1. Impact of Variable Rate Fertilization on Nutrients Losses in Surface Runoff for Wild Blueberry FieldsWild blueberry producers apply agrochemicals uniformly without considering substantial variation in soil properties, topographic features that may affect fruit yield within field. A wild blueberry field was selected to evaluate the impact of variable rate (VR) fertilization on nutrient losses in surface runoff from steep slope to low lying areas to improve crop... S.

2. 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 |
3. High Resolution Hyperspectral Imagery to Assess Wheat Grain Protein in a Farmer's FieldThe agricultural research sector is working to develop new technologies and management knowledge to sustainably increase food productivity, to ensure global food security and decrease poverty. Wheat is one of the most important crops into this scenario, being among the three most important cereal commodities produced worldwide. Precision Agriculture (PA) and specially Remote Sensing (RS) technologies have become in the recent years more affordable which has improved the availability and flexibility... F.A. Rodrigues Jr., I.

4. Early Detection of Nitrogen Deficiency in Corn Using High Resolution Remote Sensing and Computer VisionThe continuously growing need for increasing the production of food and reducing the degradation of water supplies, has led to the development of several precision agriculture systems over the past decade so as to meet the needs of modern societies. The present study describes a methodology for the detection and characterization of Nitrogen (N) deficiencies in corn fields. Current methods of field surveillance are either completed manually or with the assistance of satellite imaging, which offer... D. Mulla, D. Zermas, D. Kaiser, M. Bazakos, N. Papanikolopoulos, P.
