1. The Vision of Future Earth Observation for AgricultureThe main objective of EO4AGRI is to catalyze the evolution of the European capacity for improving operational agriculture monitoring from local to global levels based on information derived from Copernicus satellite observation data and through exploitation of associated geospatial and socio-economic information services. EO4AGRI assists the implementation of the EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) with special attention to the CAP2020 reform, to requirements of Paying Agencies, and... K. Charvat, V. Safar, H.

2. Nutrient management tailored to smallholder agriculture enhances productivity and sustainabilityPlant nutrition plays a central role in the global challenge to produce sufficient and nutritious food, lessen rural poverty, and reduce the environmental footprint of crop production. Efficient fertilizer use requires tailored solutions that are scientifically sound, practical and scalable especially for smallholder farmers, such as the crop-led site-specific nutrient management (SSNM) approach developed in the 1990s for cereal production systems in Asia to address variability among farms. Originating... P. Chivenge, K. Saito, M. Bunquin, S. Sharma, A. Dobermann |
3. Modelling Fertigation and Micro-Climate Parameters for Greenhouse Tomato (Solanum Lycopersicum L.)Amidst the hiking price of fertilizer and projected water scarcity across the world, it is imperative to explore the interaction between fertilizer, irrigation and genotype notwithstanding the micro-climate parameters so as to maximize yield while protecting the environment. The Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT) is a model which employs all these input factors to help predict yield and thereby make an informed decision. The study sort to calibrate and validate the... Y.K. Agbemabiese, P. Abubakari, P.K. Dzomeku, I. Shaibu |
