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 ...
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.
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 thermo-hygrograph. A thermo-hygrograph or hygrothermograph is a chart recorder that measures and records both temperature and humidity (or dew point).Similar devices that record only one parameter are a thermograph for temperature and hygrograph for humidity.
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]
Agricultural hydrology is the study of water balance components intervening in agricultural water management, especially in irrigation and drainage. [ 1 ] Illustration of some water balance components
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 ...
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.
