1. Factors Influencing the Timing of Precision Agriculture Technology Adoption in Southern U.S. Cotton ProductionTechnology innovators in cotton production adopted precision agriculture (PA) technologies soon after they became commercially available, while others adopted these technologies in later years after evaluating the success of the innovators. The timing of... D.M. Lambert, J.A. Larson, B.C. English, R.M. Rejesus, M.C. Marra, A.K. Mishra, C. Wang, P. Watcharaanantapong, R.K. Roberts, M. Velandia |
2. Bayesian Methods for Predicting LAI and Soil MoistureCrop models describe the growth and development of a crop interacting with soil, climate, and management... M. Majdi, D. Benjamin, D. Marie-france |
3. Pesticide Application Manager (PAM) - Decision Support In Crop Protection Based On Terrain-, Machine-, Business- And Public DataIntroduction Pesticide Application Manager (PAM) is a project, co-financed by the German Federal Office for Agriculture and Food (BLE) that aims to develop solutions for automating important processes in crop protection. Due to a series of rules and legal requirements for planning, implementation and documentation, crop protection is one of the most... B. Kleinhenz, M. Röhrig, M. Scheiber, J. Feldhaus, B. Hartmann, B. Golla, C. Federle , D. Martini |
4. Fungiprecise - A German Project For Precise Real-Time Fungicide Application In Winter WheatRegarding to real-time or online technologies in recent years, new technologies has been introduced into practical farming especially in the field of nitrogen application. These technologies are based on sensors mainly detecting the canopy reflectance. In the field of plant protection, although few sensor-based real-time technologies in weed control and growth regulator application are marked available, solutions for fungicide application are mostly missing currently. Amongst others... P. Leithold, T. Volk, K. Dammer |
5. Delineation of Site-specific Management Zones Using Spatial Principal Components and Cluster AnalysisThe delineation of site-specific management zones (MZs) can enable economic use of precision agriculture for more producers. In this process, many variables, including chemical and physical (besides yield data) variables, can be used. After selecting variables, a cluster algorithm like fuzzy c-means is usually applied to define the classes. Selection of variables comprise a difficult issue in cluster analysis because these will often influence cluster determination. The goal of this study was... A. Gavioli, E.G. Souza, C.L. Bazzi, N.M. Betzek, K. Schenatto, H. Beneduzzi |
6. Data Normalization Methods for Definition of Management ZonesThe use of management zones is considered a viable economic alternative for the management of crops due to low cost of adoption as well as economic and environmental benefits. The decision whether or not to normalize the attributes before the grouping process (independent of use) is a problem of methodology, because the attributes have different metric size units, and may influence the result of the clustering process. Thus, the aim of this study was to use a Fuzzy C-Means algorithm to evaluate... K. Schenatto, E.G. De souza, C.L. Bazzi, A. Gavioli, N.M. Betzek, H.M. Beneduzzi |
7. SMARTfarm Learning Hub: Next Generation Precision Agriculture Technologies for Agricultural EducationThe industry demands on higher education agricultural students are rapidly changing. New precision agriculture technologies are revolutionizing the farming industry but the education sector is failing to keep pace. This paper reports on the development of a key resource, the SMARTfarm Learning Hub (www.smartfarmhub.com) that will increase the skill base of higher education students using a range of new agricultural technologies and innovations. The Hub is a world first; it links real industry... M. Trotter, S. Gregory, T. Trotter, T. Acuna, D. Swain, W. Fasso, J. Roberts, A. Zikan, A. Cosby |
8. Realising the Full Potential of Precision Agriculture: Encouraging Farmer 'Buy-in' by Building Trust in Data SharingUncertainty around the ownership, privacy and security of farm data are most commonly the reasons cited for farmer’s reluctance to “buy-in” to big data in agriculture. Evidence provided to the recent US Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation Subcommittee on Consumer Protections, Product Safety, Insurance, and Data Security, United States Senate Technology in Agriculture: Data Driven Farming (Nov 2017) highlighted that “data ownership, and related...

9. Akkerweb: A Platform for Precision Farming Data, Science, and PracticeThe concept of precision farming (PF) was formulated about 40 years ago and the scientific knowledge for some applications of PF in The Netherlands has been available for almost 20 years. Also, in many cases equipment is available to implement PF in practice. In spite of all this PF uptake is still limited. An important reason for the limited uptake of PF is in the challenges that must be overcome to let data flow from sensors to data storage, to combine data sources and process them into recommendations,...
