1. The Effect of Scheduling Irrigation on Yield, Concentration and Uptake of Nutrient in Zero Tilled Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.)Abstract: The rice–wheat rotation... D. Krishna |
2. Is Precision Agriculture Feasible In Cocoa Production In Ghana? : The Case Of “Cocoa High Technology Programme” In The Eastern Region Of GhanaGhana is the second largest producer of cocoa in the world supplying 25% of the world’s cocoa, thus cocoa production contributes significantly to the economy of ...

3. Towards Data-intensive, More Sustainable Farming: Advances in Predicting Crop Growth and Use of Variable Rate Technology in Arable Crops in the NetherlandsPrecision farming (PF) will contribute to more sustainable agriculture and the global challenge of producing ‘More with less’. It is based on the farm management concept of observing, measuring and responding to inter- and intra-field variability in crops. Computers enabled the use of Farm Management Information Systems (FMIS) and farm and field specific Decision Support Systems (DSS) since mid-1980s. GIS and GNSS allowed since ca. 2000 geo-referencing of data and controlled traffic... C. Kempenaar, F. Van evert, T. Been, C. Kocks, K. Westerdijk, S. Nysten |
4. Hyperspectral Imaging to Measure Pasture Nutrient Concentration and Other Quality ParametersManaging pasture nutrient requirements on large hill country sheep and beef properties based on information from soil sampling is expensive because of the time and labor involved. High levels of error are also expected as these properties are often greatly variable and it is therefore extremely difficult to sample intensively enough to capture this variation. Extensive sampling was also not considered viable as there was no effective means of spreading fertilizer with a variable rate capability... I.J. Yule, R.R. Pullanagari, G. Kereszturi, M.E.

5. Sensor Comparison for Yield Monitoring Systems of Small-Sized Potato HarvestersYield monitoring of potato in real time during harvesting would be useful for farmers, providing instant yield and income information. In the study, potentials of candidate sensors were evaluated with different yield measurement techniques for yield monitoring system of small-sized potato harvesters. Mass-based (i.e., load cell) and volume-based (i.e., CCD camera) sensors were selected and tested under laboratory conditions. For mass-based sensing, an impact plate instrumented with load cells...

6. Quantifying Boom Movement in Agricultural Sprayer Booms Using Neural Networks for Real-world Field ScenariosApplication rate errors in self-propelled agricultural sprayers remain a significant concern, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of boom movement during actual field operating scenarios. This study introduces new objectives to quantify boom movement across commercial sprayers when operated by different individuals and compares these movements among various machines. The goal is to develop a metric that identifies potential improvement needs for boom height control system. The approach... T. Kaloya, A. Sharda, A. Dalal |
