Full tillage systems used in many on-farm applications of intensive agriculture greatly impact the productivity of agricultural crops, especially under variable weather conditions experienced today.
Winter months in the northern latitudes can bring significant cold stress to livestock. They must acclimatize to prolonged periods of cold temperatures and sudden arctic blasts of extremely cold weather. Animals with a good body condition score (BCS) and access to shelter are better able to withstand both severe and lengthy cold periods.
Over the last few years, the impact of climate change has increased rapidly. It is influencing all steps of plant production and forcing farmers to change and adapt their behaviors. They must search for new management strategies to make their farming approaches both ecological and economical, with a focus on ROI (return on investment).
In its core, precision agriculture means basing most of the farming management systems on modern technologies. Making decisions based on intuition and sometimes, sheer luck, is replaced with making decisions based on actual, real-time, data. Its main goal is to reduce farmers’ expenses while at the same time helping them produce and earn more and lower the impact on the environment.
Golf course management is more than meets the eye. Before every swing of the golf club happens, a long line of carefully planned steps must be carried out. A proper golf course management and proper turf grass can make a difference in golfer’s play – from lowering the golf scores to reducing handicaps.
