Utilise UAS and aerial data to enable better business decisions with Harris - seen at EFITA 2017 Develop the skills you need to fully understand your geospatial data and imagery: Our training courses are designed and instructed by subject matter experts in order to take your ENVI and IDL skills to the next level. See: http://harrisgeospatial.co.uk/ ENVI, the premier software for extracting information from geospatial data - seen at EFITA 2017 ENVI is the premier software solution for processing and analysing geospatial imagery, ENVI combines spectral image processing and image analysis technology with a user-friendly interface so users can get meaningful information from imagery. See: http://harrisgeospatial.com/Support/SelfHelpTools/HelpArticles/HelpArticles-Detail/TabId/2718/ArtMID/10220/ArticleID/15485/ENVI-53-Release-Notes.aspx ENVI precision ag toolkit - seen at EFITA 2017 Tight profit margins are nothing new to growers. With a large portion of budgets tied up in fixed costs, satellite, fixed-wing, and UAV imagery are being looked to as a way to loosen the margin squeeze. However, in order to realize the potential that imagery offers, advanced analysis tools like ENVI need to be used to extract actionable information. The good news is that ENVI Crop Science now puts the information available from these scientifically proven approaches into the hands of anyone, regardless of their prior experience with remote sensing. Watch this recorded webinar to learn how ENVI Crop Science can: - Ingest any type of data, from any sensor - Monitor crop health down to the individual plant level - Detect plant stress and target specific field locations for remediation - Monitor crop growth for harvest and yield predictions See: http://harrisgeospatial.com/Company/Events/Webinar/Webinar-Detail/TabId/2721/ArtMID/10251/ArticleID/20973/Effectively-Using-Imagery-for-Precision-Agriculture-%7c-Live-Webinar.aspx Israel Agritech Market Map: 400 Startups Putting The Tech in Agritech See: https://agfundernews.com/israels-agritech-market-map-400-startups-putting-the-tech-in-agritech.html Smart Farming: The sustainable way to food See: http://www.beechamresearch.com/download.aspx?id=1056 IRSTEA, the Institute where Jean-Pierre Chanet, Orlane Gadet and Olivier Naud who so strongly contributed to the organisation of Efita, are working See: http://www.irstea.fr/en/accueil Over 400 partners for GODAN, Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition - seen at EFITA 2017 See: http://www.godan.info/
Glyphosate market to witness major gains via applications in conventional crops, APAC (Asia-Pacific region) to be a prominent revenue contributor Ask for sample copy of this report @ https://www.gminsights.com/request-sample/detail/231 Glyphosate Market size is estimated to exceed USD 6 billion by 2024. Rising food demand along with need to increase yield are key trending factors driving the glyphosate market. Increasing awareness for plant growth enhancers to improve the farm yield will also support the market growth. Benefits associated to funding and grants to attain sustainable agricultural practices has encouraged glyphosate industry demand. Reducing stress along with weed and grass growth control remain key benefits stimulating product penetration. Increasing crop feeding among livestock and rising application scope in bio-fuel production will support business growth. Isopropylamine is the key raw material for glyphosate production, other major ingredients include monoammonium, diammonium and potassium. In APAC, the product is majorly used in maize, wheat, tea, cotton, sunflower, sorghum and cotton to enhance the crop yield. Aerial disaster A Woman & Man Meet... (really macho, this joke…) A woman ran a red traffic light and crashed into a man's car. Both of their cars are demolished but amazingly neither of them was hurt. After they crawled out of their cars, the woman said, "Wow, just look at our cars! There's nothing left, but fortunately we are unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace for the rest of our days." The man replied, "I agree with you completely. This must be a sign from God!" The woman continued, "And look at this, here's another miracle. My car is completely demolished, but my bottle of 75 year old scotch didn't break. Surely God meant for us to drink this vintage delicacy and celebrate our good fortune." Then she handed the bottle to the man. The man nodded his head in agreement, opened it, drank half the bottle and then handed it back to the woman. The woman took the bottle, immediately put the cap back on, and handed it back to the man. The man asks, "Aren't you having any?" She replies, "Nah. I think I'll just wait for the police." Adam ate the apple, too!
