The paper presents considerations regarding inspection and calibration of pesticide application equipment in professional use because according to D 2009/128/EC, in view of ensure the inspection of pesticide application equipment at least once before end of 2016. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents general aspects of recognition and processing algorithms of images, depending on the color, shape or position. Work also includes a summary of the main stages of realization and implementation of algorithms for image processing and recognition, both of the acquired in real time, as well as those previously purchased for analysis and later processing.

In the context of European requirements on polluted sites decontamination from industrial activities, we must develop new strategies with the main target to neutralize the harmful effects on the ecosystem. To implement decontamination technologies, we must considered a first plan that aims improving soil structure by agro-technical works and a second plan that seeks to establish technologies for crop plants that have the capacity to decontaminate and greening the soil. They can cultivate herbal plants, wild plants, legumes that improve the soil through atmospheric nitrogen fixation, trees and shrubs. Growing energy plants brings substantial benefits, by making forestry curtains that prevents soil erosion. The resulted wood can have many uses: in pellets and briquettes manufacture, in furniture industry, etc. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this review are presented advantages and disadvantages about films used in mulch, the main improvements properties of the soli and crops. Using biodegradable films at the expense of polyethylene help to improve the wellfare of plants and human lives. Decreased poisoning the soil and air, reducing greenhouse emissions by eliminating some stages to maintenance of cultures and reducing the effort of gatherin the film because it's decompose.

One of the main challenges of modern aquaculture is to increase the production capacity for fish material simultaneously with reducing the factors that have a negative impact on the environment. For recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) maintaining physico-chemical characteristics of the water at an optimum level for breeding species, is one of the main goals to be achieved in order to talk about what a successful aquaculture means. Studies in the field of recirculating systems underlines the fact that by using high quality food for feeding the fish material, but also by applying a correct management starting with the system design and continuing with its exploitation, a reduction of up to 50% of the quantity of waste evacuated into the environment can be achieved. Technological developments in the field of mechanical filtration in recent decades have contributed in a decisive way in terms of waste water filtration process within a recirculating system, with the aim to improve its quality, but not least significant reduction of waste that are released into the environment. This paper aims to develop a description of the situation that exists at both global and national levels on the range of mechanical water filtration equipment that are used in a RAS.

In the construction of precision seeders, different types of seed-metering devices are used, which differ both from a constructive point of view and also from the point of view of the principle of distribution. This paper presents the factors influencing the seeding precision of seeders for weeding plants, as well as the forces acting on the discharge of seeds in the distribution process of precision seeders.
