1. Simulation of Curiosity and Exo Mars Rovers on Agriculture Terrain

Improving agricultural productivity is one of the biggest challenges Agriculture and Engineering face. A possible solution is the creation of soil databases and/or maps to apply precision agriculture techniques, aiming to produce more in the same land, using less agricultural supplies. This practice may be developed with the help of rovers applied to e.g. agricultural data collect, mapping, scouting and supply tasks. However, the rover needs to move and adapt to the terrain to obtain a real appropriate... J.F. Archila-diaz, M. Becker

2. Determinants of Ex-ante Adoption of Precision Agriculture Technologies by Cocoa Farmers in Ghana

The study was to identify the best predictors of cocoa Farmers willingness to adopt future Precision Agriculture Technology (PAT) Development in Ghana. Correlational research design was used. The target population was all cocoa farmers who benefited from Cocoa High Technology Programme (an initiative of distributing free fertilizer by government to cocoa farmers) in Ghana. Multistage sampling technique was used to select 422 out of 400,000 cocoa farmers in the six (6) out of the seven (7) cocoa... M. Bosompem, J.A. Kwarteng, H.D. Acquah
