1. Mapping spatial variability of soil nutrient deficiencies in smallholder villages – a prerequisite for improved crop production in Africa

Smallholder farming is the dominating type of agricultural production in many parts of Africa. If cultivation practices can be adapted to match the specific needs of individual smallholder plots, this can certainly be regarded as a form of precision agriculture (PA), considering their limited size. A fundamental prerequisite for successful application of PA is the availability of basic information on soil properties at a detailed enough level. To fill yield gaps, site specific information must... M. Söderström, K. Piikki, J. Kihara, J. Mutua, J. Wetterlind

2. Performance of Remote Sensing Data and Machine Learning for Wheat Disease Detection

The use of agrochemicals has many impacts on humans’ health and generates many environmental issues. However, a suitable management of agrochemicals inputs, such as insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides, is crucial to the success of wheat crops under climate change conditions. The use of remote sensing technologies in agriculture was raised within the technological evolution of materials and techniques during last decades. The development of new and cheap sensors has been the main reason... Y. Lebrini, A. Ayerdi-gotor

3. Maximisation De L’efficience D’utilisation Des Nutriments : Recommandation De Fertilisation à La Carte Pour Le Maïs Sur Les Ferralsols Du Sud-togo

L'amélioration de la nutrition des plantes à travers l'agriculture de précision devient incontournable pour l'optimisation de l'entreprise agricole et la protection de l'environnement. Nous avons conduit pendant la grande saison culturelle de 2019 et 2020, sous culture de maïs (Zea mays L.), des essais soustractifs à base de l'azote (N), du phosphore (P) et du potassium (K) à la station d'expérimentations agronomiques (SEAL)...

4. 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...
