1. Estimation of Rice Yield from MODIS Data in West Java, IndonesiaChiharu Hongo1*, Takaaki Furukawa1, Gunardi Sigit2, Masayasu Maki3, Koki Honma3,... C. Hongo, T. Furukawa, G. Sigit, M. Maki, K. Honma, K. Yoshida, K. Oki, H. Shirakawa |
2. Spatial and Temporal Variability of Corn Grain Yield as a Function of Soil Parameters, and Climate FactorsEffective site-specific management requires an understanding the influence of soil and weather on yield variability. Our objective was to examine the influence of soil, precipitation, and temperature on spatial and temporal corn grain yield variability. The study site (10 by 250 -m in size) was located in Jaboticabal, São Paulo State, on a Rhodic Hapludox. Corn yield (planted with 0.9-m spacing) was measured... T. Mueller, J. Corá, A. Castrignanò, M. Rodrigues, E. Rienzi |
3. On-The-Go pH Sensor: An Evaluation in a Kentucky FieldA commercially available on-the-go soil pH sensor measures and maps subsurface soil pH at high spatial intensities across managed landscapes. The overall purpose of this project was to evaluate the potential for this sensor to be used in agricultural fields. The specific goals were to determine and evaluate 1) the accuracy with which this instrument can be calibrated, 2) the geospatial structure of soil pH measurements,... T. Mueller, E. Gianello, B. Mijatovic, E. Rienzi, M. Rodrigues |
4. First Results Of Development Of A Smart Farm In The NetherlandsGNSS technology has been introduced on about 20 % of the Dutch arable farms in The Netherlands today. Use of sensor technology is also slowly but gradually being adopted by farmers, providing them large amounts of digital data on soil, crop and climate conditions. Typical data are spatial variation in soil organic matter, crop biomass, crop yield, and presence of pests and diseases. We still have to make major steps to use all this data in a way that agriculture becomes more sustainable. We... T. Feher, C. Kocks, C. Kempenaar, K. Westerdijk |
5. Using Precision Agriculture And Remote Sensing Techniques To Improve Genotype Selection In A Breeding ProgramPrecision Agriculture (PA) and Remote Sensing (RS) technologies are increasingly being used as tools to assess crop and soil properties by breeders and physiologists. These technologies are showing potential to improve genotype selections over their traditional field measurements, by providing quick access to crop properties throughout the crop cycle and yield estimation. The objective of this work was to use vegetation indices (VIs) and soil apparent electrical conductivity... F.A. Rodrigues junior, I. Ortiz-monasterio, P.J. Zarco-tejada, K. Ammar, B.G. Gérard |
6. Development of Farmland-Terrain Simulation System for Consistency of Seeding DepthA farmland-terrain simulation system suitable for rugged topography was designed to study the irregularities of farmland surface morphology led by both topographic fluctuation and terrain tilt. The system consists of terrain simulation mechanism, hydraulic system, control system, etc. The terrain simulation mechanism is connected to the rack through hydraulic cylinder to simulate farmland surface fluctuation. The hydraulic system controls the hydraulic cylinder to drive the terrain simulation... W. Fu, J. Dong, Y. Cong, N. Gao, Y. Li, Z. Meng |
7. Establishment of a Canola Emergence Assessment Methodology Using Image-based Plant Count and Ground Cover AnalysisManual assessment of emergence is a time-consuming practice that must occur within a short time-frame of the emergence stage in canola (Brassica napus). Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) may allow for a more thorough assessment of canola emergence by covering a wider scope of the field and in a more timely manner than in-person evaluations. This research aims to calibrate the relationship between emerging plant population count and the ground cover. The field trial took place at the University... K. Krys, S. Shirtliffe, H. Duddu, T.
