Abstract Purpose Agricultural chemicals either used as nutrient inputs for soil fertility or pesticides are creating physicochemical and biological deterioration of the soils and disturbing the agro-ecosystems worldwide.Alarming concerns towards integrated agroecology demand for renewed interest in low-external input-based farming practices.These p
[FE1091] Regulations Governing the Usage of Reclaimed Water as an Alternative Water Source for Agricultural Irrigation in Florida
Fresh water is becoming increasing scarce as the world population here grows rapidly.Reclaimed water from alternative sources can be used to help offset the demand for fresh surface water and groundwater in agriculture.To ensure that pathogenic or trace chemical constituents in reclaimed water do not pose a threat to human health and the environmen
Changes in a Giant Iceberg Created from the Collapse of the Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula, Derived from Sentinel-1 and CryoSat-2 Data
The giant tabular iceberg A68 broke away from the Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula, in July 2017.The evolution of A68 would have been affected by both the Larsen C Ice Shelf, the surrounding sea ice, and the nearby shallow seafloor.In this study, we analyze the initial evolution of iceberg A68A—the largest originating from A68—in
Improving Insulators Detection Accuracy via Image Enhancement Techniques: Case of Indigenous Aerial Image Dataset
The challenging task of insulator monitoring through aerial images is addressed in high voltage transmission network and highlights the limitations of traditional human patrolling with emphasize on utilization of unmanned aerial vehicles UAVs utilizing machine learning algorithms.This research has been accomplished by creating indigenous dataset of
Food policy and economic security of the Russian agricultural sector: Institutional analysis experience
Introduction.The need to adapt agriculture to the conditions of a turbulent external environment requires an increase in the efficiency of state regulation.Solving this problem should be based on rethinking the theoretical and methodological base of the modern food policy effectiveness study from the point of view of institutional analysis.Theoreti
