This document discusses the application of remote sensing techniques in monitoring crop fields for site-specific crop management. Periodic satellite imagery from Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2 is used to identify spatial variability in vegetation growth across fields at a medium resolution. Vegetation indices like NDVI and EVI are calculated from the imagery and used to assess crop stands and delineate management zones. High resolution aerial imagery from an Ultracam camera is also used to map fields and guide variable applications of fertilizers and pesticides. Farm telemetry sensors monitor tractor movement, fuel usage, and work logs to optimize farm inputs and machinery utilization.
As part of the final BETTER Hackathon, project partners prepared 4 hackathon exercises. WFP organised this exercise as the challenge promoter for the Food Security thematic area.
This open exercise featured the use of Binder and purposely provided cloud resources. Participants were expected to be familiar with the Jupyter environment (Python 3) and the most common EO libraries (e.g. GDAL) and were guided to use their favourite approach (e.g. pixel-based or object-based classification) to derive a crop type map for the region using the following combinations of datasets: S2 unfiltered – benchmark, S2 filtered, S2 unfiltered + SAR, S2 filtered + SAR. Libraries used included Rasterio / GDAL, pandas + numpy, scipy, numba, keras / tensorflow / opencv. The recorded part includes the introduction of the exercise in the context of the BETTER project.

MUSHNOMICS presentation at ICT-AGRI-FOOD End-term seminar, that was held in Warsaw, Poland, between January 31st and February 1st. The seminar served as a platform for knowledge exchange, project presentations, and the cultivation of valuable connections within the agricultural technology sector. Our colleagues, Dr. Dimitrios Argyropoulos from the University College of Dublin and Dr. Bhim Bahadur Ghaley from the University of Copenhagen, represented the MUSHNOMICS project, presenting the remarkable results achieved over the course of our three-year journey.
During the seminar, our dedicated team members showcased the outcomes and advancements made within the MUSHNOMICS project. This initiative, focused on mushroom cultivation and sustainable agricultural practices, has successfully developed innovative solutions, including mushroom growing cabinets, spent mushroom substrate utilization strategies, and composting recipes tailored for oyster mushroom cultivation. The presentation provided insights into the project's impact and contributions to the broader agricultural landscape.
Drone technology has left a long-lasting impact on the Agriculture industry of India and its efficiency. We present drone-powered solutions to farmers to increase productivity in crop monitoring to planting, Livestock Management, Pesticide Spraying, Crop Stress identification, Treatment Planning, Plant Growth Monitoring, Precision Farming, Scouting and much more.
We use high-tech Aerial Surveying drones equipped with advanced sensors, such as RGB and Multispectral Sensors , to procure precise data. Drones such as DJI Inspire 2 accumulate high-resolution crop data to identify any issues with the crops and notify them for immediate action before damage occurs. Geo-tagging Aerial Images provide valuable information that reduces cost and boosts yield by a significant percentage.
Agriculture plays a dominant role in economies of both developed and undeveloped countries. Agricultural remote sensing is not new, starts in back 1950s, but recent technological advances have made the benefits of remote sensing accessible to most agricultural producers. Pakistan is a country of different agro-climatic regions.
The soil is a major part of the natural environment and is vital to the existence of life on the planet.
Satellite imagery will provide the visible boundaries of soil types and a shallow penetration of soils.

Precision Farming (PF) is introduced and history in short is reviewed. Essential activities of GPS locating, soil mapping, GIS dataprocessing and presentation and VRT application are described. Basic principles of PF are shown to be:
• Precision Farming is the management process of within-field variability.
• This management must bring profit or at least reduce the risk of loss
• This management must reduce the impact of farming on environment.
Techniques used in Precision Farming are described. Economics of Precision Farming is discussed. A general cost/benefit analysis and profitability of PF are reviewed. The price of PF adoption facing a farmer is discussed. Methods of process analysis and activity based costing are shown as useful instruments for PF process analysis and model building. PF process is analysed and process graph is developed.
