This volume collects and presents the fundamentals, tools, and processes of utilizing geospatial information technologies to process remotely sensed data for use in agricultural monitoring and management. The issues related to handling digital agro-geoinformation, such as collecting (including field visits and remote sensing), processing, storing, archiving, preservation, retrieving, transmitting, accessing, visualization, analyzing, synthesizing, presenting, and disseminating agro-geoinformation have never before been systematically documented in one volume. The book is edited by International Conference on Agro-Geoinformatics organizers Dr. Liping Di (George Mason University), who coined the term “Agro-Geoinformatics” in 2012, and Dr. Berk Üstündağ (Istanbul Technical University) and are uniquely positioned to curate and edit this foundational text. The book is composed of eighteen chapters that can each stand alone but also build on each other to give the reader a comprehensive understanding of agro-geoinformatics and what the tools and processes that compose the field can accomplish. Topics covered include land parcel identification, image processing in agricultural observation systems, databasing and managing agricultural data, crop status monitoring, moisture and evapotranspiration assessment, flood damage monitoring, agricultural decision support systems and more.

This book explains the best practices and their respective outcomes in artificial intelligence (AI) to meet sustainable development goals and demands. It examines the practices, technologies, and innovations at the core of various research issues to meet the sustainable development demands in agriculture to balance social, economic, and environmental sustainability with AI. AI in Agriculture for Sustainable and Economic Management discusses AI-driven nanotechnology approaches for precision agriculture and solutions for the optimization of farming resources and their management. The authors examine the impact of AI in agriculture and how technology-driven sustainable farming with smart waste-water treatment for zero waste for the circular economy can extend crop shelf-life. It discusses how AI expertise can be advantageous to envisage and evaluate the increasing demands of productivity, and to help to maintain ecosystems and strengthen the capacity for crop adaptation in response to drastic changes in climate and weather, natural disasters, and other significant factors. These findings and practices are also useful to emphasize how an agricultural ecosystem can be advanced and industrialized so that it can aid not only large commercial farms but also smaller farmlands. Finally, it also discusses how AI practices will help to find a balance between the volume of food manufactured and the proper maintenance of the ecosystem. This book is intended for researchers and upper graduate students interested in artificial intelligence in agricultural engineering, AI advances in crop science and technology for sustainable development.

The main goal of the book is to explore the idea behind data modeling in smart agriculture using information and communication technologies and tools to make agricultural practices more functional, fruitful and profitable. The research in the book looks at the likelihood and level of use of implemented technological components with regard to the adoption of different precision agricultural technologies. To identify the variables affecting farmers’ choices to embrace more precise technology, zero-inflated Poisson and negative binomial count data regression models were utilized. Outcomes from the count data analysis of a random sample of various farm operators show that various aspects, including farm dimension, farmer demographics, soil texture, urban impacts, farmer position of liabilities, and position of the farm in a state, were significantly associated with the approval severity and likelihood of precision farming technologies. Farm management information systems (FMIS) have constantly advanced in complexity as they have incorporated new technology, the most recent of which is the internet. However, few FMIS have fully tapped into the internet’s possibilities, and the newly developing idea of precision agriculture receives little or no support in the FMIS that are now being sold. FMIS for precision agriculture must meet a few more criteria beyond those of regular FMIS, which increases the technological complexity of these systems’ deployment in a number of ways. In order to construct an FMIS that meet these extra needs, the authors here evaluated various cutting-edge web-based methods. The goal was to determine the requirements that precision agriculture placed on FMIS.
