Abstract

SummaryFarmer adoption of so‐called Precision Agriculture (PA) or ‘smart’ technologies in the arable sector has grown in the last few decades with a focus on Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and variable rate technologies (VRT). This has led to increased generation of large volumes of data about fields and their crop yields which could be used to increase the environmental and financial performance for farmers. However, survey results show that cost and adaptability have been issues for many farmers in the UK and Germany that have held back such adoption. The LINKDAPA (LINKing multi‐source Data for Adoption of Precision Agriculture) project's approach sought to minimise both concerns by creating a customisable web platform that incorporates both GNSS and VRT into one, easy to use, affordable option for farmers. The project developed an online cloud‐based decision support tool which takes into account different fertiliser strategies based on novel algorithms using soil, historic yield and satellite data. Co‐created by researchers, farmers and agricultural technology firms, the LINKDAPA approach offers both economical and easy to implement solutions for farm management to mitigate resource loss‐ratios such as in fertiliser use, provide financial performance analyses, and multi‐year graphical imagery for soil mapping.

优化德国和英国耕地农民的精准农业选择:LINKDAPA 方法
摘要在过去的几十年里,农民在可耕领域采用所谓的精准农业(PA)或 "智能 "技术的情况越来越多,重点是全球导航卫星系统(GNSS)和变速技术(VRT)。由此产生了更多有关田地及其作物产量的大量数据,这些数据可用来提高农民的环境和经济效益。然而,调查结果显示,对于英国和德国的许多农民来说,成本和适应性一直是阻碍采用这些技术的问题。LINKDAPA(LINKing multi-source Data for Adoption of Precision Agriculture)项目的方法是创建一个可定制的网络平台,将 GNSS 和 VRT 整合到一个易于使用、农民负担得起的选项中,从而最大限度地减少这两个问题。该项目开发了一个基于云的在线决策支持工具,该工具利用土壤、历史产量和卫星数据,根据新颖的算法考虑到不同的施肥策略。LINKDAPA 方法由研究人员、农民和农业技术公司共同创建,为农场管理提供了既经济又易于实施的解决方案,以降低肥料使用等资源损失率,提供财务绩效分析,以及用于土壤制图的多年期图形图像。

期刊介绍: EuroChoices is a full colour, peer reviewed, outreach journal of topical European agri-food and rural resource issues, published three times a year in April, August and December. Its main aim is to bring current research and policy deliberations on agri-food and rural resource issues to a wide readership, both technical & non-technical. The need for this is clear - there are great changes afoot in the European and global agri-food industries and rural areas, which are of enormous impact and concern to society. The issues which underlie present deliberations in the policy and private sectors are complex and, until now, normally expressed in impenetrable technical language.
