1. A Step Towards Precision Irrigation: Plant Water Status Detection With Infrared ThermographyThe increasing demand for water all over the world calls for precision agriculture which accounts globally about 70 percent of all water withdrawal. Therefore, there is a need to optimizing water use efficiency and making the best use of available water for irrigation. Plant water status detection for advanced irrigation scheduling is frequently done by predawn leaf water potential (ΨPD) or leaf stomata conductance (gL) measurements. However, these measurements are time and labour consuming.... S. Zia |
2. Technology Support for Game Monitoring As a Tool for Damages Reduction of Field CropsWild boars (Sus scrofa) are increasingly becoming the main cause of field crops damage in Czech Republic and central Europe area. There are many reasons why wild boars population is growing. The major reason is most likely change in the composition of field crops. In some areas in particular there is focus on oilseed rape and maize, for which there are also recorded the biggest losses. One of the key discussion topics is the issue of estimation of animal quantities and its traceability.... J. Jarolimek, M. Stočes, M. Ulman, J. Vaněk |
3. Open Data for Food Quality and Food Security Control: a Case Study of the Czech RepublicFood quality and food security is of a high public interest in the European Union. In the Czech Republic, food quality and food security is under control of three different public authorities: the Czech Trade Inspection Authority (CTIA) that is affiliated with the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic, the Czech Agriculture and Food Inspection Authority (CAFIA) that is affiliated with the Ministry of Agriculture of the Czech Republic and the regional network of hygienic stations...

4. Experiences in the Development of Commercial Web-Based Data Engines to Support UK Growers Within an Industry-Academic PartnershipThe lifecycle of Precision Agriculture data begins the moment that the measurement is taken, after which it may pass through each multiple data processes until finally arriving as an output employed back in the production system. This flow can be hindered by the fact that many farm datasets have different spatial resolutions. This makes the process to aggregate or analyse multiple Precision Agriculture layers arduous and time consuming. Precision Decisions Ltd located in Yorkshire,... J. Taylor, Y. Shahar, P. James, C.
