1. Increasing Profitability & Sustainability of Maize Using Site-Specific Crop Management in New ZealandPrecision agriculture (PA) tools and techniques have been used in New Zealand (NZ) since the early 1990's. There has been wide-scale uptake of some PA tools such as autosteer; planter and sprayer section control; and variable-rate irrigation. However, there has been a limited uptake of Site-Specific Crop Management (SSCM) using variable-rate seeding, nutrient and lime applications to different Management Zones (MZ). This paper outlines examples of the use of SSCM on maize crops,... A.W. Holmes, G. Jiang |
2. Smartflow: Ai Optimization of Desalination for Sustainable Agricultural Water ManagementLimited access to reliable freshwater sources is a persistent barrier to agricultural productivity, particularly in coastal and arid regions where rivers, lakes, and groundwater reserves are rapidly declining. Farmers in these areas often struggle to meet irrigation demands, resulting in reduced yields and heightened vulnerability to climate variability. Although seawater desalination provides a potential alternative, conventional reverse osmosis (RO) systems are typically too energy-intensive... M. Jamaludin |
