1. Assembly of an Ultrasound Sensors System for Mapping of Sugar Cane HeightIn Precision Agriculture, the use of sensors provides faster data collection on plant, soil, and climate, allowing collecting larger sample sets with better information quality. The objective of this study was the development of a system for plant height measurement in order to mapping of sugar cane crop, so that regions with plant growth variation and grow failures could be identified...

2. Changing the Cost of Farming: New Tools for Precision FarmingAccurate prescription maps are essential for effective variable rate fertilizer application. Grid soil sampling has most frequently been used to develop these prescription maps. Past research has indicated several technical and economic limitations associated with this approach. There is a need to keep the number of samples to a minimum while still allowing a reasonable level of map quality. As can be seen, precision agriculture management... P. Nagel, K. Fleming |
3. You Can Not Manage What You Dont MeasureThe problem of variability in soil nutrient analysis has been studied for years by a number of industry experts; unable to decipher and commercialize hyperspectral soil sensing. Many studies have taken years of testing to account for variability thathas a dramatic impacts on precision of recommendations. The main tradeoff we have identified is between accuracy and precision. Large quantities of raw data are required... K. Fleming, N. Schottle, P. Nagel, G. Koch |
