“…In any case, our findings echo the proposed supports for aquaculture producers in other countries; in Bangladesh, for example, it is proposed to reduce the cost of fish seed and feed and relax transport restrictions to sustain small-scale aquaculture production ( Islam et al, 2021 ). However, unlike aquaculture producers in countries like Malaysia and China, that have stressed the need for produce marketing support ( Azra et al, 2021 ; Zhang et al, 2021 ), Bhutanese fish farmers are mainly concerned about production-related issues.…”

“…The obtained data integration capabilities would in turn facilitate information sharing between farmers, which has been shown to have a positive effect on supply chain collaborations [36]. This would contribute to economic efficiency in various scenarios shared by a wide range of farmers (e.g., [37,38]). Furthermore, a framework of cloudbased agricultural services for data integration can create network effects.…”

A Cloud-Based Framework for Agricultural Data Integration: A Top-Down-Bottom-Up Approach

In recent years, growing use of information technology (IT) and the big data revolution in agriculture have led many farms to adopt precision agriculture methods and to accumulate large amounts of data. Exploiting these data for effective decision support requires the ability to integrate data from various sources, to conveniently analyze the data, and to infer valuable insights. This paper presents a framework for integrating and analyzing agricultural data from various sources, which leverages cloud-computing, thereby contributing to the scalability, flexibility, affordability, and maintainability of the solution compared to existing solutions. The framework defines a functional infrastructure of cloud-based services that facilitate integration, analysis, and data visualization. These services can be either end-user applications or services intended as a platform for creating new services. To design the framework's architecture, we applied a topdown and bottom-up approach. Based on the top-down analysis of information collected through interviews, questionnaires, and literature review, we defined an initial architecture of the framework. We then used this initial architecture to develop different applications, and based on the experience and insights gained and new requirements that were faced, the architecture was revised in an iterative process. We demonstrate the application of the framework through several use cases. Each use case represents different data integration requirements and is based on different services of the proposed framework.INDEX TERMS agricultural services, cloud computing, cloud services, data integration, framework, precision agriculture.

“…Meanwhile, the development of mariculture shellfish products has not only brought significant economic benefits to China, but also promoted the trade cooperation among China, ASEAN, and the coastal countries of "the Belt and Road" (Noman et al, 2018;Zhang and Li, 2022). The production and trade of mariculture shellfish products have been rapidly increasing in China (Zhang et al, 2021). As of 2020, China's mariculture shellfish production has reached 14.8 million tons, accounting for 83.67% of the total global production (The State of World Fisheries andAquaculture 2022, 2022).…”

China is one of the major mariculture countries for shellfish in the world and provides more than 70% of the total global shellfish production. However, there is limited knowledge of the potential driving factors of the ecosystem service value of mariculture shellfish in China. Understanding what factors and how they drive the ecosystem can provide reference for further improving the ecosystem service value of mariculture shellfish, which is both theoretically and practically important for promoting the development of marine fishery economy in China. In this study, data of six major mariculture shellfish species in nine coastal provinces of China from 2009 to 2020 were analyzed using a structural equation modeling approach to quantify the effects of resource distribution characteristics and market demand on the ecosystem service value of mariculture shellfish in China. The results indicated that both resource distribution characteristics and market demand are important driving factors of the ecosystem service value of mariculture shellfish in China. Specifically, from the perspective of path coefficient, market demand plays a more important role (0.58) than resource distribution characteristics (0.36) in influencing the ecosystem service value of mariculture shellfish in China. Therefore, the research results for shellfish marine culture can be summarized as: (1) to actively respond to changes in shellfish market demand, (2) to enhance development planning for coastal shellfish cultivation area, and (3) to strengthen systematic management of mariculture shellfish resources. Results of this study could provide theoretical support and serve as a basis for promoting sustainable development of shellfish culturing industry and fisheries economy in China.
