sustainable development of the production in every region requires consideration of energy flow in the production system, moreover, investigating the production system inputs from environmental management point of view is of high importance. in this study energy use and greenhouse gas emissions is investigated. data were collected through interviews with 75 tea farmers and comparing the results...

A control system combining input shaping and feedback is applied to a double-pendulum bridge crane subjected to external disturbances. The external disturbances represent naturally occurring forces, such as gusting winds. The proposed control method achieves fast point-to-point response similar to open-loop input-shaping control. It also minimizes transient deflections and disturbance-induced r...

Gridded model assessments require at least one climatic and soil database for carrying out the simulations. There are several parallel climate development projects that provide sufficient, albeit considerably different, observation based input data crop impact studies. The related uncertainty of Biome-BGCMuSo agro-environmental outputs was investigated using three four different gridded databas...

Intensive agriculture is based on the use of high-energy inputs and quality planting materials with assured irrigation, but it has failed to assure agricultural sustainability because creation ecological imbalance degradation natural resources. On other hand, intercropping systems, also known as mixed cropping or polyculture, a traditional farming practice diversified crop cultivation, uses com...

Global agricultural feeds over 7 billion people, but is also a leading cause of environmental degradation. Understanding how alternative agricultural production systems, agricultural input efficiency, and food choice drive environmental degradation is necessary for reducing agriculture’s environmental impacts. A meta-analysis of life cycle assessments that includes 742 agricultural systems and ...
