E-grāmata: Sustainable Agriculture Systems and Technologies

"Emerging Trends in Sustainable Agricultural Practices will detail sustainable technologies in sustainable agriculture, including classification and change detection of cultivated land, sensing mechanisms and platforms, and decision support systems for precision agriculture. The intention of this book is to provide an overview of some of the most promising technologies with precision agriculture from an economic point of view. Each chapter has been put together so that it can be read individually should the reader wish to focus on one particular topic. This book will provide a comprehensive assessment of various agricultural scenarios relating to agricultural remote sensing: platforms, sensors, instruments, agricultural dynamics - algorithms, models, agriculture properties, agricultural dynamics - monitoring and assessment, crop forecasting and acreage estimation monitoring, biophysical variable management, crop rotation and their assessment, agricultural economics management, future perspective of agriculture and future challenges of agricultural management and development. This book would be beneficial for academics, scientists, environmentalists, environmental consultants, and computing experts working in the area of agricultural sciences."--

Sustainable Agriculture Systems and Technologies

A robust treatment of traditional and new techniques in sustainable agriculture

In Sustainable Agriculture Systems and Technologies, a team of distinguished researchers delivers an up-to-date and comprehensive exploration of sustainable agriculture and its relationship to the drivers of climate change. Along with robust examinations of food security and the agrarian livelihood, the book covers the impact of climate change and variability on agriculture, water management in agricultural systems, and precision agriculture.

This book represents a significant contribution to the scientific understanding of the application of technologies that address food insecurity and climate change through sustainable productivity, system diversification, irrigation practices, crop modeling, data analytics, and agricultural policy. It also explores the risks and benefits of different agricultural systems under changing climate scenarios.

The book also offers:

• A thorough introduction to agriculture and food security, including the diversification of ecosystems and the impact of Covid-19 lockdowns on food security and smallholder agricultural systems
• Comprehensive explorations of crop diversification and the impacts of climate variability on food security in Indonesia
• Practical discussions of water conservation agriculture and the quality of irrigation water for sustainable agriculture development in India
• In-depth examinations of geoinformatics, artificial intelligence, sensor technology, and big data

Perfect for academics, scientists, environmentalists, and environmental consultants, Sustainable Agriculture Systems and Technologies will also earn a place in the libraries of computing experts working in the field of agricultural science.
