The Challenge of Sustainability in Agricultural Systems

Abstract

This paper examines the use of global satellite navigation systems by the agricultural machinery of the Oryol Region as a solution to remote monitoring of transport and technological operations. The statistical study uses data provided by the Municipal District Council of the Oryol Region covering more than 400 agricultural enterprises. This paper establishes that the GLONASS/GPS equipment is used by 35% of the Oryol Region agricultural machinery. For individual municipal districts, the use level varies from 4 to 73%. The impact income level of an enterprise positively affects the number of vehicles equipped with navigation systems. This correlation is statistically significant. In terms of agricultural machinery type, all types of tractors and motorized transport are the most commonly equipped with satellite navigation systems. However, self-propelled sprayers and fertilizer spreaders, which are essential to farming operations, are poorly equipped with navigation systems. Using quantitative diagnostics (for the first time in the Oryol Region), we classification the municipal districts by the “availability of satellite-navigation-equipped machinery” index. We concluded that 75% of municipal districts in the Oryol Region are average or above-average by this index.
