1. Assessment of Nitrogen and Phosphorus Content (NP) in Citrus Trees Using UAV-imagery Derived Vegetation Indices and Machine Learning AlgorithmsMonitoring nutrient status of citrus trees is fundamental to ensure optimum fruit yield and quality. However, this task is traditionally time-consuming and laborious. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), with their high temporal and spatial resolution imagery, are demonstrating a great potential to substitute traditional methods in assessing nutrient status of several crops, including citrus. In this study, we evaluated the performance of vegetation indices (VIs) derived from UAV multispectral images... Z. Abail, H. Benaouda, M. Chikhaoui, H. Benyahia, O. Iben halima, M. Baraka, A.

2. How 20 Years of Precision Agriculture Experience Can Benefit Small LandholdersMost people think only larger farms can benefit from incorporating precision agriculture technologies, when the bigger impact happens with smaller farms. A ten percent increase in crop yield is much more impactful for small land holders for various reasons based upon 20 years’ experience, research, and personal utilization. Incorporating remote sensing, drones, small autonomous robots, and other technologies and practices can help small holders increase yield, crop quality, and free up labor... R. Blair |
3. Smart or Precision Agriculture Technology to Mitigate Climate Change for Sustainable Agriculture DevelopmentAgriculture is one of the economic sectors that affect climate change contributing to Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions directly and indirectly.The main goal of the Precision Agriculture (PA) or Smart Agriculture (SA), hypothesize that the increase in crop production and hence food security can be achieved by enhancing the productivity and efficiency of the presently cultivated soils and reclamation of new lands for crop production. Agriculture remains to be one of Egypt’s most important sectors... A. Belal |
