Developing countries with small-scale agriculture have yet to exploit the untapped potential of agricultural mechanization. This is because misconception that mechanization often seen as unworthy in agriculture. The purpose this paper examine development China and provide evidence on how smallholder farmers can access machinery. A narrative approach was employed conduct an in-depth analysis pol...

This study is dedicated to the assessment of the possibility of replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy as a source of power in modern agriculture. We examined the use of a completely sustainable agricultural mechanization system based on a renewable energy system and a battery powered, multi-purpose agricultural vehicle. This assessment is based on the RAMseS project, financed by the Euro...

Since 1994, Mozambique has made considerable progress in reducing its dependence on imported basic foodstuffs, raising agricultural production while macro-economic conditions have improved impressively. However, the majority of the rural populace continues to be poor, depending principally on semi-subsistence agriculture to survive. While land access is still relatively good, there is little us...

The Green Revolution of the 1960s brought about a dramatic rise in global crop yields. But, as most observers acknowledge, this has come at a considerable cost to biodiversity. Plant breeding, synthetic fertilizers, and mechanization steadily narrowed the number of crop varieties commercially available to farmers and promoted fencerow-to-fencerow monocultures. Many historians trace the origins ...

dispersion and separated of agricultural lands are considered as the serious barriers of agriculture development. the smallest and distributed oflands are obstacle in the efficient use of water, land, labor, mechanization and other factors in agriculture production. the main purpose of this article is analyse the influenced factors of the rejection of land integration. the statistical populatio...

Studies were conducted in the period 2009-2011 in the experimental field of the Institute of Land Reclamation and Agricultural Mechanization – Sofia. The following treatments were used: a1 no herbicides with weeds (C0); a2 herbicide oxyfluorfen (Goal 2 E) at a rate of 250 ml / da; a3 herbicide oxyfluorfen (Goal 2 E) at a rate of 500 ml / da. The experiment was set up using long plots, three ver...

Expert system techniques have been rapidly disseminating into every scientific domain, with many applications being reported within the last decade. Expert system is bringing a new perspective. This paper introduces the towed watersaving irrigation mechanization technology firstly. Then, an emphasis is made on development of the expert system for towed water-saving irrigation mechanization tech...
