Evaluation of new pivoting linear‐move precision irrigation machine
Irrigation and Drainage, Volume 72, Issue 4, Page 922-933, October 2023., 2023 Abstract Due to population growth, freshwater resources around the world are becoming increasingly scarce, and the water supply in agriculture has emerged as one of the limitations of food production. Variable‐rate irrigation (VRI), a type of precision irrigation, allows water‐efficient irrigation techniques to ensure an optimal water supply.

Muddy waters: Mega‐herbivores as agents of change in African shallow freshwaters
African Journal of Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 722-725, September 2023., 2023 Abstract Large herbivores have been described as agents of change in terrestrial habitats. Their effect on aquatic ecosystems are, however, underexplored. We raise the question of whether elephants and hippopotamus have the potential to significantly alter limnological properties and, indirectly, primary and secondary productivity within small and ...
