Digital Precision Agriculture Tool Helps Nepalese Rice Farmers Breakthrough Yield Barriers

Poor rice yields are persistent across the Terai a lowland region lying south of the outer foothills of the Himalayas that extends through southern Nepal into northern India and existing decision support systems are failing to provide the precision required. To date, farmers in the area have lacked the knowledge and support they need to properly plan nutrient applications for their crops. Current nutrient recommendation systems only provide blanket prescriptions that fail to consider the large variability that occurs across their rice-growing landscapes. Nepal s rice yield gaps the difference between actual and attainable yields are widening as soil fertility declines, which represents a major threat to the sustainability of these smallhol

El Niño Can Help Predict Cacao Harvests Up to 2 Years in Advance

Cocoa Care and T. Oberthür When seasonal rains arrive late in Indonesia, farmers often take it as a sign that it is not worth investing in fertilizer for their crops. Sometimes they opt out of planting annual crops altogether. Generally, they re making the right decision, as a late start to the rainy season is usually associated with the state of El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and low rainfall in the coming months. Scientific Reports shows that ENSO, the weather-shaping cycle of warming and cooling of the Pacific Ocean along the equator, is a strong predictor of cacao harvests up to two years before a harvest.
