Aimed on the efficiency, energy-saving, yield and pro-environment, the precision agriculture is needed to develop. Presently, the field information quick-acquisition technology has become the important topics in the international precision agriculture research fields, because that still far behind the development of other precision agriculture technologies. The technological innovations focus o...

Wireless Sensor Network technology is expected to create significant impact on our lives in the coming decade. Various applications of Wireless Sensor Network include environmental monitoring, natural disaster prediction, home appliances covering many domains like agriculture, and health care, clustered databases and so on. A Sensor Network is a network comprised of sensing as well as computing...

This paper briefly described the general production of intelligent agricultural machine in precision agriculture. It summarized the basic principle and the application in precision agricultural demonstration field of those agricultural machines, which mainly included wheat variable ferti-seeder, yield distribution information acquiring system, variable controlled large irrigation system moving ...

India is an agricultural Country and 56.6% of its population depends on agriculture. Designing a Decision Support System (DSS) for crop cultivation enables the farmers to make effective decision for higher yield. The parameters that are considered for the enhancement of a seasonal crop growth are type of soil and season, Insects-Pests management, irrigation methodologies. The main aim of the wo...

Many attempts have been made to apply crop remote sensing systems within precision agriculture. Despite e.g. the Hydro N-Sensor seems to operate quite well, no significant implementation in precision agriculture has occurred yet. This paper describes a low-cost, robust, simple, and modular measuring device based on existing technology for monitoring the spatial variation of the performance of f...

Precision Agriculture (PA) is the management of spatial and temporal variability of the fields. This management concept incorporates a range of management as well as ICT tools to assess and treat the variability within the field. The adoption and diffusion of PA is discussed in this chapter. PA has been practiced over the last 15 years mostly in North America and Northern Europe. Despite its pr...
