1. Adoption and Tendencies of Precision Agriculture Technologies in the Tocantins State, BrazilAlthough precision agriculture is widely used throughout Brazilian crop production, it has not been used to increase the efficiency use of agricultural inputs. Besides, technologies available have not been... L. Bortolon, E. Borghi, A. Luchiari Junior, E.S. Bortolon, A.A. Freitas, R.Y. Inamasu, J.C. Avanzi |
2. Agronomic Opportunities Highlighted by the Hands Free Hectare and Hands Free Farm Autonomous Farming ProjectsWith agriculture facing various challenges including population increase, urbanisation and both mitigating and managing climate change, agricultural automation and robotics have long been seen as potential solutions beyond precision farming. The Hands Free Hectare (HFH) and Hands Free Farm (HFF) collaborative projects based at Harper Adams University (HAU) have been developing autonomous farming systems since 2016 and have conducted multiple autonomous field crop production cycles since a world...

3. Profitability of Regenerative Cropping with Autonomous Machines: an Ex-ante Assessment of a British Crop-livestock FarmFarmers, agroecological innovators and research have suggested mixed cropping as a way to promote soil health. Mixing areas of different crops in the same field is another form of precision agriculture's spatial and temporal management. The simplest form of mixed cropping is strip cropping. In conventional mechanized farming use of mixed cropping practices (i.e., strip cropping, pixel cropping) is limited by labour availability, rising wage rates, and management complexity. Regenerative agriculture... A. Al Amin, J. Lowenberg-deboer, K.F. Franklin, E. Dickin, J. Monaghan, K. Behrendt |
