1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The site-specific management is the technology that considers the natural variability within the same field of factors related to crop growth to improve its management practices such that the agricultural treatments are varied for field's small production zones saving resources and environment, and improving crop quality and size. Since site-specific decisions are not far from the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the concept of processes automation, this work addresses improving the process of spatial variability analysis and thus supporting management decisions by developing a system-entitled EGYPADS-based on the Internet of Things and its enabling technologies. EGYPADS automates data collection, zones delineation according to their land suitability evaluation, and maps generation. The paper addresses a case study of potato crop in a specific area in Egypt, El-Salhia, in which eighty-five sites were chosen as main dataset for the modeling process during different stages of crop growth. Three management zones were recognized of the selected field based on the differentiation in their land suitability characteristics, representing about 5%, 65%, and 30% of the total area, respectively. The structure, screens, and services of EGYPADS are described in this paper. EGYPADS offered services include: management zones delineation using absolute and virtual coordinates, Land Suitability Assessment (LSA), data entry from field in real-time as well as from excel sheets, saving maps in suitable format for variable rate application, real-time and historical data processing, centralized management, and flexible formulation of events and related actions. The implementation of EGYPADS was verified. The system dynamically produces non-contiguous isobands, each representing a specific range of parameter values, and can be properly exported for use by other programs or smart machinery. It was proven that EGYPADS supports more than one land with different geometry, area, location, and number of nodes. EGYPADS was compared with the traditional LSA method, and was found to produce similar management zones.
