Decision support systems and models for aiding irrigation and nutrient management of vegetable crops
Vegetable growers in Europe are continually under increasing pressure to optimize irrigation and nutrient management. This results from the widespread effects of climate change and of competition from other sectors for water, and increasing soci[...]Article
Analysis of energy consumed and greenhouse gases (GHG) emitted by farming systems is considered an important part of an environmental performance's evaluation, especially within an agroecological context. In this study, we focused on the aspects[...]Article
As a result of the growing awareness of the need to prevent food waste, several initiatives have been launched in the last few years to reduce food waste generated across the food supply chain. However, the evaluation of food waste prevention in[...]Article
B. Coluccia ; D. Valente ; G. Fusco ; F. De Leo ; D. Porrini |Agriculture plays a key role in providing a wide range of ecosystem services, such as food, feed, fiber and biofuel, thus taking part in the economic development of countries. On the other hand, this sector also gives rise to negative externalit[...]Article

Reidsma |Many farming systems in Europe are struggling to respond to accumulating economic, environmental, institutional and social challenges. From a resilience perspective, they need three distinct capacities to continue delivering products, income and[...]Article
I. Coteur ; H. Wustenberghs ; L. Debruyne ; L. Lauwers ; F. Marchand |A multitude of farm-level sustainability assessment tools (SATs) exists, reflecting a variety of agricultural practices and sustainability perceptions. Tools differ and insight is lacking about how they match with farmers' needs. This paper exam[...]Article
A. Berardy ; T. Seager ; C. Costello ; C. Wharton |Researchers use life cycle assessment (LCA) to evaluate the environmental impacts of foods, providing useful information to other researchers, policy-makers, consumers, and manufacturers. However, LCA is ill-equipped to account for desirable, of[...]Article
A. Elbeltagi ; J. Deng ; K. Wang ; Y. Hong |Modeling crop water use as a useful decision tool for agricultural policy decision-makers to improve water-use efficiency has been increasing. This study aimed to estimate, forecast, and model the green and blue water footprints (WFg and WFb, re[...]Article
V. Arulnathan ; M.D. Heidari ; M. Doyon ; E. Li ; N. Pelletier |In response to the recognized importance of agri-food systems for sustainable development, a variety of sustainability assessment methods for agri-food production have been developed. These sustainability assessment methods vary in their scope, [...]Article

Demarez |In the context of monitoring and assessment of water consumption in the agricultural sector, the objective of this study is to build an operational approach capable of detecting irrigation events at plot scale in a near real-time scenario using [...]Article
The use of satellites to monitor crops and support their management is gathering increasing attention. The improved temporal, spatial, and spectral resolution of the European Space Agency (ESA) launched Sentinel-2 A + B twin platform is paving t[...]Article
Participants in agricultural land markets require comprehensive statistics in order to make informed decisions in relation to agricultural land and the associated production. The publication of such data supports land mobility, the competitivene[...]Article
Z. Zhai ; J.F. Martínez ; V. Beltran ; N.L. Martínez |Undoubtedly, high demands for food from the world-wide growing population are impacting the environment and putting many pressures on agricultural productivity. Agriculture 4.0, as the fourth evolution in the farming technology, puts forward fou[...]Article
Two thirds of human water use is linked to agricultural practices including crop irrigation. Furthermore, excess irrigation leads to drainage problems. For this reason, reduced irrigation strategies need to be implemented to protect water resour[...]Article
