitfly, Ceratitis CapitataThe Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedermann) (Diptera: Tephritidae), is a highly invasive, polyphagous species that attacks a wide range of fruits. In Tunisia, among the host species, peaches (Prunus persica (L.) are particularly susceptible, especially late-ripening cultivars. The risk of Medfly attack is related to various factors, such as the period of ripening during the season and the physical–chemical characteristics of the fruit. Traditionally, treatments... M.

8. Evolving Potentials for Precision Climate-smart Agriculture in Sub-saharan African CountriesProgressively, there is increasing awareness on the significance of agriculture in both adaptation and mitigation to climate change. While adaptation has been typically highlighted in the most vulnerable countries, especially in Africa where the failure to adapt have been noted to exacerbate the dangers of food insecurity, there is limited effort at emphasizing mitigation as the ultimate resolution of the debacle. Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is critical to achieving development irrespective... M.G. Ogunnaike, O.D. Onafeso |
9. Variability in Yield Response of Maize to N, P and K Fertilization Towards Site-specific Nutrient Recommendations in Two Maize Belts in TogoLes régions de savane et du centre sont les principales zones de production de maïs au Togo, mais avec des rendements en grains de maïs à un seuil de seulement 1,5 Mg ha -1 . Nous utilisons une approche participative pour évaluer l'importance des trois principaux macro-éléments (N, P et K) pour la culture du maïs dans les deux régions afin de permettre davantage de recommandations d'engrais spécifiques au site et...

10. Maximisation De L’efficience D’utilisation Des Nutriments : Recommandation De Fertilisation à La Carte Pour Le Maïs Sur Les Ferralsols Du Sud-togoL'amélioration de la nutrition des plantes à travers l'agriculture de précision devient incontournable pour l'optimisation de l'entreprise agricole et la protection de l'environnement. Nous avons conduit pendant la grande saison culturelle de 2019 et 2020, sous culture de maïs (Zea mays L.), des essais soustractifs à base de l'azote (N), du phosphore (P) et du potassium (K) à la station d'expérimentations agronomiques (SEAL)...

11. Real-Time Moisture Control in Irrigation Systems for Water Use Efficiency and Climate Change Resilience. A ReviewDue to the increasing water scarcity and uncertainties of climate change, improving crop water use efficiency and productivity, at the same time minimizing detrimental effects on the environment to meet the world's rising food demand. Thus, is necessary to adopt innovative irrigation strategies, such as drip irrigation. Smart irrigation has a potential of improving water use efficiency in precision agriculture. Conventionally, irrigation systems rely on heuristic methods in order to schedule... D. Kindikiza |
