1. Instrumented Blades With Automated Control Used In Chisel Plough Acting In Variable DepthsSoil compaction is a problem that affects most of the tilled areas of Brazil, being caused by several factors, such as overloading and intense machine traffic, use of unsuitable tires for applied load and inflation pressures outside the recommendation, machines in the field with the water content of the soil not recommended and several other problems. There are available several models and systems of measuring soil compaction in Brazil; however, the sensors of the... K.P. Lanças, J. Testa, B.B. Fernandes, T.M. Machado |
2. Development of an Online Decision-Support Infrastructure for Optimized Fertilizer ManagementDetermination of an optimum fertilizer application rate involves various influential factors, such as past management, soil characteristics, weather, commodity prices, cost of input materials and risk preference. Spatial and temporal variations in these factors constitute sources of uncertainties in selecting the most profitableapplication rate. Therefore, a decision support system (DSS) that could help to minimize production risks in the context of uncertain crop performance is needed. This... S. Shinde, V. Adamchuk, R. Lacroix, N.
