The agriculture sector has many issues such as reductions of agricultural lands, growing population, health issues arising due to the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, reduction in soil health due to extreme use of synthetic…
Over the past half-century, the combination of technology and innovation has been developed to manage the negative impact of synthetic fertilizer on land ecosystems to identify the limitations of sustainability and optimize agricultural…
Feeding the growing human population sustainably amidst climate change is one of the most important challenges in the 21st century. Current practices often lead to the overuse of agronomic inputs, such as synthetic fertilizers and water,…
This study analyzes water quality dynamics and aquifer recharge through irrigated agriculture, contributing to the literature on Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) amidst growing water scarcity. We develop two optimal control models-- a linear…
Nowadays, many vegetables are grown insidegreenhouses in which environment is controlled and nutrition can be supplied through water supply using electrical pump, namely fertigation. Dosage of nutrition in water for many vegetable plants…
The release of heavy metals into the agricultural soil and waterbodies has been accelerated due to anthropogenic activities. They are not usually required for biological functions thus, their accumulation in biological system poses serious…
This comprehensive study investigates the intricate relationship between water scarcity and agricultural production, emphasizing its critical global significance. The research, through multidimensional analysis, investigates the various…
In general. automated farming systems make decisions based on static models built from the properties of the plant. in the contrast, irrigation decisions in our suggested method are dynamically changing environmental conditions. the model"s…
The agricultural sector is rapidly evolving to meet growing global food demands, yet tasks like fruit and vegetable handling remain labor-intensive, causing inefficiencies and post-harvest losses. Automation, particularly selective…
As global demand for efficiency in agriculture rises, there is a growing interest in high-precision farming practices. Particularly greenhouses play a critical role in ensuring a year-round supply of fresh produce. In order to maximize…
Humanity's progress in combating hunger, poverty, and child mortality is marred by escalating environmental degradation due to rising greenhouse gas emissions and climate change impacts. Despite positive developments, ecosystems are…
Early detection of fertilizer-induced stress in tomato plants is crucial for optimizing crop yield through timely management interventions. While conventional optical methods struggle to detect fertilizer stress in young leaves, these…
The addition of phosphorus, in the form of mineral fertilizer, becomes necessary in most agricultural soils in order to achieve consistent high yield levels of intensive farming and maintain soil fertility. Recent consolidation of phosphate…
The global population increase leads to a high food demand, and to reach this target products such as pesticides are needed to protect the crops. Research is focusing on the development of new products that can be less harmful to the…
This study addresses the vital role of data analytics in monitoring fertiliser applications in crop cultivation. Inaccurate fertiliser application decisions can lead to costly consequences, hinder food production, and cause environmental…
The interest in vertical farming arises from its ability to ensure consistent, high-quality, and pest-free vegetable production while supporting synergies with energy systems and urban development. While previous studies have assessed…
This work deals with the portability of greenhouse models, as we believe that this is a challenge to their practical usage in control strategies under production conditions. We address this task by means of adaptive neural networks, which…
The importance of fertilizers to agricultural production is undeniable, and most economies rely on international trade for fertilizer use. The stability of fertilizer trade networks is fundamental to food security. We use three valid…
Fertilization is commonly used to increase harvests. The lack of knowledge of soil properties and the excessive use of fertilizers can result in overfertilization. Current sensor technology is able to measure the concentrations of some of…
In this study three soil ecosystems, that differ in the type of management, have been compared in the attempt to understand if and how anthropogenic action affects them. The structure of the corresponding food webs was analyzed and their…
