1. Nutrient management tailored to smallholder agriculture enhances productivity and sustainability Plant 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 Download paper
2. Determinants of the adoption of an intelligent monitoring system and effects on farms performance in Tunisia Concidering the observation of the rise of Computerized Management Software Packages and intelligent monitoring in a path of modernization of agricultural techniques, we questioned the main factors influencing the decision to adopt management software, farmers’ perception of these management tools and their impact on farm performance. Referring to a theoretical framework focused on innovation and the adoption of technologies in agriculture, we triggered the hypothesis of research... J. Ben nasr, H. Chiboub, M.

3. Design and Development of a LoRa Communication System for Scalable Smart Irrigation Systems Smart irrigation is a promising tool to optimize irrigation water use but is still faced with challenges related to usability and applicability attributed to several constraints such as high initial costs, complex user interface, poor connectivity, limited farm coverage, etc. This study aimed to solve some of these issues through the development and testing of a LoRa communication system using a Raspberry Pi 4, LoRa HAT concentrator, and Strega smart valve at the Makerere University Agricultural...
