agricultural activities have always been partly responsible for the emission of greenhouse gases and other environmental contaminants in the atmosphere. thus, studying on the environmental effects of agricultural activities and proposing appropriate strategies to mitigate these adverse effects can be paramount importance. in this study, in order to determine the environmental impacts of peanut ...

Production activities exert a negative impact on the environment through emissions of pollutants. Environmental policies aim at the implementation of abatement technologies to reduce these emissions. Cost-effectiveness analysis is often applied as a tool to find abatement strategies that yield a certain emission reduction at minimum direct abatement cost to the producer concerned. The strength ...

in some mobile systems, intelligent antennas are used to increase efficiency in a wide frequency band and different environmental and electromagnetic conditions. environmental factors, such as position of nearby objects, antenna mobility and even user type, can vary the antenna input impedance appreciably. therefore, it is necessary to incorporate an adaptive impedance matching circuit between ...

The Japanese input method is a complex procedure involving preediting operations. An application that accepts Japanese from an input device must have three systems for the input method: a keybinding system, a manipulator for preediting, and a kana-to-kanji conversion system. Various keybinding systems and manipulators accelerate input operations. Our implementation separates an application from...

In this article, a model was developed in which the quantity and timing of input and harvest decisions are endogenous. The endogenous timing model allows all of the information about input and harvest behavior to be utilized, and it provides a basis for linking econometric production analysis to the timespecific analyses in other scientific disciplines used to assess the environmental or human ...

This article concerns the problem and its solution in judging fuzzy rule bases according to environmental reinforcements. We porpose an on-line, incremental credit assignment algorithm , which takes environmental reinforcement as input and assigns credit to individual rules. The proposed approach adopts simple updating policy based on recency-weighted average, and demands only small amount of m...

Olive fruit fly trap measurements are used as one of the indicators for olive grove infestation, and therefore, as a consultation tool on spraying parameters. In this paper, machine learning techniques are used to predict the next olive fruit fly trap measurement, given as input environmental parameters and knowledge of previous trap measurements. Various classification algorithms are employed ...

The following paper suggests that an important evaluation problem in developing countries is assessing the value and optimal use of environmental resources as inputs into production. Essentially, this amounts to determining the best use of land, water and other resources. The paper outlines the simple methodology behind the general evaluation approach, e.g. ensuring the most efficient use of a ...
