“…Applications of mobile devices with multi-tag technologies to automatically associate a field location to the relevant database tables or records, and also to access contextual information or services, were developed for vineyard management (Cunha et al 2010). Systems able to collect land policy information and broadcast it to an office in real time were developed using a number of devices in a smartphone such as GPS or camera (Mesas-Carrascosa et al 2012).…”

Automation in agriculture should improve plant health, product quality, and production efficiency. However the actual use of electronic identification tools in agriculture is limited. Therefore, I review here electronic identification applications to support plant health and production and agricultural sustainability. The major points are as follows: (1) there is a tenfold increase of literature on the application of radio frequency identification in agriculture from 2000-2004 to 2005-2009. (2) Development of quick response code and radio frequency identification solutions are improving automated systems. (3) There is a major advancement in associating thermal sensors to electronic tags to preserve food quality and to manage temperature-controlled supply chain. Whereas tests with biosensors used for biological or chemical alerts are limited. (4) Agrochemical tagging, using radio frequency identification tags, improve plant health management and environmental monitoring. (5) While phytosanitary certifications are mandatory in high-cost cultivation systems and a need for risk management may promote radiofrequency identification (RFID) systems, the lack of specific economic analyses may discourage farmers and investors.

“…Moreover, mobile devices like netbooks, tablet-PCs or smartphones could represent optimal instruments for consulting and updating the virtual orchard from the field, while time-consuming operations can be carried out using desktop devices. Cunha et al [37] described this strategy for contextualized vineyard management, where tags were placed in the field and decoded by mobile devices such as mobile phones or Personal Device Assistants (PDA), and no conceptual or technical limits should involve others plants such as olive trees.…”

Abstract:In many European rural areas, agriculture is not only an economic activity, but it is strictly linked to environmental and social characteristics of the area. Thus, sometimes, a pathogen can become a social threat, as in the case of Xylella fastidiosa and olive trees (Olea europaea L.) in Salento. Fast and systemic response to threats represents the key to success in stopping pest invasions, and proves a great help in managing lots of data in a short time or coordinating large-scale monitoring coming from applying Information Technology tools. Regarding the field of applications, the advantages provided by new technologies are countless. However, is it the same in agriculture? Electronic identification tools can be applied for plant health management and certification. Treatments, agrochemical management or impact assessment may also be supported by dematerialization of data. Information Technology solution for urban forestry management or traceability of commodities belonging to "Food from Somewhere" regimes were analyzed and compared to protection from pests of a unique tree heritage such as olive trees in Salento.

“…2010 that mobile devices have reached a stage of development that makes them potentially able to support farming in a high level, for example in precision viticulture (Cunha et al 2010) or in livestock management (Voulodimos et al 2010). With the recent progress in digital cameras, network bandwidth and information storage capacities, the production (and consumption) of multimedia data has also become an easy task with mobile devices (Joly et al 2015).…”

A B S T R A C TThe latest wave of ICT-innovations are based around mobility (smart phones, tablets, wireless networks etc.). Mobility can be a decisive success factor of ICT-adoption, because of the spatial, local and remote nature of farming. New generation mobile devices can also have a lower barrier to entry in terms of skills and cost for the user/farmer. The question is whether these new devices, especially smart phones and tablets are adopted by the farmers who are already using computers and Internet or they are attracting new audiences as well? The author's research in Hungary on the supply and demand side of the phenomenon shows that the "agri-app-economy" is still in its infancy, and both the supply and demand side are reflecting the current state and the earlier development of ICT-usage in agriculture. At the moment, new generation of mobile devices are not acting as a tool to overcome earlier and existing barriers of adoption, rather as an indicator of the general level of ICT-use in agriculture. Mobile devices are mainly used by "tech-savvy" farmers, as a general purpose technology -partly because of the lack of relevant applications in agriculture.
