1. An Open Source Multispectral Camera for Crop Monitoring

Precision agriculture is one of the most important economic issues of the 21st century because it will make it possible to respond to the new challenges of agriculture, which are population growth, global warming, global epidemics, and inflation, to name a few. Remote sensing makes it possible to monitor the plantation from a distance and makes it possible to know the level of growth and the state of health and hydration of the plants. This paper outlines an affordable and open-source multispectral... H. Nardjes, M. Yagoubi

2. Precision Maize Nutrition: Evidences from On-farm Experimentation of Quefts Estimated Nutrient Requirement for Variable Densities in Smallholder Farmers in Ethiopia

Quantitative Evaluation of the Fertility of Tropical Soils (QUEFTS) model is an important tool for estimating optimal nutrient requirement of crops. The study was conducted to evaluate QUEFTS estimated (QE) nutrient requirement of maize in two pant densities (32,443 and 53,333 plants/ha in Central Rift Valley (CRV); 27724 and 62,000 plants/ha in Jimma) on fields of three farmers wealth classes (poor, medium and wealth) in contrasting agro-ecologies of Ethiopia. QUEFTS follows a target oriented... W.B. Kenea, T.B. Tura, A.N. Woldekristos

3. Sustainability of Maize Production with Farmers’ Practices and Redesigned Crop Management Practices in CRV and Jimma of Ethiopia

Multi-criteria assessment of crop management practices is vital for sustainable crop production and environmental safety. In this study, sustainability of maize production with farmer’s practice (FP), redesigned plant density plus current fertilizer use (RDCF), current plant density plus redesigned fertilizer use (CDRF), and redesigned plant density and redesigned fertilizer use (RDRF) were assessed at farm level based on social, agronomic, economic and environmental principles in Central...
