1. CropSAT - a Public Satellite-based Decision Support System for Variable-rate Nitrogen Fertilization in ScandinaviaCropSAT is a free-to-use web application for satellite-based production of variable-rate application (VRA) files of e.g. nitrogen (N) and fungicides currently available in Sweden and Denmark. Even in areas frequently covered by clouds, vegetation index maps from data derived from low-cost or freely available optical satellites can be used in practice as a cost-efficient tool in time-critical applications such as optimized nitrogen use. During the very cloudy year 2015, or more useable images... M. Söderström, H. Stadig, J. Martinsson, M. Stenberg, K. Piikki |
2. Time Series Analysis of Somatic Cell Count from Dairy Herds in Minas Gerais - BrazilThe objective of this study was to analyze the temporal variation of somatic cell count (SCC) in milk of dairy cows from the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The Holstein Livestock Breeders Association of Minas Gerais provided data collected from 128 dairy farms located in the state of Minas Gerais between the years of 2000 and 2016. The database contains the SCC average of a total of 91,851 305-day lactations of Holstein animals. The annual SCC average was calculated as well as the percentage of... G.M. Dallago, D.

3. Precision Feeding Can Significantly Reduce Lysine Intake and Nitrogen Excretion Without Compromising the Performance of Growing PigsThe impact of using a mathematical model estimating real-time daily lysine requirements in a sustainable precision feeding program for growing pigs was investigated in two performance trials. Three treatments were tested in the first trial (60 pigs of 41.2±0.5 kg): a three-phase feeding program (3P) obtained by blending fixed proportions of feeds A (high nutrient concentration) and B (low nutrient concentration); and two daily-phase feeding programs in which the blended proportions of feeds...

4. The Effect of Slope Gradient on the Modelling of Soil Carbon Dioxide Emissions in Different Tillage Systems at a Farm Using Precision Tillage Technology in HungaryUnderstanding the role of natural drivers in greenhouse gas (GHG) emitted by agricultural soils is crucial because it contributes to selecting and adapting acceptable eco-friendly farming practices. Hence, Syngenta Ltd. collaborating with researchers, aimed to investigate the effect of two tillage treatments, conventional-tillage (CT) and minimum-tillage (MT) on soil carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The research field is in Hungary. Soil columns were derived from different tillage systems... I.M. Kulmany, S. Benke, L. Bede, R. Pecze, V. Vona |
5. Evaluation of the Effect of Different Herbicide Treatments by Using UAV in Maise (Zea mays L.) Cultivation – First Experiences in a Long-term Experiment at Széchenyi István University, HungaryAs part of the Green Deal, the European Union has set a goal to reduce the use of chemical pesticides by 50 percent until 2030. To achieve this goal, in addition to reducing the amount of pesticide used, attention must also be paid to monitoring the temporal and spatial effects of pesticides on weeds during the cultivation of various crops. Hence, Syngenta Ltd., collaborating with researchers, aimed to monitor the effect of five different types of herbicides by UAV in two tillage treatments (CN... I.M. Kulmany, B. Horváth, G.

6. Potato Disease Detection Using Laser Speckle Imaging and Deep LearningEarly detection of potato diseases is essential for minimizing crop loss. Implementing advanced imaging techniques can significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of disease detection in potato crops. Leveraging machine learning algorithms can further enhance the speed and precision of disease identification, enabling timely intervention measures. This work presents a novel potato disease detection technique using whole-potato speckle imaging and deep learning. Laser Speckle Imaging (LSI),... A.H. Rabia, M.A. Salem |
7. Development of a High-throughput UAV System for Precision Weed Detection and Control Using Laser Speckle Imaging and UV-C IrradiationTraditional weed control methods, predominantly reliant on herbicides or labor-intensive ground robots, present notable environmental and efficiency challenges within agricultural practices. To address these concerns, this study introduces an innovative approach utilizing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for autonomous weed detection and control in agricultural fields. Our proposed system depends on the agility of UAV platforms, integrating two primary technologies. Firstly, Laser Speckle Imaging... M.A. Salem, A.H. Rabia |
