1. Ear Deployed Accelerometer Behaviour Detection in SheepAn animal’s behaviour can be a clear indicator of their physiological and physical state. Therefore as resting, eating, walking and ruminating are the predominant daily activities of ruminant animals, monitoring these behaviours could provide valuable information for management decisions and individual animal health status. Traditional animal monitoring methods have relied on human labor to visually observe animals. Accelerometer technology offers the possibility of remotely monitoring ... J.D. Barwick, M. Trotter, D.W.

2. Report on Research and Extension of Precision Agriculture in JapanThe objective of this report is to present the current status of precision agriculture and smart agriculture in Japan. As of 2023, there are approximately 150 precision agriculture-related venture companies in Japan, and the number is increasing every year. Research related to precision agriculture is mainly conducted by the IT and Mechatronics Subcommittee of the Japanese Society for Agricultural and Biological Engineering, which consists of about 1,...

3. Capacity Building of African Young Scientists in Precision Agriculture Through Cross-regional Academic Mobility for Enhanced Climate-smart Agri-food System: an Intra Africa Mobility Project on Precision AgricultureClimate change is one of the main problems affecting food and nutrition globally, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Adapting to and/or mitigating climate change in the agri-food sector requires merging information technologies, genetic innovations, and sustainable farming practices to empower the agricultural youth sector to create effective and locally adapted solutions. Precision Agriculture applied to crops (PAAC), has been advocated as a strategic solution to mitigate/adapt agriculture ... N. Fassinou hotegni, A. Karangwa, A. Manyatsi, K.A. Frimpong, M. Amri, D. Cammarano, C. Lesueur, J. Taylor, S. Phillips, E. Achigan-dako |
4. Report from Finland - How We Speed Up Innovation Uptake in Agriculture in FinlandFinnish agriculture is rapidly digitalizing. While the number of farms is decreasing, those that remain are increasingly adopting new technologies. Finns have a tradition of being early adopters of mobile technologies, with the Finnish phone company Nokia being a notable forerunner. However, in agriculture, users tend to be more conservative, resulting in lower than expected adoption rates of Precision Farming. The reasons for this are not only financial but also related to the usability issu... H.E. Haapala |
5. 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 patent... P.B. Cano, A. Carcedo, F. Gomez, C. Hernandez, V. Gimenez, I.
