1. Precision Irrigation To Improve Water Use EfficiencyEfficient water use is the key to sustainable management of water resources. Over irrigating is wasteful and can lead to leaching of fertilizers and other potential pollutants into both underground and surface water supplies, whereas under irrigation leads to reduced yields. The spatial and temporal characterization of crop water consumption is important for efficient management of water resources and allows water delivery to match agricultural demands. Research... S.

2. Environmental Characterization for Rainfed Maize Production in the US Great Plains RegionIdentifying regions with similar productivity and yield-limiting climatic factors enables the design of tailored strategies for rainfed maize (Zea mays L.) production in vulnerable environments. Within the United States (US) Great Plains region, rainfed maize production in Kansas is susceptible to weather fluctuations. This study aims to delimit environmental regions with similar crop growth conditions and to identify the main climatic factors limiting rainfed maize yield, using the state... L.N. Lingua, A.

3. Trends in Agricultural Technology Advancements: Insights from US Patent AnalysisMeeting the demand for food, fiber, and fuel production while addressing environmental concerns and enhancing societal benefits underscores the need to transition to conservation approaches and sustainable intensification pathways in current agricultural cropping systems. Technological advances in agriculture offer promising opportunities to facilitate this transition. Following this rationale, this study aims to analyze prevailing trends in agricultural technology advancements. Active patents... P.B. Cano, A. Carcedo, F. Gomez, C. Hernandez, V. Gimenez, I.
