Agriculture is a major part of sub-Saharan Africa’s economy, but its expansion poses significant threats to great ape habitats and forests. The sector accounts for nearly onequarter of the continent’s gross domestic product (GDP) and, in one way or another, it employs nearly two-thirds of its labor force (UNECA, 2013, 2014). The production of agricultural commodities—for both subsistence and ex...

With the development of modern agriculture, more and more agricultural material products are used in it. While how to keep these things safe is a big problem at present, which needs to be paid more attention. This article develops an agricultural material products monitor system based on RFID which gives alarm as soon as possible if there is anything unmoral. Every warehouse exit is equipped wi...

India is a country where agriculture is the backbone of economy. It is need of hour to estimate agricultural production based upon its sown area, which deems to be not achievable manually every year. The underlying reason behind is the existing facilities and mechanism is inadequate to achieve the same. However, with the advent of state of the art technologies in Remote Sensing and GIS, it is q...

The nondestructive testing of agricultural products has always been a key technology for the modernization agriculture and food. By applying sinusoidal voltage (current) excitation signal variable frequency, relationship between amplitude, frequency phase response is obtained, measured function in certain range constructing correlation impedance spectroscopy matter properties. Electrical (EIS) ...

Modern methods of quantitative risk analysis, specifically value-at-risk and expected shortfall approach, provide comprehensive and coherent risk evaluation throughout entire distribution of outcomes and can take agricultural business from the realm of uncertainty to specific, quantified risks. Monte Carlo simulation with autocorrelation of standard deviation shows the best results in risk mode...
