Management plan model of agricultural planting information technology research and application of design system for agricultural production and digital has important theoretical and practical significance of agricultural planting. The study concluded, extracted the relevant agricultural planting design theory and technology research based on the show, applying the system analysis principle and ...

abstract regarding the imprecise or fuzzy data on the agriculture activities, applying models based on fuzzy data may be useful. in line with this condition this study tries to compare the ability of possiblistic programming approach in developing optimal solution with fuzzy and deterministic programming. to get this objective a data set obtained from 90 farmers of kohgilooye region, gathered i...

Cropping pattern in the Himalayan region of India has undergone a significant change in the recent past. Introduction of horticultural crops such as vegetables, fruits and flowers has led to more intensive agriculture. Such a change, resulting in higher incomes and improvements of the overall living conditions has, however, been accompanied with increased income risk. This emphasizes the need f...

A mathematical programming model is proposed for optimal cropping patterns under water de®cits in dry regions. Crops may be deliberately under-irrigated in order to increase the total irrigated area and possibly the pro®t. An operating policy will identify both the total area and the irrigation level allocated to a given selected crop taking into account the possible successors and predecessors...

In the Savannah region of West Africa, the highly variable rainfall and poor soils have been shown to di€erentially a€ect the yield potential of various crops. The paper applies a simple risk programming model to assess the e€ects of price and yield risk on the incomes of smallholder farmers in northern region of Coà te d'Ivoire. The analysis showed that by considering price and yield risks, it...

Over the recent past, there has been a growing concern on the need for mapping cropping practices in order to improve decision-making in the agricultural sector. We developed an original method for mapping cropping practices: crop type and harvest mode, in a sugarcane landscape of western Kenya using remote sensing data. At local scale, a temporal series of 15-m resolution Landsat 8 images was ...

BACKGROUND Reducing the risks and impacts of pesticide use on human health and on the environment is one of the objectives of the European Commission Directive 2009/128/EC in the quest for a sustainable use of pesticides. This Directive, developed through European national plans such as Ecophyto plan in France, promotes the introduction of innovative cropping systems relying, for example, on in...
