This concept is not new. What is new is the ability to automate data collection and documentation and the utilisation of this information for strategic farm management decision in the field operations through mechanisation, sensing and communication technology.... The term means different things to different people. To some, PF means using satellite, sensors and field or thematic maps. PF is in fact a comprehensive system designed to optimize agriculture production by carefully tailoring soil and crop management to fit the different conditions found in each field while maintaining environmental quality(Blackmore, et. al, 1994). 2, record 1, English, - precision%20agriculture

Control closure... Tear bands... employ a locked band to prevent cap removal. Access is accomplished by completely removing the band from the container. Frequently a protruding tab is evident for the consumer to grasp and commence tearing. Many non threaded TE closures utilize this type, such as the press-on friction fit closures found on milk containers. The closure is removed by tearing off the lower skirt, which overrides a bead on the container finish. 5, record 3, English, - tear%20band

Les notions de «bague d'inviolabilité» et de «bande d'inviolabilité» déjà proposées comme synonymes de «bague d'arrachage» ne peuvent être retenues en raison de leur nature générique. En effet, celles-ci peuvent aussi s'appliquer à un système de fermeture inviolable qui permettrait à la bague ou à la bande de demeurer sur le récipient. À la rigueur, on pourrait aussi dire d'une bande d'inviolabilité qu'elle peut prendre la forme d'un manchon thermorétractable. 5, record 3, French, - bague%20d%27arrachage

Archimedes found the area of a parabolic sector by dividing the sector into a sequence of ever smaller triangles whose areas decrease in a geometric progression... By continuing the progression, Archimedes could make the triangles fit the parabola as closely as he pleased-exhausting the figure, so to speaks.(His approach thereby came to be known as the method of exhaustion.) When he added the areas of the individual triangles, Archimedes noted that their total area approached 4/3 the area of the first triangle in the sequence... 2, record 4, English, - method%20of%20exhaustion
