1. Potential precision agriculture practices for higher fruit and vegetable production in West Africa: A ReviewDuring the last decades, efforts have been made to increase the yield and the quality of major fruits and vegetables but still, farmers mainly those in West African countries are struggling to close the yield gap. Precision agriculture has been reported in most developed countries as a set of tools integrating information and technologies for efficient crop production. Over the decades, scholars have been skeptical about the development and implementation of precision agriculture in West Africa... V. Fassinou hotegni, L.W. Azonhoumon, E.G. Achigan-dako |
2. Mapping of micronutrients status in soils under multivarietal Citrus sinensis production for precision agricultureCitrus production in Nigeria is below the world average; and this is caused among other things by poor soil management. The situation is further acerbated by blanket fertilizer application and low application of precision in soil fertility management. A study was carried out on a 34 year old multi varietal citrus orchard under sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) to determine the current soil fertility status and variability of micronutrients. Soil samples were collected at a sampling depth... B.N. Okafor, B.N. Okafor, V. Aduaramigba, O. Denton |
