1. Assessment of Nitrogen Fertilization in Tunisian Wheat Production Using Proximal and Remote SensingThe cereal sector in Tunisia covers wide areas in the country from sub-humid to semi-arid zones; most of the fields are rainfed. The sector is suffering from climate change impacts in term of rainfall amount and pattern. Water management policy in the country prioritizes allocating surface water to domestic uses than irrigation. On the other hand irrigation using groundwater (e.g. in Kairouan) continue to over use the water table with an average drawdown of 5 m/year. Because of this, low effi... M. Mechri, O. Alshihabi, H.

2. Optimizing Durum Wheat Nitrogen Nutrition Index (NNI) Prediction Through Sentinel-2 Vegetation Index IntegrationNitrogen is crucial for durum wheat growth and productivity, but excess or insufficient levels can harm both the environment and farmers' finances. Remote sensing offers rapid, cost-effective, and nondestructive ways to assess crop nutrition, with vegetation indices (VIs) indicating plant health. This study aims to enhance the accuracy of durum wheat nitrogen status prediction by investigating modified formulations of Nitrogen Nutrition Index (NNI) coupled with various vegetation indices ...

3. Comparative Study on Precision Nitrogen Management for Wheat Using Greenseeker, Chlorophyll Meter and Leaf Color Chart Based on Spectral Characteristics of LeavesCollecting results on nitrogen (N) uptake throughout the growing season using tools such as GreenSeeker optical sensor, chlorophyll meter and Leaf Color Chart (LCC) holds great promise for optimizing N fertilizer management in cereal crops. To investigate this further, field experiments were conducted over two consecutive winter seasons (2017/2018 and 2018/2019) on wheat at the Experimental Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University, located in Giza Governorate, Egypt. The primary o... A. Soaud, E. El-metwally , A. Ali, R. Sayed |
4. Use of “FertiEdge” Application for Optimizing Wheat FertilizationWheat is a crop of global importance, and effective fertilization is crucial to maximize yield and quality. Traditional methods of fertilization often result in under- or over-application of nutrients, resulting in environmental problems and suboptimal crop yields. FertiEdge is a digital application that provides accurate fertilization recommendations based on real-time data, it’s an innovative tool designed to enhance the efficiency of wheat fertilization. This study evaluates its impa... I. Sbai, F. Sehbaoui, M. Hmimou |
