Sustainable crop production in greenhouses based on understanding crop physiology

Sustainable intensification of crop production

Relevance Concerns about the environmental impact of farming has increasingly been the focus of discussions in the EU. Croplands, a primary land use in Europe, have a significant impact on the environment (soil, water bodies, global climate, local biodiversity and human health). The use of fertilisers and pesticides associated with conventional farming may lead to pollution and/or climate chang...

Bacterial Biofertilizers for Sustainable Crop Production: a Review

The most important constraint limiting crop yield in developing nations worldwide, and especially among resource-poor farmers, is soil infertility. Therefore, maintaining soil quality can reduce the problems of land degradation, decreasing soil fertility and rapidly declining production levels that occur in large parts of the world needing the basic principles of good farming practice. Minerals...

Research on Remote Crop Production Management System Based on Crop Simulation Models and WebGIS

In order to simulate growth and yield of crop in field scale, crop simulation models always require a lot of initial parameters. WebGIS is a powerful tool for obtaining, managing and analyzing spatial data on the Web. With the support of WebGIS, crop models based on web services can be easily run on the web by remote client and provide decision information and measures for crop production. In t...
