Harnessing rice combine harvester adoption for sustainable agriculture in the Haor (wetland) ecosystem of Bangladesh by Sujan, Md. Hayder Khan, Sarker, Mou Rani, Sarkar, Md Abdur Rouf, Sultana, Monira, Rahman, Md. Sadique, Ahammad, Sharif, Khan, Maruf

“…The probit model analysis revealed that adoption factors encompassed age, yield, upland cultivation, harvester availability, repair services, perceived labour scarcity mitigation, family labour usage and harvesting losses. Propensity score matching confirmed the significant impacts of RCH adoption, showing reductions in production costs (113.97–176.23 USD/ha) and labour usage (30.04–32.08 man-days/ha), along with increased net returns (444.05–503.57 USD/ha) for adopters. …”

Mitigation of the impacts of Rift Valley fever through targeted vaccination strategies by Gachohi, John M., Bett, Bernard K.

“…A decision-support tool for prevention and control of RVF in the Greater Horn of Africa identifies a series of events that indicates increasing risk of an outbreak and matches interventions to each event. Using a 2-host (cattle and sheep) and 2-vector (Aedes and Culex species) RVF virus transmission model, we simulated the impact of vaccinating either 50% or 75% of the host population implemented over a period of 11 and 15 days respectively at different time points identified in the tool. …”

Irrigated areas of India derived using MODIS 500 m time series for the years 2001-2003 by Dheeravath, Venkateswarlu, Thenkabail, Prasad S., Chandrakantha, G., Noojipady, P., Reddy, G.P.O., Biradar, Chandrashekhar M., Gumma, Murali K., Velpuri, Naga Manohar

“…The primary mega-file data-cube (MFDC), comparable to a hyper-spectral data cube, used in this study consisted of 952 bands of data in a single file that were derived from MODIS 500 m, 7-band reflectance data acquired every 8-days during 2001-2003. The methods consisted of (a) segmenting the 952-band MFDC based not only on elevation-precipitation-temperature zones but on major and minor irrigated command area boundaries obtained from India's Central Board of Irrigation and Power (CBIP), (b) developing a large ideal spectral data bank (ISDB) of irrigated areas for India, (c) adopting quantitative spectral matching techniques (SMTs) such as the spectral correlation similarity (SCS) R2-value, (d) establishing a comprehensive set of protocols for class identification and labeling, and (e) comparing the results with the National Census data of India and field-plot data gathered during this project for determining accuracies, uncertainties and errors. …”

The simulated grain yields generally matched with measured values (with prediction error ranging from 0 to 3%), except for plots without nitrogen application, where the model overestimated yields by 9–16%. …”
