Drone usage for precision agriculture has grown dramatically in the recent years. Since drones can collect data specific to a certain site and assess crop health, they are helpful in precision agriculture. Drone technology helps in preserving soil fertility, reduces overuse of water and pesticides and herbicides, increases productivity and enhances quality, while also assisting in the efficient use of human labour. Aerial seeding and spraying are two uses of drone technology that can help to overcome manpower and cost constraints associated with manual labour. Even though there are some constraints of using drones, drone market will grow as their new applications are realized.

Approximately, 15% of agricultural production costs on-farm are energy-related. A potential solution to more sustainable energy use is a shift toward biofuels from renewable resources. The reduction of greenhouse gas emissions through the substitution of diesel oil with biodiesel depends on the feedstock, the inter-esterification process, the storage period, and ambient conditions. In modern tractors, increased fuel use efficiency (or reduced fuel consumption) has been achieved by power/load matching and the use of variable transmission. Engine management systems that are capable of continuously communicating with the engine and transmission to make appropriate adjustments based on inputs received from the tractor allow for quick and precise responses to changing conditions. As a result, maximum efficiency and productivity can be obtained from the tractor operating similarly to the traditional ‘gear-up and throttle-back’ methods of a proficient operator. The future for autonomous tractors is promising, though not new. Electric-powered tractors are near to commercialization or are already commercially available. Hybrid electric driven tractors present some advantages in terms of increased energy use efficiency and functionalities. Increased efficiency can lead to a reduction in diesel fuel consumption and hence, a concurrent decrease in CO<sub>2</sub> emission. Where the local electricity supply has a low-carbon emission factor, this can also result in significant emission reductions. Small light-weight robotic equipment can potentially perform functions currently undertaken by tractor-drawn and other heavy equipment with high-fuel consumption, provided field operating capacity was not compromised. However, the size and weight limitations inherent in current harvesting and transport technology mean that soil compaction will still be a problem with robotic units. The robotic operation of medium-scale equipment within a precision-controlled traffic farming environment should offer more feasible and energy-efficient alternatives.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7553,"journal":{"name":"Agricultural Research","volume":"14 1","pages":"15 - 33"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s40003-024-00824-5.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143571122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, understanding the impact of this crop on global N<sub>2</sub>O emissions is complicated by the variety of experimental conditions and methods used to quantify these emissions. This study aimed to determine the influence of experimental conditions and methodological approaches on quantifying of N<sub>2</sub>O emissions in soils used for sugarcane production. For this purpose, a meta-analysis of quantitative information on this topic, and published-online up to December 2020 was performed. The average daily N<sub>2</sub>O emission rate calculated in this research was higher than similar studies and the differences were attributed to methodological differences with these references. In addition, results showed that variables associated with sampling and gas concentration measurement had no significant effects on daily mean N<sub>2</sub>O emissions. The evaluation period, soil texture, and the management of synthetic N sources and application rates were the main variables affecting N<sub>2</sub>O emissions. Among the important sugarcane-producing countries United States and India had significantly higher daily mean N<sub>2</sub>O emission (4.5 ± 1.4 and 3.08 ± 0.08 mg N<sub>2</sub>O–N m<sup>−2</sup> d<sup>−1</sup>, respectively) than the global average (1.98 ± 0.4 mg N<sub>2</sub>O–N m<sup>−2</sup> d<sup>−1</sup>). High N<sub>2</sub>O emissions were widely documented in coarse or intermediate-texture soils. It is recommended that to reduce the uncertainty associated with the estimation of cumulative N<sub>2</sub>O emissions the monitoring of N<sub>2</sub>O emissions should include multiple complete growing seasons and include high sampling frequency around the main management practices. The strategies to reduce emissions should focus on the exploration of alternative N fertilizers to urea in sub-traditional doses for sugarcane areas with coarser textured soils. This work provides an important reference framework for the design and development of future research focused on the assessment of N<sub>2</sub>O mitigation options for sugarcane.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7553,"journal":{"name":"Agricultural Research","volume":"14 1","pages":"1 - 14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143571095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings indicated that image analysis and sustainable farming systems held the highest shares within the innovation categories, comprising 26% and 23%, respectively. These segments showcased cutting-edge techniques along with a commitment to environmental stewardship. Notably, rice-centric innovations dominated at 33.33%, underscoring the underrepresentation of high-value crops, livestock, and remote farming sectors.

This revealed a need to acknowledge the agricultural potential present in Visayas and Mindanao, emphasizing the necessity for increased research emphasis in these regions. Furthermore, the study unveiled a fragmented landscape in research contributions, with the majority of contributors representing less than a 5% share each. This fragmentation suggests a lack of cross-institutional partnerships, hindering a holistic and collaborative approach to agricultural innovation. Critical gaps in innovation prioritization and adoption levels were identified, particularly in sustainable practices, precision technologies, non-cereal commodities, and geographically disadvantaged communities. Addressing these gaps requires significant institutional support through modernization policies and localized capacity building programs, ideally facilitated by industry-academia partnerships.

In north-western India, the widespread adoption of conventional irrigation practices within water-intensive cropping systems like “rice-wheat” has led to frightening levels of water shortage and meager economic benefits. Diversified cropping systems, or producing different crops on the same piece of land at once, can increase revenue potential besides saving of irrigation water. Diversified cropping systems can help ensure the environmental and economic sustainability of agricultural operations, which can ultimately improve the livelihood of farmers. In this regard, this study aims to compare three maize-based crop sequences with rice–wheat system under different irrigation regimes. Specifically, rice equivalent yield, water balance, water productivity and net returns were assessed for different cropping systems under varied irrigation regimes. The study findings demonstrate significantly higher rice equivalent yield in maize–<i>gobhi sarson–</i>summer <i>moong</i> sequence under I<sub>1.25</sub>, I<sub>1.0</sub> and conventional irrigation scheduling practice besides saving of ~ 687.5, 462.5 and 800 mm of irrigation water, respectively, compared to the rice–wheat sequence established under conventional irrigation scheduling. The cropping sequence with oilseeds and pulses as component crops, i.e., maize–<i>gobhi sarson</i>–summer <i>moong</i> and maize–potato–mentha + onion has ~ 1.85-times higher water use efficiency under I<sub>1.25</sub> as compared to the R–W cropping under conventional irrigation scheduling. The R–W cropping sequence under conventional irrigation regime resulted in the lowest average net returns compared with maize-based crop sequences established under I<sub>1.25</sub> and the conventional irrigation regime.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":7553,"journal":{"name":"Agricultural Research","volume":"14 2","pages":"387 - 398"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143949494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
