1. Estimating Crop Leaf Area Index from Remotely Sensed Data: Scale Effects and Scaling MethodsLeaf area index (LAI) of crop canopies is significant for growth condition monitoring and crop yield estimation, and estimating LAI based on remote sensing observations is the normal way to assess regional crop growth. However, the scale effects of LAI make multi-scale observations harder to be fully and effectively utilized for LAI estimation. A systematical statistical strategy... Y. Dong , J. Wang , C. Li , G.

2. Radio Frequency Identification For Implementing Traceability In The Cotton Production In The Brazilian MidwestAccording to the International Cotton Advisory Committee - ICAC projection for the fiber in cotton production for the crop year 2012/2013 is expected to reach an amount of 15.19 million tons , according to a forecast released in August 2012 . In the Brazilian context , according to the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply of Brazil cotton cultivation in Brazil has grown especially in the Midwest . In particular , exports of cotton fiber increased twice in one season in 2003/2004... C. Santos, E.O. Weschter, M.A. Dota, C.E. Cugnasca |
3. Specification Of Data Dimension To Measure The Data Quality On Cotton ProductionThe management of cotton cultivation and agriculture in general, depend on quality data enabling the retrieving of useful information as an aid in decision making related to management techniques and farm management . Part of this task depends intelligible data generated through the processes that make up this segment . Creating means for enabling the classification data is the starting point for making decisions regarding any corrections or adjustments in the mass data . The heterogeneity... C. Santos, A.

4. Realising the Potential of Agricultural Robotics and AI: The Ethical ChallengesRecent advances in AI and robotics may dramatically transform agriculture by greatly expanding the number of contexts in which the techniques of precision agriculture may be applied. Inevitably, this next agricultural revolution will generate profound ethical issues: opportunities as well as risks. Clever applications of AI and robotics may allow agriculture to be more sustainable by facilitating more precise applications of water, fertilisers, and herbicides. Robots may take some of the drudgery... R. Sparrow |
