1. Precision Farming Technology to Increase Soil and Crop Productivity in Egypt Using Remote Sensing and GIS

Precision farming or site-specific land management is a new approach for development the agriculture processes to increase the soil and crop productivity with saving efforts and costs. Precision farming includes many techniques such as Global Position Systems (GPS), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Remote Sensing (RS), Yield Monitors, Internet of Things (IOT), Variable Rate Application (VRA), Yield Mapping, Site-Specific Management Zones (SSMZ) and Crop Modeling. SSMZ delineation can be improved... A. Belal, M. Elsayed , M.E. Jalhoum, M. abdelatif , E. Hendawy , M. Emam, M. Zahran

2. Using Decision Support Tool for Site Specific Nutrient Management in Maize Production in Ethiopia: The case of Nutrient Expert

There are huge variabilities among farmers in terms of crop management practices, soil types and fertility status as well as climatic conditions all of which affects crop fertilizer requirement and yield. Despite these variations, farmers are using blanket/regional fertilizer recommendations, which does not consider the above-mentioned variabilities. As a consequence, farmers are either practicing over fertilization or under fertilization, both of which have undesirable consequences. Therefore,... T. Balemi

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...
