1. Evaluating Spectral Measures Derived From Airborne Multispectral Imagery for Detecting Cotton Root RotCotton root rot, caused by the soilborne fungus Phymatotrichopsis omnivore, is one of the most destructive plant diseases occurring...

2. Effect Of A Variable Rate Irrigation Strategy On The Variability Of Crop Production In Wine Grapes In CaliforniaPruning and irrigation are the cultural practices with the highest potential impact on yield and quality in wine grapes. In particular, irrigation start date, rates and frequency can be synchronized with crop development stages to control canopy growth and, in turn, positively influence light microclimate, berry size and fruit quality. In addition, canopy management practices can be implemented in vineyards with large canopies to ensure fruit zone microclimate... L.A. Sanchez, L.J. Klein, A. Claassen, D. Lew, M. Mendez-costabel, B.

3. Net Returns and Production Use Efficiency for Optical Sensing and Variable Rate Nitrogen Technologies in Cotton ProductionThis research evaluated the profitability and N use efficiency of real time on-the-go optical sensing measurements (OPM) and variable-rate technologies (VRT) to manage spatial variability in cotton production in the Mississippi River Basin states of Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee. Two forms of OPM and VRT and the existing farmer practice (FP) were used to determine N fertilizer rates applied to cotton on farm fields in the four states. Changes in yields and N rates due to OPM... J.A. Larson, M. Stefanini, D.M. Lambert, X. Yin, C.N. Boyer, J.J. Varco, P.C. Scharf , B.S. Tubaña, D. Dunn, H.J. Savoy, M.J. Buschermohle, D.D. Tyler |
4. Map Whiteboard As Collaboration Tool for Smart Farming Advisory ServicesPrecision agriculture, a branch of smart farming, holds great promise for modernization of European agriculture both in terms of environmental sustainability and economic outlook. The vast data archives made available through Copernicus and related infrastructures, combined with a low entry threshold into the domain of AI-technologies has made it possible, if not outright easy, to make meaningful predictions that divides individual agricultural fields into zones where variable rates...

6. Evaluation of a Single Transect Method for Collecting Grape Samples Based on Sentinel-2 Imagery for the Characterization of Overall Vineyard PerformanceCommercial vineyards are streamed into different wine programs based on analysis of grape or juice samples collected from the field, but spatial and temporal variability can lead to sub-optimal tiering of grapes. This is a particularly difficult problem to overcome in the typically large vineyards of California’s Central Valley. Due to economic and laboratory constraints on sample collection, processing, and analysis, a single sample is often expected to represent the overall fruit quality... B. Sams, M. Aboutalebi, L.

7. Precision Tools for Monitoring Experimental Irrigation Treatments in California VineyardsPrecision farming techniques, such as zonal management and variable rate nutrient delivery, have been used to manage spatial variability in many crops. Wine grapes, and most permanent crops, have been slower than row crops or agronomic crops to take advantage of these techniques, though there are barriers to implementing these methods when compared to agronomic crops. The objective of this project is to show how a suite of monitoring and management tools can be used to evaluate the performance... B. Sams, P. Previtali, J. Mezger, M. Aboutalebi, L. Sanchez, N.

8. A New Method for Yield Mapping in Commercial Wine Grape Vineyards of CaliforniaVariable rate management (VRM) has been slow to advance in wine grape vineyards, in part due to the lack of commercially available implements or solutions capable of reacting to within vineyard variability. However, the lack of yield maps in vineyards constrain growers’ ability to understand the return on investment, making the cost of VRM difficult to justify. Previous yield monitors mounted on the discharge belts of mechanized grape harvesters were difficult and costly to maintain. A new... B. Sams, M. Aboutalebi |
