Knowledge base creation for nitrogen fertilization towards crops

Abstract

The use of intelligent technologies for the systematization of agrotechnological knowledge, by creating a specialized software system for storing and presenting knowledge in the field of crop production, represents one of the most promising areas for improving the efficiency of agricultural production planning. The paper deals with the relevant issues of creating a knowledge base for information support system of the operator’s activities on the mineral fertilizer application. The increased requirements for modern agriculture to be resource-saving and environmentally friendly stem from the development of this direction. The software LogicGem, an easy-to-use tool for creating, editing, checking and compiling decision table logic, was used to build a knowledge base.
