1. LiDAR-based soybean crop segmentation for autonomous navigationThe technological advances in the last few decades have greatly changed agricultural operations. In order to became safer, more profitable, efficient, and sustainable, modern farms have adopted the use of sophisticated technologies, such as robots, sensors, aerial images, and GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System). These technologies not only increase the crop productivity, but also reduce the wide use of water, fertilisers, and pesticides. Due to this, they reduce costs and negative environmental... V.A.

3. A reinforcement learning based approach for efficient irrigation water managementDue to population growth and the effects of climate change, most of the world's regions are threatened by water scarcity, especially in Africa and the Mediterranean region. In Morocco, agriculture consumes more than 85% of available water. Thus, to preserve water resources, the rational management of irrigation water is necessary. In this context, recent technological progress and the emergence of artificial intelligence could provide an effective decision support tool for the rational and... C. El hachimi, S. Belaqziz, S.

4. Manipulation of Row Spacing Did Not Affect Growth and Yield of Chia in Two Contrasting Environments in KenyaSustainability of agricultural production relies on a good management strategy in crop production. Optimal spacing is one of the major crop management systems in chia production required to increase yield and quality of chia seed. In this regard, this study explored the potential of different row spacing on the growth and yield of chia in Kenya. Two experiments comprising three spacing arrangements of 30 cm x 10 cm, 60 cm x 10 cm and 90 cmx 10 cm were carried out in Kabete and Nyeri in a randomized... A.W. Muturi, A. Wanjiku muturi, A.
