Advances in Intelligent Agriculture

Intelligent Agriculture, also known as e-agriculture, focuses on the enhancement of agricultural and rural development through improved information and communication processes. More specifically, e-agriculture involves the conceptualization, design, development, evaluation and application of innovative ways to use information and communication technologies (ICTs) in the rural domain, with a primary focus on agriculture. In the present book, fifteen typical literatures about intelligent agriculture published on international authoritative journals were selected to introduce the worldwide newest progress, which contains reviews or original researches on Agricultural Electrification and Automation, Agricultural Production, Agricultural Resources, Animal Breeding and Nutrition, Crop Physiology and Science, etc. We hope this book can demonstrate advances in intelligent agriculture as well as give references to the researchers, students and other related people.
