1. Small Machinery for Sustainable Intensification of Crop-Livestock System under Biomass Shortage

Small crop-livestock systems in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMIC) such as North African ones are characterized by low mechanization levels, thus undermining their productivity and sustainability. Machinery being promoted in local markets are made and imported mostly from industrial countries where farm systems are larger in terms of size. Prices of these machines are not affordable for small to medium sized land-holding farmers who remain incapable of upgrading and modernizing their farming... U. Rudiger, Z. Aidoudi, A. Frija, M.

2. Evaluating Soil Organic Matter Under a No-Till System Using Digital Sensors (EM38 and MSP3)

Agriculture, especially in no-till systems, plays a crucial role in ensuring global food security. The pressure on agricultural lands due to a growing population and climate change necessitates innovative solutions. Proximal soil sensing using electromagnetic induction (EMI) and electrical conductivity (ECa) sensors has gained prominence. These technologies provide rapid, non-destructive measurements of soil properties, offering advantages over remote sensing and laboratory analyses.... H. Hajjaj, K. Ibno namr, E. Abdellah , C.

3. Design and Development of a LoRa Communication System for Scalable Smart Irrigation Systems

Smart 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...
