Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the current era of civilization development and activities aimed at sustainable development and environmental protection, agriculture and forestry are extremely important areas requiring special care. Providing adequate protection for soil and forest areas is not only important for the production of safe food but also water retention, prevention of droughts, production of necessary oxygen, and absorption of carbon dioxide. To ensure the necessary protection and sustainable development in the agriculture and forestry, it is essential to study and monitor the state of the environment constantly. Therefore, we would like to invite researchers involved in agriculture and forestry to publish their results in a Special Issue of Sensors, titled Sensing and Measurement Techniques Applied in Agriculture and Forestry. Let the publication in this issue be an opportunity to summarize your measurement methods and techniques and a basis for exchanging experience in the field of environmental protection.
