Natural Resource Conservation and Crop Management Expert Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
Crop management can be defined as the set of agricultural operations that produce the crop. Soil and water science experts, plant pathologists, entomologists, agricultural scientists, and breeders all contribute to these operations. Soil and water conservation are also important factors in crop management. It is important that reliable methods of crop management be transferred to growers in an efficient way. From an examination of the existing systems for knowledge and experience transfer, we found that they depend mostly on extension documents (leaflets that contain instructions to growers) and direct communication between extension agents and growers. The limitations of the conventional extension system are due mainly to the fact that these documents and

Potential Assessment of ANNs and Adaptative Neuro Fuzzy Inference systems (ANFIS) for Simulating Soil Temperature at diffrent Soil Profile Depths
Objective: Soil temperature serves as a key variable in hydrological investigations to determine soil moisture content as well as hydrological balance in watersheds. The ingoing research aims to shed lights on potential of artificial neural networks (ANNs) and Neuro-Fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) to simulate soil temperature at 5-100 cm depths. To satisfy this end, climatic and...

متن کاملMaize productivity and nutrient use efficiency in Western Kenya as affected by soil type and crop management
Low soil fertility and high weed infestation are the main culprits for the declining maize production inWestern Kenya. Technology packages to address these constraints exist, but their effectiveness is likely to be influenced by variability in soil types and farm management practices in the region. Trials were conducted during the 2008/2009 cropping seasons to investigate the nutrient use e...
متن کاملResource use efficiency of transgenic cotton and peanut intercropping system using modified fertilization technique
Of the several mechanisms that can bring about efficient resource use, the most widelyapplicable one is intercropping systems that can make better use of resources. The aim of thisstudy was to evaluate resource capture and resource use efficiency in transgenic cotton-peanutintercropping system and in their respective sole crops with using 25-50% substitution ofrecommended dose of nitrogen (RDN)...
