L’une des avancées les plus importantes dans le domaine de l’observation de la terre est la découverte des indices spectraux, ils ont notamment prouvé leur efficacité dans la caractérisation des surfaces agricoles, mais ils sont généralement définis de manière empirique. Cette étude basée sur l’intelligence artificielle et le traitement du signal, propose une méthode pour trouver un indice optimal. Et porte sur l’analyse d’images issues d’une caméra multi-spectrale, utilisée dans un contexte agricole pour l’acquisition en champ proche de végétation.
L’herbe pâturée est l’aliment qui coûte le moins cher dans une ration et la bonne gestion de l’herbe passe entre autre par une connaissance des quantités disponibles. Afin de simplifier et d’automatiser ces mesures d’herbe, et ainsi contribuer au maintien voire au développement du pâturage, le projet HERDECT s’est attaché à construire des méthodes d’estimation de la biomasse des prairies à partir d’outils de télédétection (d’acquisition à distance) et à en estimer la faisabilité opérationnelle.
The purpose of the article is to study the scientific and applied principles of the development of commercialization of innovations in the agro-industrial sector in Ukraine as a direction of support of its leadership positions in the world market of agro-industrial products. As a result of theoretical generalization and comparison of the views of leading scientists, the author‘s approach to the determination of the essence of commercialization of innovations has been substantiated.
This article analyses spatial innovation dispersion and also level of innovation development across the crop sector. For this, five crude indicators viz. Mechanisation indicator, Vulnerability indicator, Concentration indicator, Stability indicator and Adoption indicator were constructed which determined the direction of innovation. Agricultural Innovation System encompasses both the facets of technology development and technology dissemination. However, much concentration and efforts were exerted on innovation and technology development part while the other part i.e.
This paper analyzes the integration of coffee producers into potential sustainability-oriented market segments. The analysis is presented through the lens of value chains by mapping the different coffee chains present in a predominantly coffee growing region, Kodagu, district, India as well as the governance structures that influence interactions and strategies for upgrading
This analysis evaluates a real world complex intervention to study the impacts of an agricultural value chain development program on livelihood outcomes, in hill and mountainous regions of Nepal. The intervention was not designed for the study and no baseline data existed to compare the final outcomes. Data came from a carefully designed household survey administered to 3,028 households (50% beneficiaries and other 50% non-beneficiaries) across seven districts in Western Nepal.
Agricultural machinery manufacturers historically referred to the intermediate players for selling, maintenance, customer service and/or training of equipment appear to interact with farmers and end-users. Intermediate players have therefore faced the burden to master the technology, in constant evolution, and the associated training needs at the interface between sophisticated equipment and the end-user and its sociological characteristics (age, education, background, etc.).
Cet article présente une nouvelle approche à base de logique floue pour évaluer le risque phytosanitaire dans une serre produisant des roses. Le but de cette étude est de fournir à l’agriculteur un indice représentant le risque de présence de nuisible : Western Flower Thrips (WFT) ou Frankliniella Occidentalis, et d’enlever la phase decomptage manuel. Un systéme d’aide à la décision modulaire basé sur la connaissance d’experts a été conçu. Le systéme proposé fournit un facteur de risque en fonction des données météorologiques et statiques.
This study explores the properties of innovation systems and their contribution to increased eco-efficiency in agriculture. Using aggregate data and econometric methods, the eco-efficiency of 79 countries was computed and a range of factors relating to research, extension, business and policy was examined. Despite data limitations, the analysis produced significant results.
The study focuses on how levels of innovation, measured by complexity and investments requirements of the adopted technologies, relates to innovative behavior and complying with social responsibility practices, as two indicators of the farmer's behavior towards innovation. A typology of farmers with different technological
levels was constructed based on multivariate techniques, according to the adoption of seven technologies. The main objective of the study was to relate SR and innovative behavior to the technology clusters
