Due to the growing complexity of agricultural services the structured development and management of those services becomes more and more important. The following article shows how the concepts and methods of service engineering can be applied to the agricultural domain using nutrient mapping as an exemplary precision farming service.

Die Nutzung von Sensorsystemen bei der teilflächenspezifischen Bewirtschaftung eines Schlags steigert den Ertrag sowie die Wirtschaftlichkeit des Pflanzenanbaus. Dennoch tragen weitere Faktoren zur optimalen Nährstoffversorgung einer Pflanze bei, als sie von solch einem lokal arbeitenden System erfasst werden. Um die Effizienz dieser Precision Farming Systeme auszubauen ist der nächste, hier er...

A novel technique for providing fertilizer recommendation in precision agriculture is proposed. The method is based on the maximization of the profit function approximated using a decision support system based on artificial neural networks. The sofhyare implementation of the proposed approach is described and its use is illustrated on simulated realistic data. Experimental results suggest that ...

One of the major problems confronted in precision agriculture is uncertainty about how exactly would yield in a certain area respond to decreased application of certain nutrients. One way to deal with this type of uncertainty is the use of scenarios as a method to explore future projections from current objectives and constraints. In the absence of data, soft computing techniques can be used as...

Since a long time ago, agriculture has been significant part of the Indian economy. 18% India's gross domestic product is produced by sector (GDP). A better answer for precision provided robotics and internet things. Selective harvesting necessary when picking fruits or vegetables like tomatoes apples. In traditional farming, each fruit hand-picked worker, requiring huge amount labour to carry ...

Precision farming may play an important role in agricultural innovation. The study focuses on the attitude of Hungarian farmers toward precision farming. Based relevant technical literature, we performed a nationally representative questionnaire survey 594 and deep interviews with experts (30 persons). As regards questionnaire, authors found that management average farm size Hungary has highest...

On Farm Research Versuche stellen einen innovativen Ansatz der Versuchsdurchführung dar. Eine Analyse der versuchsbedingten Mehrkosten der Versuchsstation Roggenstein (TU-München) und eines On-Farm-Research (OFR) Versuches zeigen Unterschiede in Bezug auf Kostenstruktur und -höhe. Um die Chancen dieses neuen Versuchskonzepts zu nutzen, muss jedoch zuerst ergründet werden, für welche Versuchsfra...
