1. Landscape Position And Climatic Gradient Impacts On Carbon Turnover in Dryland Cropping Systems in ColoradoSoil organic carbon has decreased in cultivated wheat-fallow systems due to increased carbon oxidation, low carbon input and soil erosion. Implementation of more intensive cropping with no-till management has reversed the trend in soil carbon loss. Our objective in this presentation is to review the effects of landscape position on soil carbon status as related to intensification of cropping system. Our analysis will... G. Peterson, D.

2. Assessing Spray Coverage Variability of an Under-canopy Robotic Sprayer System in Sorghum CropAn under-canopy robotic sprayer system was developed for site-specific pest management in row crops. However, the effect of nozzle type and spray coverage variability at different points within the plant canopy was unknown. The objective of this study was to quantify the spray coverage at multiple locations within the sorghum crop canopy to determine the effectiveness of such robotic systems. The experiments were conducted in a sorghum field in Ashland, Kansas, using XR8001 flat fan and TXVS6... P. Pokharel, A. Sharda, M. Gadhwal, B. Aryal |
