Simulating Polyculture Farming to Learn Automation Policies for Plant Diversity and Precision Irrigation

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering, 2022
Polyculture farming, where multiple crop species are grown simultaneously, has potential to reduce pesticide and water usage while improving the utilization of soil nutrients. However, it is much harder to automate polyculture than monoculture.

The effects of polyculture on behaviour and production of pikeperch in recirculation systems

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2020
Recirculating aquaculture systems (RASs) are seen as a promising technology to address the societal and environmental challenges of aquaculture. However, this technology is mainly used in intensive monoculture and little knowledge is available in ...

Energy flow analysis of in Litopenaeus vannamei-Tegillarca granosa polyculture ponds based on EwE model

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2023
In order to characterize the energy flow and trophic structure of a polyculture pond that contained Litopenaeus vannamei and Tegillarca granosa, we used an Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) model.
