1. Precision Weed Management Research Advancement In The Near EastPrecision weed control research received considerable attention since the introduction of global positioning systems (GPS). GPS and geographic information systems (GIS) technologies may assist with field monitoring, particularly; in deciding what weed species to monitor? What weed densities are bypassing critical thresholds? and where? While advancements in precision agricultural research could be detected through the intensive publications in the developed world,...

2. Road Map For Precision Agriculture In The Punjab, North-west IndiaAgricultural experimentation is both expensive and time consuming. It is necessary to reduce site-specific research and capitalize on the agricultural experience gained elsewhere by using soil maps and GIS-GPS (Geographic Information System - Global Positioning System) technology. Since in an agro-eco-subregion, soils in the same family require essentially the same management practices, maximum production results obtained in one soil family can be used as production targets for all soils belo...

3. Precision Agriculture In New Zealand’s Farming SystemsTo date New Zealand farmers do not realize how involved they are in Precision Agriculture (PA). As arable farmers we know how many kilograms of nitrogen (N) it takes to grow a tonne of wheat, how many kilograms of seed we can produce for every millimetre of water that is applied (through irrigation and/or rainfall) and yet we don’t believe we are involved in PA. As dairy farmers we are matching feed requirements to the specific production level of individual cows. We ar... C. Mackenzie, C. Mackenzie |
4. Worldwide Adoption Of Precision Agriculture Technology: The 2010 UpdatePrecision agriculture technology has been on the market for nearly two decades; and the question remains regarding how and to what extent farmers are making the best use of the technology. Yield monitors, GPS-enabled guidance technology, farm-level mapping and GIS software, on-the-go variable rate applications, and other spatial technologies are being used by thousands of farmers worldwide. The USDA Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS) and the annual CropLife/Purdue University Preci... T. Griffin, J. Lowenberg-deboer |
5. Land Information System Of Precision Farming In Mongolia Using Remote Sensing And Geographical Information SystemRemote sensing (RS) and geographic information system (GIS) technologies have been of great use to planners in planning for efficient use of natural resources at national, sub region and rural levels. RS can be used for precision farming in a number of ways for providing input supplies and variability management through decision support system. GIS is the principal technology used to integrate spatial data... B. Erdenee, B. Batbayar, R. Tateishi |
6. Is Precision Agriculture Feasible In Cocoa Production In Ghana? : The Case Of “Cocoa High Technology Programme” In The Eastern Region Of GhanaGhana is the second largest producer of cocoa in the world supplying 25% of the world’s cocoa, thus cocoa production contributes significantly to the economy of ...

7. Profitability of Regenerative Cropping with Autonomous Machines: an Ex-ante Assessment of a British Crop-livestock FarmFarmers, agroecological innovators and research have suggested mixed cropping as a way to promote soil health. Mixing areas of different crops in the same field is another form of precision agriculture's spatial and temporal management. The simplest form of mixed cropping is strip cropping. In conventional mechanized farming use of mixed cropping practices (i.e., strip cropping, pixel cropping) is limited by labour availability, rising wage rates, and management complexity. Regenerative a... A. Al amin, J. Lowenberg-deboer, K.F. Franklin, E. Dickin, J. Monaghan, K. Behrendt |
8. Integration of Precision Agriculture Tools for Variety Optimization and Crop Management Focused on Increasing Productivity in SugarcaneThe offer of precision agriculture tools has increased its popularity in sugarcane, clearly reading needs in the crop. However, obtaining more conclusive results presents difficulties mainly due to the deficiency in the integration of technological tools. The objective of the work is to show an efficient model of use and running of precision agriculture tools that consistently improve planning and agronomic and administrative decision-making that lead to superior results. The importance of th... C. Mosquera |
