1. Comparison Between Tractor-based and UAV-based Spectrometer Measurements in Winter WheatIn-season variable rate nitrogen fertilizer application needs a fast and efficient determination of nitrogen status in crops. Common sensor-based monitoring of nitrogen status mainly relies on tractor mounted active or passive sensors. Over the last few years, researchers tested different sensors and indicated the potential of in-season monitoring of nitrogen status by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in various crops. However, the UAV-platforms and the available sensors are not yet accepted to... M. Gnyp, M. Panitzki, S. Reusch, J. Jasper, A. Bolten, G. Bareth |
2. Precision Irrigation Management Through Conjunctive Use of Treated Wastewater and Groundwater in OmanAgriculture under arid environment is always become a challenge due to water scarcity and salinity problems. With average rainfall of 100 mm, agriculture in Oman is limited due to the arid climate and limited arable lands. More than 50 percent of the arable lands are located in the 300 km northern coastal belt of Al-Batinah region. In addition, country is facing severe problem of sea water intrusion into the groundwater aquifers due to undisciplined excessive groundwater (GW) abstraction... H. Jayasuriya, A. Al-busaidi, M.
