    Despite the increasing population (the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations estimates 70% more food will be needed in 2050 than was produced in 2006), issues related to food production have yet to be completely addressed. In recent years, Internet of Things technology has begun to be used to address different industrial and technical challenges to meet this growing need. These Agro-IoT tools boost productivity and minimize the pitfalls of traditional farming, which is the backbone of the world’s economy. Aided by the IoT, continuous monitoring of fields provides useful and critical information to farmers, ushering in a new era in farming. The IoT can be used as a tool to combat climate change through greenhouse automation; monitor and manage water, soil and crops; increase productivity; control insecticides/pesticides; detect plant diseases; increase the rate of crop sales; cattle monitoring etc. Agricultural Informatics: Automation Using the IoT and Machine Learning  focuses on all these topics, including a few case studies, and they give a clear indication as to why these techniques should now be widely adopted by the agriculture and farming industries.

    Vor 50 Jahren forderte Aretha Franklin «Respect», in den 1990ern rebellierten die Riot Grrrls und heute vermarkten Superstars wie Beyoncé eine sexy Version des Feminismus. Dennoch bleiben Festivalbühnen, Feuilletons und Clubnächte männerdominiert. Dabei gibt es Role Models an jeder Ecke und in jedem Jahrzehnt, in dem Frauen zu Gitarre, Mikrofon oder DJ-Software griffen. Ihre Geschichten werden hier erzählt. Es geht um Selbstermächtigung und Gleichberechtigung, um Drugs & Rock'n'Roll, um Sex und Sexualität. Vor allem aber um Musik. In rund 140 Texten schreiben Journalist*innen, Musiker*innen, Fans und Freunde über Bands, die sie prägten, über Künstlerinnen, die dem Feminismus eine neue Facette gaben, über Lieblingsplatten, Lebens­werke und Lieder, die sie mitgrölen – vom Klassiker bis zum Außenseitertipp.
