The use of plantations to manage extensive tracks of deforested lands in the tropics is a conservation strategy that has recently received considerable attention. Plantation trees can promote seed dispersal by attracting dispersers and creating favorable site conditions, leading to increased germination and establishment of indigenous trees. Subsequently, plantation trees can be harvested for p...

A flexible high-level control language is an important element in the continued task of introducing mobile agents to new application domains. One such new application domain is the use of a small mobile agent in a agricultural row crop field performing intra-row weeding. This paper defines requirements and scope of a process and behaviour based scripting language needed to control the weeding a...

A field experiment was conducted at the Pulse Research Centre of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Ishurdi, Pabna during Kharif-II season of 2010 to evaluate the efficacy of five herbicides for controlling weeds associated with mungbean (BARI Mung-6). The five herbicides such were: Paraxon (27.6% WV Paraquat dichloride salt), M-clor 5G (Butaclor), Topstar 40 WP (40% Oxadiargyl), Hamme...

in order to study the sowing system, row distance and weeding effect on yield and yield components of intercropped maize with peanut, this experiment was conducted, as factorial based on a rcbd with three replications at the research farm of agriculture center of zabol university (iran) during growing season 2011- 2012. sowing system were four levels including sole maize, sole peanut, 50% maize...

A flexible high-level control language is an important element in the continued task of introducing mobile agents to new application domains. One such new application domain is the use of a small mobile agent in an agricultural field performing mechanical intra-row weeding. This paper defines requirements and scope of a process and behaviour based scripting language needed to control the weedin...

During the course of science education one of the recognizable and desirable changes from a novice to an expert is in their language (knowledge representation). One noticeable change is that of weeding out ambiguous expressions bringing in clarity and rigor. However, this happens not by weeding out the concept names but by choosing more and more accurate linking words (relation names). By focus...

Agricultural robots have the potential to reduce herbicide use in agriculture and horticulture through autonomous precision weeding. One of the main challenges is how to efficiently plan paths for a robot arm such that many individual weeds can be processed quickly. This paper considers an abstract weeding task among obstacles and proposes an efficient online path planning algorithm for an indu...

The experiment was conducted at agronomy farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka from November 2017 to April 2018 investigate the influence weeding regimes on performance white maize varieties. comprised two varieties viz. YANGNUO-3000 and PSC-121, designated as V1 V2 respectively combined with four weed control treatments T0 = No weeding, T1 One hand 60 DAS (days after sowing), T2...

Wheat crop is inhabited by several monocot and dicot weeds which have posed a major problem in wheat production. These not only reduce the quality quantity of produce but also increase cost There management therefore becomes crucial with help proper combination herbicides considering bottlenecks mechanical methods. Thus, field experiment was conducted Rabi season 2016-2017 at research farm Depa...
