This paper presents the basic principles that should be applied during the preparation of an agricultural producers group to certify food safety management system. The presented model describes the requirements during the implementation that is preparing the system for certification and the very process of certification. What is more, the analysis of the primary risks associated with the group ...

Despite the advances made in various new technologies, application of these technologies for agriculture still remains a formidable task, as it involves integration of diverse domains for monitoring the different process involved in agricultural management. Advances in ambient intelligence technology represents one of the most powerful technology for increasing the yield of agricultural crops a...

With the rapid progress of information technology more and more people utilize high technology to boost the fast development of the national economy. Since the project of agricultural science and technology to farmer was put into practice by Ministry of Agriculture in 2005, 212 representative counties have been set, 200,000 typical households have been added, and 4 million peasants have enhance...

Demand prediction plays a key role in supply chain management of fresh agricultural products enterprises and its algorithm research is a hotspot for the researchers related. A new algorithm for demand prediction of supply chain management of fresh agricultural products is advanced based on BP neural network and immune genetic particle swarm optimization algorithm. First, the deficiencies of tra...

An Agricultural Sector Model is used to determine the economic potential of agricultural greenhouse gas emission reduction strategies within hypothetical emission mitigation markets. For a complete set of agricultural land management decisions, emissions and emission reductions of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide are accounted for and simultaneously subjected to a wide range of carbon...

We have been in a web information stage, by new information management technologies, we can get better agricultural development. The paper introduces the research work on agricultural thesaurus and ontology; it could improve the agricultural information retrieval. Main work include to convert Chinese Agricultural Thesaurus (CAT) to the agricultural ontology, this can use traditional domain know...

This review paper provides a on Footprint estimation methodology its merit shortcomings, practical challenges wi...

The objective of this paper is to convey the results of a first effort to use LEGO Mindstorms kits in an introductory course in Technical Systems Management (TSM), at the department of Agricultural Engineering of the University of Illinois. Four groups of students built Robotic Agricultural Machines using LEGO Mindstorms kits, with Robolab as the programming environment. The projects were carri...

In agriculture, it is required to establish and integrate food traceability systems and risk management systems in order to improve food safety in the entire food chain. The integrated traceability system for agricultural products was developed, based on innovative technology of RFID and mobile computing. In order to identify individual products on the distribution process efficiently, small RF...

The agricultural information resources is an important data assets, how to rationally plan, share and use of distributed storage of agricultural information resources, efficiently develop agricultural information resources, is the important issue of agricultural information resources needed to resolve. Based on the fully research on the current status of agricultural information systems, manage...
