1. Decision Support System for Precision Agriculture management Case study : El Salihiya –east Nile delta, Egypt.Soil is a complex mixture of living organisms and organic material, along with soil minerals. the main objective of this work is develop a new methods to improve the agricultural management .The current study relies on developing a decision-making model for agricultural operations to manage potato crops in the El Salihiya area using field data,laboratory analysis and field sensor measurements. The precision agriculture decision support system entitled (EGYPADS) was designed and developed... A. Belal , S. abd el-kader, B. Mamdouh , M. A el-shirbeny, M. abdellatif1, M. Jalhoum , M.

2. Scaling Precision Agriculture in West Africa Smallholder Irrigation and Water Management SystemsThe advent of precision agriculture (PA) is changing global agricultural productivity; through the underlining principles that ensure inputs required for the management of soil, water and crop agronomy are supplied precisely across the field landscape resulting in optimum yield. The benefits of PA include improved food security through increases in water and nutrient use efficiency, and timely management of good agricultural practices. The practice of PA could be beneficial across commercial –... A.O. Oke, V. Aduramigba-modupe |
3. Methodology for Assessing Nutrient Status of Nigeria Croplands: AfSIS/NiSIS Pilot Project - Pathway for Precision Agriculture MappingInherently low soil fertility, nutrient imbalances and accelerating degradation constitute threats to precision agriculture (PA), agricultural productivity and ecosystem services in sub-Saharan Africa (Nigeria inclusive). Presently, the geographical extent of existing nutrient constraints, location specific trends and opportunities for managing these over time are highly uncertain. The AfSIS/NiSIS project assessment aims to provide spatially explicit observations, measurements and predictions... V. Aduramigba-modupe, I. Amapu, M. Walsh, B. Scott |
4. Performance agronomique et économique de différentes stratégies de gestion de la fertilité du sol sous culture de soja (Glycine max L. Merril) dans la zone littorale du Togo.Ce travail a pour objectif de valoriser les émondes de deux légumineuses arbustives et quelques fertilisants organiques pour améliorer la production du soja. Afin de parvenir à cet objectif, les paramètres comme la masse de mille graines, les rendements en gousses, en graines, en fanes du soja et autres ont été déterminés. L’étude a eu lieu à la Station d’Expérimentation Agronomique de Lomé (SEAL)... K.M. Amouzouvi, K.E. Ozou, L. Kolani, K.A. Amouzouvi, J.M. Sogbedji |
5. Potential precision agriculture practices for higher fruit and vegetable production in West Africa: A ReviewDuring the last decades, efforts have been made to increase the yield and the quality of major fruits and vegetables but still, farmers mainly those in West African countries are struggling to close the yield gap. Precision agriculture has been reported in most developed countries as a set of tools integrating information and technologies for efficient crop production. Over the decades, scholars have been skeptical about the development and implementation of precision agriculture in West Africa... V. Fassinou hotegni, L.W. Azonhoumon, E.G. Achigan-dako |
6. Engaging Stakeholders in Precision Agriculture Toolbox Conception: Case of Cowpea Atlas Platform Establishment in Benin RepublicCowpea [(Vigna Unguiculata (L.) Walpers] is among the most preferred and consumed legumes in West Africa and grown by many smallholder farmers. The crop has huge potential, is easy to grow and constitute a source of income of many actors involved in different value chains. Unfortunately, despite many interventions which aimed at promoting the crop in West Africa mainly Benin, areas under cowpea crop decrease over the years along with the loss of cowpea-based products. Such problem is... N.V. Fassinou hotegni, Y.L. Godonou, L.M. Gnanglè, O.N. Coulibaly, E.G. Achigan-dako |
7. Analyse De La Variabilité Spatiale Des Rendements De Maïs (Zea Mays L.) Dans Les Régions Des Savanes Et Centrale Du TogoL'agriculture de précision s'impose au Togo. Une étude a été menée dans 5 préfectures du Togo, dont 2 dans la région des Savanes (Oti et Kpendjal) et 3 dans la région Centrale (Sotouboua, Tchamba et Tchaoudjo) avec un total de 20 producteurs en 2021. d'analyser la variation spatiale du rendement en grain du maïs (variété Ikenne) au sein de chaque région sous deux pratiques de gestion agricoles incluant :...

8. Recommandation De Formules De Fertilisation Site-spécifique Pour La Production Du Maïs Dans La Région Des Savanes Du TogoDans le contexte actuel de la dégradation des terres agricoles et des difficultés de disponibilité et d'accès aux intrants agricoles en particulier les engrais, la maximisation de l'efficience d'utilisation des nutriments en nutrition des plantes devient plus que jamais une nécessité. Nous avons conduit en 2020 sous culture de maïs (Zea mays L.), des essais soustractifs à base de l'azote (N), du phosphore (P) et du potassium... M. Lare, J. Sogbedji, K. Lotsi, K. Amouzou, A.

9. New Trends in Precision Agriculture Management: Africa PerspectiveThe ever-increasing human population in Africa demands a corresponding increase in food and fiber production. Although Africa has the 12th highest population growth rates in the world which may double by 2050, food productivity in the region has remained low. A critical challenge facing crop production in Africa is low awareness of precision agriculture (PA) and low soil fertility in many agroecosystems. Available studies show that digital technology is transforming the agricultural sector... V. Aduramigba-modupe |
10. Fine-tuning Specialty Fertilization Strategies to Local Wheat Production Through On-farm Experimentation in NigeriaWheat specialty fertilizer validation trial was conducted in 8 Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Kano State, Nigeria on farmers field. The specialty fertilizer validation project is implemented to improve the productivity and profitability of small-scale wheat smallholder farmers. Four treatments - absolute control (AC), local control (LC), OCP1 and OCP2 were replicated four times in a RCBD on a plot of 25m2. The AC was based on the indigenous nutrient supply from the soil (no application... V. Aduramigba-modupe, J.M. Jibrin, . Olabanji, B. Lawan, D. Madukwe |
11. Capacity Building of African Young Scientists in Precision Agriculture Through Cross Regional Academic MobilityClimate change is one of the main problems affecting food and nutrition globally, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Adapting to and/or mitigating climate change in the agri-food sector requires merging information technologies, genetic innovations, and sustainable farming practices to empower the agricultural youth sector to create effective and locally adapted solutions. Precision Agriculture applied to crops (PAAC), has been advocated as a strategic solution to mitigate/adapt agriculture at... K. Frimpong, V. Fassinou hotegni, A. Karangwa, A. Manyatsi, M. Amri, D.
