Abstract

In the era of globalization and rapid population growth, agricultural land in urban areas is increasingly limited. As a country with a high population density, the Netherlands has adopted vertical farming innovations using modern hydroponics as an alternative to increasing the efficient use of space and resources. This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of hydroponic vertical farming in urban areas in the Netherlands as a sustainable solution. Specifically, this research focuses on measuring the increase in productivity and reduction in environmental impact compared to traditional farming methods. This research uses a quantitative approach with an experimental design. Data were collected from several vertical farming locations in the urban Netherlands. Variables measured include plant productivity, water use, and carbon emissions. Data analysis was carried out using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results show that vertical farming with modern hydroponics in Dutch urban areas increases crop productivity by 40% and reduces water use by 60% compared to traditional agriculture. In addition, energy use is significantly reduced, which contributes to reduced carbon emissions. Vertical farming using modern hydroponic systems in Dutch urban areas offers an efficient, sustainable solution. By increasing productivity and reducing resource use, this technology could answer future agricultural challenges in dense urban areas. Further research is needed to optimize this technology and adapt it to various geographic and climatic conditions.

Abstract

Agriculture in Asia faces challenges in meeting increasing food needs due to population growth. Conventional farming methods are often less efficient and unsustainable. Precision agricultural technology, especially the Internet of Things (IoT), offers solutions to significantly increase farm productivity and efficiency. This research aims to explore the potential application of IoT technology in precision agriculture in Asia and analyze its impact on optimizing crop yields. This research uses a case study approach by analyzing the implementation of IoT technology in precision agriculture in several Asian countries, such as China, India, and Indonesia. Data was collected through interviews with farmers, agricultural experts, related stakeholders, and field observations. Research results show that the application of IoT technology in precision agriculture in Asia provides significant benefits, including (1) monitoring soil conditions, weather, and plant growth in real-time, (2) optimizing the use of fertilizer and irrigation water, (3) early detection of pests and plant diseases, and (4) increasing the efficiency of agricultural management. In addition, this research found that adopting IoT technology still needs to be improved by factors such as limited infrastructure, initial investment costs, and human resource readiness. It can be concluded that IoT technology has great potential in supporting the precision agriculture revolution in Asia. Its implementation can optimize crop yields through more efficient and sustainable agricultural management. However, systematic efforts are needed to overcome challenges in implementing IoT technology in the farming sector, such as infrastructure investment, human resource training, and supporting policies from the government

Abstract

Accurate weather prediction and effective agricultural risk management are essential to improve the productivity and sustainability of the farm sector in India. However, extreme climate fluctuations and weather uncertainty pose significant challenges for farmers and policymakers. Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers a potential solution to this problem with its ability to analyze complex data and identify patterns. This study aims to explore the application of Artificial Intelligence in weather prediction and agricultural risk management in India. Specifically, the study seeks to develop AI models that accurately predict weather and recommend appropriate agrarian risk management strategies. In this study, historical weather data, climate data, and agricultural data were collected from various sources. Various AI techniques, such as machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing, are used to analyze data and develop weather prediction and agricultural risk management models. The model is then validated and optimized using test data. The results showed that the developed AI model can predict the weather more accurately than conventional methods. The model can also provide specific recommendations for agricultural risk management, such as proper crop selection, optimal planting timing, and other risk mitigation strategies. This research shows the vast potential of Artificial Intelligence in improving weather prediction and agricultural risk management in India. By adopting AI technology, farmers and policymakers can make better decisions and improve the productivity and sustainability of the agricultural sector.

Abstract

The background of the study is based on the high rate of postharvest agricultural yield loss in Russia, which has had a significant impact on the country's food security and agrarian economy. This yield loss is due to the need for adequate storage and processing technology, thereby shortening the shelf life of farm products and degrading the quality of the crop. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of various postharvest storage and processing technologies in reducing agricultural yield losses in Russia. This research method uses a quantitative approach with primary and secondary data collection. Primary data were obtained through surveys and interviews with farmers and agronomists in different agricultural regions of Russia. Secondary data are collected from official reports, scientific journals, and related publications. Data analysis was carried out using statistical techniques to measure the impact of storage and processing technologies on yield loss rates and the quality of agricultural products. The results showed that applying cold storage, drying, and vacuum packaging technologies significantly reduced agricultural yield losses by up to 30% compared to conventional methods. In addition, this technology also improves the quality and shelf life of agricultural products, thereby expanding market reach and increasing farmers' incomes. The study also found that adopting this technology still needs to be improved in some areas due to a lack of knowledge and high initial investment. The study's conclusion shows that postharvest storage and processing technologies have great potential to reduce agricultural yield losses in Russia. To achieve maximum benefits, awareness-raising and training for farmers and investment support from the government and the private sector are needed. Thus, the application of this technology can contribute significantly to food security and the improvement of the welfare of farmers in Russia.

Abstract

This study conducts a spatial analysis of land use deviations in the Sirimau Sub-district of Ambon City, focusing on the impacts of urbanization and population growth on the implementation of the Ambon City Spatial Plan (RTRW) 2011-2031. Utilizing remote sensing and GIS techniques, the research identifies significant discrepancies between planned and actual land use, driven by economic pressures and ineffective enforcement of land use regulations. The findings reveal that the conversion of agricultural land and protected forests into residential areas poses serious threats to environmental sustainability and biodiversity. The study emphasizes the need for enhanced community involvement, better inter-agency coordination, and stricter regulatory enforcement to address these challenges and promote sustainable land use practices in the region.
