Agriculture and Aquaculture Applications of Biosensors and Bioelectronics (9798369320693)(文景書局)

ISBN: IGI97920693　Year: 2024 　Price: US$ 265.00

Author: Alex Khang

A b s t r a c t

Agriculture and Aquaculture Applications of Biosensors and Bioelectronics presents the recent developments in biological recognition elements, transducer materials, and signal processing techniques for biosensors and bioelectronics used in agriculture and aquaculture applications. Sophisticated biosensors and bioelectronics operate through the immobilization of biological recognition components—such as enzymes or antibodies—on a transducer surface. This immobilization process allows for the targeted recognition and binding of biomolecules or pathogens. The resulting electrical, optical, or chemical changes triggered by the recognition event are quantifiable through various methods and are often enhanced by applications utilizing artificial intelligence (AI). The necessity for high sensitivity and selectivity, the optimization of biocompatibility and stability, and the integration of biosensors with AI-aided solutions are just some of the challenges and opportunities in developing biosensors for high-tech agriculture and aquaculture.

This book focuses on the principles, technologies, applications, opportunities, and challenges of sensors, biosensors, and bioelectronics for agriculture and aquaculture sectors. This book is an excellent resource for the integration of sensors, biosensors, IoT technologies, and drones for overall concepts, principles, models, designs, innovations, developments, and implementation of applications in the high-tech agriculture and farming ecosystem.

Driving Factors for Venture Creation and Success in Agricultural Entrepreneurship(文景書局)

ISBN: 9781668423509　Year: 2022 　Price: US$ 185.00

Author: Mohd Yasir Arafat

A b s t r a c t

The literature on entrepreneurship research has generally ignored the agricultural sector. Few entrepreneurship scholars who are mostly agricultural economists and rural sociologists have contributed in parallel with an isolated body of work without much integration and a larger research agenda. Most of the work in agriculture entrepreneurship focuses on the traditional operations of the sector but lacks the theoretical framework required for a broader conceptual understanding of entrepreneurship in the agriculture sector. There is not much alliance between these two parallel research streams. Theoretical and methodological differences have constrained the interdisciplinary collaboration.

Driving Factors for Venture Creation and Success in Agricultural Entrepreneurship assesses the main themes of agripreneurship, discusses important contextual aspects of the agriculture sector to enhance the understanding of entrepreneurship, and highlights how the key contextual dimensions of the agricultural sector can elucidate some of the less understood aspects of entrepreneurship theory and practice. Covering topics such as agribusiness and farm entrepreneurship, it is ideal for entrepreneurs, agriculturalists, professionals, researchers, students, academicians, and policymakers working in the field of entrepreneurship in various disciplines: management, education, agriculture education, sociology, economics, psychology, and technology.
