1. Excellence in Agronomy 2030: A new CGIAR-wide initiative to deliver agronomy solutions at scaleRequired increases in crop production and productivity in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) will not happen without the increased use of appropriate agronomic practices. While several thousand new varieties of nearly all key crops have been produced in the past decade, recent increases in yields in specific countries have only happened when such varieties received the right agro-inputs and management. That said, agronomy is often highlighted as an area that has not delivered impact at scale in SSA, or... B. Vanlauwe, T. Amede, F. Baudron, P. Chivenge, M. Devare, K. Saito, J. Kihara, V. Nangia, P.

2. Using Remote Sensing to Develop Site-Specific Nitrogen Management in Citrus OrchardsIntegrating multivariate spatial analysis with the delineation of site-specific management zones (MZ) provides a basis for practical and cost-effective management of water and nitrogen (N) fertilization in precision agricultural (PA). In many crops, measurements of leaf N content are used to assess the plant’s nutritional status and to develop fertilizer application plans for optimal yields. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to develop leaf N content prediction for citrus based on multispectral... E. Rave, N. Ohana, R. linker, D. Termin, A. Beryozkin, T. Paz-kagan, S. Baram |
3. Soil organic carbon mapping in Tunisia: comparison of different interpolation methodsSoil organic carbon (SOC) stock is an important carbon pool in terrestrial ecosystems. It plays an important role in agricultural productivity and is often used as a key indicator of soil quality whether for soil fertility or climate regulation. SOC stocks are difficult to estimate due to the large spatial variability. In this way, many different techniques have been conducted for predicting and mapping SOC content. However, although numerous techniques are in use, there is still debate on which... M. Barbouchi, H. Bahri, A. Souissi, H. Cheikh m'hamed, M. Annabi |
4. Use of Earth Observation Imagery, Advanced Modelling Algorithms and Other Monitoring Systems to Produce Operational Agricultural Annual Crop Inventories for Morocco.African farmers are facing the challenges of a changing climate, increased temperatures, changes in rainfall patterns, more frequent extreme weather events and reductions in water availability. The digital transformation of the agricultural sector is one of the opportunities that can promote good practices of the African agricultural through the sharing of information and tools for decision-making, thereby, boost economic growth of our African country. The shift to digital technologies is... M. Choukri, A. Laamrani , V. simonneaux , B. Gerard , S. Belaqziz, A. Chehbouni, K. Misbah, H. Mcnairn |
