Special Issue: Advanced Technologies for Precision Nutrient Management

Efficient nitrogen management is critical for balancing agricultural productivity with environmental sustainability. Traditional nitrogen practices often fall short when it comes to evaluating both soil nitrogen availability and plant nitrogen content, or applying fertilizers with optimal timing and spatial accuracy.

This special issue of Computers and Electronics in Agriculture brings together innovative research focused on advanced sensing and application technologies for nitrogen. These tools enable real-time, data-driven decision-making in the field, leading to improved better crop yields and quality, and reduced ecological footprint.

🧠 Topics include:

• Real-time nitrogen sensing
• Remote and proximal sensing of nitrogen status
• Sensing data-driven variable rate application
• Decision support systems for nutrient management
• Data fusion from soil, plant, and sensor sources
