1. An Economic-Theory-Based Approach to Management Zone DelineationIn both the academic and popular literatures on precision agriculture technology, a management zoneis generally defined as an area in a field within which the optimal input application strategy is spatially uniform. The characteristics commonly chosen to delineate management zones, both in the literature and in commercial practice, are yield and variables associated with yield. But microeconomic theory makes clear that economically optimal input application strategies... B. Edge |
2. Characterization of Soil Properties, Nutrient Distribution and Rice (Oryza Sativa.) Productivity As Influenced by Tillage Methods in a Typical GleysolsGlobal emphasis and interest in conservation Tillage in agricultural soils has tremendously increased in the last few years, especially no tillage with its potential to improve soil physicochemical properties, reduce nutrient leaching as well as improve crop productivity in a more sustainable manner. Several questions still exist with regard to the true role of no tillage in improving soil fertility. A two year field study was conducted to characterize the effects of different tillage methods...
