Fuzzy decision support system for assessing nitrogen fertilization in agricultural land

Modern conditional agriculture is based on whole field and mostly empirical approaches in defining and applying agrochemical inputs. The impact of fertilizing practices in the environment comprises of a crucial research matter. Soil nitrogen in its nitrate form is the most mobile nutrient, meaning that is easily leached out of soil system, increasing environmental risk.

In this paper, the design and application of a fuzzy decision support system, concerning nitrogen fertilization, is described. The system improves the overall decision process in the field of nitrogen fertilization and consists of two parts; the knowledge base and an analytical modular part. A sensitivity analysis was carried out, in order to assess the importance of selecting, applying and evaluating changes in the input parameters of the system. The system was applied in a set of point data in an agricultural land in Viotia prefecture (Central Greece) and the results delineate the samples into four different fertilizing treatments.

Partizipation betroffener Akteursgruppen zur Minderung der Nitratbelastung des Grundwassers
© Springer Vieweg | Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH (10/2020)
Die Nitratwerte im deutschen Grundwasser sind vielerorts seit über 20 Jahren erhöht. Die EU-Kommission beurteilte entsprechende Gesetzesnovellen der vergangenen Jahre mehrfach als unzureichend. Vorgestellt werden Untersuchungsergebnisse dazu, unter welchen Voraussetzungen kleine partizipative Gremien lokal zu einer Einhaltung der Nitratgrenzwerte in ihrer jeweiligen Region beitragen können.

Regulating Ocean Fertilization under International Law: The Risks
© Lexxion Verlagsgesellschaft mbH (6/2013)
This paper explores the regulatory regime for ocean fertilization under the Dumping regime, which comprises the 1972 London Convention and 1996 Protocol. It assesses the extent to which ocean fertilization is presently subject to mandatory and voluntary controls and provides an overview of the proposals currently under active consideration designed to develop a comprehensive regime for ocean fertilization. Whilst acknowledging the benefits of regulation and the importance of environmental protection, this paper concludes with a warning against considering ocean fertilization in isolation from the broader context of geoengineering and climate change more generally.
