Agrometeorology is the study of weather and use of weather and climate information to enhance or expand agricultural crops or to increase crop production. Agrometeorology mainly involves the interaction of meteorological and hydrological factors, on one hand and agriculture, which encompasses horticulture, animal husbandry, and forestry.
A simple soil moisture sensor for gardeners. Soil moisture sensors measure the volumetric water content in soil. [1] Since the direct gravimetric measurement of free soil moisture requires removing, drying, and weighing of a sample, soil moisture sensors measure the volumetric water content indirectly by using some other property of the soil, such as electrical resistance, dielectric constant ...
The E-agriculture in Action series of publications, by FAO-ITU, that provides guidance on emerging technologies and how it could be used to address some of the challenges in agriculture through documenting case studies. E-agriculture in Action: Big Data for Agriculture [22] E-agriculture in Action: Blockchain for Agriculture [23]
A hygrometer is an instrument which measures the humidity of air or some other gas: that is, how much of it is water vapor. [1] Humidity measurement instruments usually rely on measurements of some other quantities, such as temperature, pressure, mass, and mechanical or electrical changes in a substance as moisture is absorbed.
The Penman-Monteith equation approximates net evapotranspiration (ET) from meteorological data as a replacement for direct measurement of evapotranspiration. The equation is widely used, and was derived by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization for modeling reference evapotranspiration ET 0 .
The Journal of Central European Agriculture (JCEA) is an Open access peer-reviewed scientific journal founded in 1999 by three faculties from Croatia, Hungary and Slovakia. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Today, JCEA is a product of cooperation from nine central European member countries.
Open Agriculture is a peer-reviewed open access scientific journal covering research on all aspects of agriculture, horticulture, plant science, soil science, food science, and related topics. Occasionally, the journal publishes special issues on a specific topic.
In agriculture, data mining utilizes data science techniques to analyze large volumes of agricultural data. Recent technological advancements, such as sensors technology, droness, and satellite imagery, have enabled the collection of extensive data on soil health, weather patterns, crop growth, and pest activity. This data is analyzed to ...
