1. Value Of Connectivity In Rural Areas: Case Of Precision Agriculture Data

The introduction of precision agricultural technologies in the early 1990’s was made possible through the utilization of global positioning system (GPS). However, unlike GPS which has worldwide coverage allowing field-level precision agricultural activities to occur. Collecting spatial and machinery data into a repository efficiently is not currently feasible in real-time due to lack of broadband and wireless connectivity in many rural areas even in developed counties. Lack... T. Griffin, T. Mark

2. Assessing the Distribution Uniformity of Broadcast-interseeded Cover Crops at Different Crop Stages by an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

Drones can now carry larger payloads and have become more affordable, making them a viable option to use for broadcast-interseeding cover crops in the fall, prior to main crop harvest. This strategy has become popular in Ohio over the past two years. However, this new strategy arose quickly with a limited understanding of field performance of the drone’s distribution uniformity under different parameters such as rates, swath widths, speeds, or cash crop type. Therefore, the objective of... A.D. Thomas, J.P. Fulton, S. Khanal, O. Ortez, G. Mcglinch
