The agricultural industry is dealing with enormous challenges
across the globe, including the limited availability of arable
lands and fresh water, as well as the effect of climate change.
Machinery plays a crucial role in agriculture and farming systems,
in order to feed the world's growing population. In the last
decade, we have witnessed major advances in agricultural machinery
and technologies, particularly as manufacturers and researchers
develop and apply various novel ways of automation as well as the
data and information gathering and analyzing capabilities of their
machinery. This book presents the state-of-the-art information on
the important innovations in the agricultural and horticultural
industry. It reviews and presents different novel technologies and
implementation of these technologies to optimize farming processes
and food production. There are four sections, each addressing a
specific area of development. Section I discusses the recent
development of farm machinery and technology. Section II focuses on
water and irrigation engineering. Section III covers harvesting and
post-harvest technology. Section IV describes computer modelling
and simulation. Each section highlights current industry trends and
latest research progress. This book is ideal for those working in
or are associated with the fields of agriculture, agri-food chain
and technology development and promotion.
