Precision farming involves using new technologies and collected field information to optimize agricultural practices based on variability within fields. It aims to do the right thing, in the right place, at the right time. This tailors inputs like fertilizers and pesticides based on conditions and can improve crop yields while reducing costs and environmental impact. Precision farming uses tools like GPS, GIS, sensors and software to gather and analyze data on soil properties, climate and crop conditions to develop customized farm management plans. While promising, precision farming faces challenges in adoption related to costs, farm size and lack of expertise in developing countries.

Precision agriculture involves collecting data about variability within fields in order to make targeted management decisions in smaller subfield areas. It utilizes technologies like GPS, GIS, yield monitors, and remote sensing to gather and analyze spatial and temporal data on factors like soil composition, crop yields, and pest populations. This allows for more efficient and environmentally friendly practices like variable rate application of inputs tailored to each subfield's specific needs, reducing costs and increasing yields. While the concept has existed for hundreds of years, recent technological advances have enabled much finer-scale data collection and analysis, driving improved management precision.
Precision farming
Precision farming uses technology like GPS, GIS, remote sensing, and variable rate application to optimize crop production by accounting for spatial and temporal variability within fields. It involves accessing variability through soil sampling and mapping, then managing that variability using tools like variable rate technology, site-specific planting, and nutrient management. This contrasts with traditional farming which treats entire fields uniformly without consideration for variability. The goal of precision farming is to improve crop yields and quality while reducing costs, waste, and environmental impact.
AGRI 1171_Precision Agriculture.pptx
Precision agriculture involves collecting data about variability within fields in order to make targeted management decisions on a sub-field level. This allows for more efficient use of inputs like fertilizer and chemicals by varying application rates within a single field based on differences in soil type, crop growth, and other factors. While the concept has existed for hundreds of years, recent technologies like GPS, GIS, sensors, and data analysis software have enabled much more precise data collection and implementation at scale. Potential benefits include cost savings from reduced input usage, improved environmental stewardship, and increased economic returns through optimized field management.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Use of GIS in Agriculture
- 2. 19-GIS-20
- 3. Why We Use GIS system in Agriculture: 1. Protect crops 2. To calculate cultivated area 3. Solve crop issues 4. For annual harvesting yield 5. For annual crop lost 6. Detect the damage crop area 7. What this weather could do to crops 8. Could move fields to better geographic locations
- 5. • In GIS we use drones and satellite to get accurate information about agriculture,
- 6. GIS In Agriculture • GIS systems are used now a days to protect crops, solve crop issues, and investigate crop damage as well as give farmers an easy way to access information about their crops season by season. • GIS in agriculture helps farmers to achieve increased production and reduced costs by enabling better management of land resources. • By using GIS in agriculture, farms can be more profitable because informed farmers can achieve higher crop yields and they can reduce waste.
- 8. How GIS system in Agriculture works? • While natural inputs in farming cannot be controlled, they can be better understood and managed with GIS applications. • The use of GIS in agriculture is all about analyzing the land, visualizing field data on a map, and putting those data to work. • A central issue in agricultural development is the necessity to increase productivity, employment, and income of poor segments of the agricultural population, and by applying GIS in agriculture, this situation can be addressed.
- 9. Strategic Uses Of GIS In Agriculture: 1. Strategic Planning GIS can present combinations of map layers to address different agricultural problems. For example: Depending on the size of their farm and presence of factors that are important to the type of farm, a farmer might view and analyze GIS maps of • Soil properties • Average rainfall • Elevation and more, all in one map. Using these detailed maps, they can plan the most efficient and cost-effective way to use their land.
- 11. 2. Water Management Another important use for GIS in agriculture is water management. • Using GIS, the farmer can determine where rain water is draining too quickly or too slowly so that either engineering steps can be taken to reroute its flow, or chemicals can be applied to improve the internal drainage of the soil. • In areas where the water flows too quickly, the result can be crop loss and soil erosion. • In areas where water flows too slowly, crop growth could be hampered, sometimes referred to as plants having ‘wet feet’.
- 13. 3. Suitability Mapping Soil characteristic maps can help with crop planning. • A map of soil themes such as salinity, internal drainage, pH and various aspect of soil chemistry that are important to the crop • A farmer is planning on planting, can provide an important information backdrop for understanding whether or not a crop will grow successfully in an area.
- 15. Benefits: • GIS can help increase in food production • Time availability of crop statistics for decision making and planning • Crop growth monitoring • Soil status monitoring • Regular reports regarding total area under cultivation
- 17. Drawbacks: 1. GIS tools are expensive. 2. Learning curve on GIS software can be long. 3. It shows spatial relationships but does not provide absolute solutions. 4. Integration with traditional map is difficult. 5.It (Desktop GIS) requires efficient processor and higher storage space.
