A Crop Recommendation System to Improve Crop Productivity using Ensemble Technique

A Framework of Information Technology Based Agriculture Information Dissemination System to Improve Crop Productivity

Indian farming community is facing a multitude of problems to maximize crop productivity. In spite of successful research on new agricultural practices concerning crop cultivation, the majority of farmers is not getting upper-bound yield due to several reasons. One of the reasons is that expert/scientific advice regarding crop cultivation is not reaching farming community in a timely manner. It...

Modeling Crop Water Productivity Using a Coupled SWAT–MODSIM Model

This study examines the water productivity of irrigated wheat and maize yields in Karkheh River Basin (KRB) in the semi-arid region of Iran using a coupled modeling approach consisting of the hydrological model (SWAT) and the river basin water allocation model (MODSIM). Dynamic irrigation requirements instead of constant time series of demand were considered. As the cereal production of KRB pla...

Survey: Crop Classification using Transform Domain Technique

Crops are highly cultivating all around the world and vary depending upon the quality of the land in each country. Crop classification is necessary to tell what crops they are and if they are good for that specific area. This classification will help agronomists to decide crop pattern and cultivation practice. Plants are a major source of food stuff, medicine and industry. However it is an impo...

Diversifying crop rotations with pulses enhances system productivity

Agriculture in rainfed dry areas is often challenged by inadequate water and nutrient supplies. Summerfallowing has been used to conserve rainwater and promote the release of nitrogen via the N mineralization of soil organic matter. However, summerfallowing leaves land without any crops planted for one entire growing season, creating lost production opportunity. Additionally, summerfallowing ha...
