1. Precision Agriculture Initiative for Karnataka – A New Direction for Strengthening Farming CommunityStrengthening agriculture is crucial to meet the myriad challenges of rural poverty, food security, unemployment, and sustainability of natural resources and it also needs strengthening at technical, financial and management levels. In this context... U.K. Shanwad, M.B. Patil, V. H, M. B.g , P. R, R. N.l. , S. S, R. Khosla, V.C. Patil |
2. Economically Optimized Site Specific Nitrogen Application Using Data Mining ToolsAgricultural production in terms of economic and environmental demand requires increasingly efficient utilization of resources. Excessive use of nutrients may cause leaching, whereas deficits could lead to impediments in tapping full yield potential. Due to heterogeneity of fields, small-scale application of fertilizer provides means to encounter challenges that could arise and to improve resource efficiency. As part of an ongoing research project, we have investigated the ability... P. Wagner, B. Burges |
3. Spatially Explicit Prediction of Soil Nutrients and Characteristics in Corn Fields Using Soil Electrical Conductivity Data and Terrain AttributesSite specific nutrient management (SSNM) in corn production environments can increase nutrient use efficiency and reduce gaseous and leaching losses. To implement SSNM plans, farmers need methods to monitor and map the spatial and temporal trends of soil nutrients. High resolution electrical conductivity (EC) mapping is becoming more available and affordable. The hypothesis for this study is that EC of the soil, in conjunction with detailed terrain attributes, can be used to map soil nutrients... S. Sela, N. Graff, K. Mizuta, Y. Miao |
