The choice of formulation is influenced by the following factors: the physical properties of the pesticide (melting point, solubility, and volatility), the chemical properties of the pesticide (hydrolytic stability, thermal stability, and irradiation stability), the mode of application of the formulation (soil, foliar), the crop to be treated and the agricultural practices, the biological prope...

This paper proposes an efficient network architecture to improve energy consumption in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). The proposed architecture uses a mobile data collector to a partitioned network. The mobile data collector moves to center of each logical partition after each decision period. The mobile data collector must declare its new location by packet broadcasting to all sensor node...

Nutrient uptake by trees is determined by root interception, soil availability, and tree demand. Fruit trees have low rooting density, especially in the case of dwarfing rootstocks. Mobility in the soil is a key factor in determining nutrient availability, and good management of nutrients requires that supply is matched to demand, in terms of amount, timing and retention in the root-zone, and t...

Managing manure in reduced tillage and forage systems presents challenges, as incorporation by tillage is not compatible. Surface-applied manure that is not quickly incorporated into soil provides inefficient delivery of manure nutrients to crops due to environmental losses through ammonia (NH3) volatilization and nutrient losses in runoff, and serves as a major source of nuisance odors. An arr...

Introduction Sugarcane is a long-duration and nutrient-exhaustive crop. To improve nutrient use efficiency, the 4R stewardship approach comprises applying nutrients at right time place with method proportion. Improper management in such crop will result various losses environmental pollution. Methods Concerning this, field study was performed on calcareous soils of lower Indo-Gangetic plains In...

Digital Media Technologies offer enhanced multimedia signal broadcasting and description of the signal on content. Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) is a media standard with extended multimedia capabilities, offering novel services to users worldwide. Each digital broadcasting standard though, cannot be separately viewed from the development of Internet radio broadcasting. In this paper we intro...
