Information technology of the d-e-meter intelligent land evaluating system

Gaal, Zoltan ... [et al.]

In a market economy a modern land evaluation system is indispensable for establishing the system of subsidisation as well as for working out systems for providing loans in the agricultural sector. Such a land evaluation system is, however, also an essential tool in the arsenal of production and environmental policy, and farmers also need it for rational land use and profitable farming in their everyday work. In this work we give a possible solution for an internet-based intelligent land evaluating system which is suitable for planning a precision farming and providing data for every participant either in the economic and the agricultural sector. The main objective of the project is to develop an information system that includes the following: − displaying soil quality by means of maps using on-line GIS tools, − plant production modelling on the basis of soil quality and other criteria (e.g. optimal fertilizer use), − assistance for farmers to fulfil their obligations to provide information on the use of arable land, and providing means for direct communication with the administration agencies of the sector.
