1. Assessment of Nitrogen and Phosphorus Content (NP) in Citrus Trees Using UAV-imagery Derived Vegetation Indices and Machine Learning AlgorithmsMonitoring nutrient status of citrus trees is fundamental to ensure optimum fruit yield and quality. However, this task is traditionally time-consuming and laborious. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), with their high temporal and spatial resolution imagery, are demonstrating a great potential to substitute traditional methods in assessing nutrient status of several crops, including citrus. In this study, we evaluated the performance of vegetation indices (VIs) derived from UAV multispectral images... Z. Abail, H. Benaouda, M. Chikhaoui, H. Benyahia, O. Iben halima, M. Baraka, A.

2. Agronomic Yield Response of Lowland Rice Varieties to Nutrient Application Under Flooded Irrigation in Northern UgandaGlobally, flooded irrigation is a major water management method used to boost rice production. In Uganda, flooded irrigation is being promoted for lowland rice farming amidst the increasing threat of climate change and variability. Use of mineral fertilizer and improved varieties during the rice cropping calender is a measure towards intensive and precision farming for increased yields. However, the response of lowland rice varieties to fertilization with a defined cropping calendar remain now... R. Akena, P. Musinguzi |
3. Evaluating Soil Organic Matter Under a No-Till System Using Digital Sensors (EM38 and MSP3)Agriculture, especially in no-till systems, plays a crucial role in ensuring global food security. The pressure on agricultural lands due to a growing population and climate change necessitates innovative solutions. Proximal soil sensing using electromagnetic induction (EMI) and electrical conductivity (ECa) sensors has gained prominence. These technologies provide rapid, non-destructive measurements of soil properties, offering advantages over remote sensing and laboratory analyses. In... H. Hajjaj, K. Ibno namr, E. Abdellah , C.

4. Capacity Building of African Young Scientists in Precision Agriculture Through Cross Regional Academic MobilityClimate change is one of the main problems affecting food and nutrition globally, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Adapting to and/or mitigating climate change in the agri-food sector requires merging information technologies, genetic innovations, and sustainable farming practices to empower the agricultural youth sector to create effective and locally adapted solutions. Precision Agriculture applied to crops (PAAC), has been advocated as a strategic solution to mitigate/adapt agriculture at... K. Frimpong, V. Fassinou hotegni, A. Karangwa, A. Manyatsi, M. Amri, D.
