Localized Farmer’s Information Dissemination System in Nigeria Using Mobile Networks
Journal Title: International Journal of Information Technology and Applied Sciences (IJITAS) - Year 2021, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Agricultural science performs a substantial function in monetary and societal growth in nearly all developing nations. Data on satisfactory excellence is an indispensable criterion for the development of all fields of farming. By means of the speedy growth of Information Technologies (ITs), data and information can be efficiently produced, warehoused, scrutinized, distributed, and utilized to reinforce agriculturalists and agricultural societies to enhance agricultural output and sustainability. Information facilities for agriculturalists at the nationwide and provincial levels are an auspicious novel field of investigation and presentation in the evolving field of e-agriculture. This paper aims to address the challenges associated with the dissemination of localized agricultural information to farmers within a localized region in Nigeria using mobile networks and explicitly examined the application of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in disseminating agricultural information to farmers in Nigeria. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that the government should establish information centers with up-to-date information technology infrastructures and mini-community libraries in all rustic regions in Nigeria where modern agricultural information can be easily obtained by the farmers.

A multi-agent-based approach for address geocoding in poorly mapped areas through public company data
In this study, we present an original method that enhances geocoding systems in poorly mapped areas thanks to public company data and a multi-agent system. In contrast with industrialized countries, many developing count...
A constraint programming algorithm for finding leximin-optimal allocations
In the context of constraint programming, we propose an algorithm solving the following problem: allocate in an equitable and efficient way a finite set of objects to agents each having their own utilities, under admissi...
