1. Appropriate Wavelengths for Winter Wheat Growth Status Based On Multi-Spectral Crop Reflectance DataOne of the applications of remote sensing in agriculture is to obtain crop status for estimation and management of variable rate of inputs in the crop production. In order to select the appropriate wavelengths related... I. Han-ya, K. Ishii, N. Noguchi, V. Rasooli sharabian |
2. Remote Sensing Imagery Based Agricultural Land Pattern Extraction around Miyajimanuma WetlandThis research aimed to extract agricultural land use pattern around the Miyajimanuma wetland, Hokkaido, Japan. By combining the image segmentation technology - watershed transform and image classification technology- particle swarm optimization (PSO)-k-means based minimum distance classifier, a new method for extracting the agricultural land use information based...

3. Unmanned Aerial System Applications In Washington State AgricultureThree applications of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) based imaging were explored in row, field, and horticultural crops at Washington State University (WSU). The applications were: to evaluate the necrosis rate in potato field crop rotation trials, to quantify the emergence rates of three winter wheat advanced yield trials, and detecting canker disease-infection in pear. The UAS equipped with green-NDVI imaging was used to acquire field aerial images. In the first application,... L. Khot, S. Sankaran, D. Johnson, A. Carter, S. Serra, S. Musacchi, T. Cummings |
4. Determinants of Ex-ante Adoption of Precision Agriculture Technologies by Cocoa Farmers in GhanaThe study was to identify the best predictors of cocoa Farmers willingness to adopt future Precision Agriculture Technology (PAT) Development in Ghana. Correlational research design was used. The target population was all cocoa farmers who benefited from Cocoa High Technology Programme (an initiative of distributing free fertilizer by government to cocoa farmers) in Ghana. Multistage sampling technique was used to select 422 out of 400,000 cocoa farmers in the six (6) out of the seven (7) cocoa... M. Bosompem, J.A. Kwarteng, H.D. Acquah |
5. Seasonal Patterns of Vegetative Indices Over Cropping SystemsRemote sensing of reflectance in the visible and near-infrared portions of the spectrum has been used for agronomic applications for a number of years. The combination of different wavelengths into vegetative indices have proven useful for a variety of applications that range from biomass, leaf area, leaf chlorophyll, yield, crop residue, and crop damage. To help refine our understanding of vegetative indices studies were conducted on corn (Zea mays L.), soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.), wheat... J.L. Hatfield, J.H. Prueger |
6. Spatial Patterns of Nitrogen Response Within Corn Production FieldsCorn (Zea mays L.) yield response to nitrogen (N) application is critical to being able to develop management practices that reduce N application or improve N use efficiency. Nitrogen rate studies have been conducted within small plots; however, there have been few field scale evaluations. This study was designed to evaluate N response across 14 corn fields in central Iowa using different rates of N applied in strips across fields. These fields ranged in size from 15 to 130 ha with N... J.L. Hatfield |
7. Correlating Plant Nitrogen Status in Cotton with UAV Based Multispectral ImageryCotton is an indeterminate crop; therefore, fertility management has a major impact on the growth pattern and subsequent yield. Remote sensing has become a promising method of assessing in-season cotton N status in recent years with the adoption of reliable low-cost unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), high-resolution sensors and availability of advanced image processing software into the precision agriculture field. This study was conducted on a UGA Tifton campus farm located in Tifton, GA. The main... W. Porter, D. Daughtry, G. Harris, R. Noland, J. Snider, S. Virk |
8. Improving Site-specific Nutrient Management in the Southeastern US: Variable-rate Fertilization Based on Yield Goal by Management ZoneSite-specific nutrient management is a critical aspect of row crop production, especially when aiming to achieve improved yields in the highly variable fields in the Southeastern United States. Variable-rate (VR) fertilizer application is a common practice to implement site-specific nutrient management and relies heavily on the use of precision soil sampling methods (grid or zone) to obtain accurate information on spatial nutrient variability within the fields. Most fields in the southeastern... S. Virk, T. Colley, C. Kamerer, G. Harris, D. Beasley |
