1. Field-Based High-Throughput Phenotyping Approach For Soybean Plant ImprovementThe continued development of new, high yielding cultivars needed to meet the world’s growing food demands will be aided by improving the technology to rapidly phenotype potential cultivars. High-throughput phenotyping (HTP) is essential to maximize the greatest value of genetics analysis and to better understand the plant biology and physiology in view of a “Feed the World in 2050” theme. Field-based high-throughput phenotyping platform... L. Li, D. Jiang, R.P. Campos, Z. Lu, L.F. Tian |
2. Evaluating Leaf Fluorescence Sensor Dualex 4 For Estimating Rice Nitrogen Status In Northeast ChinaReal-time non-destructive diagnosis of crop nitrogen (N) status is crucially important for the success of in-season site-specific N management. Chlorophyll meter (CM) has been commonly used to non-destructively estimate crop leaf chlorophyll concentration, and indirectly estimate crop N status. Dualex 4 is a newly developed leaf fluorescence sensor that can estimate both leaf chlorophyll concentration and polyphenolics, especially flavonoids. When N is deficient, N stress can induce... W.

3. Within-field Profitability Assessment: Impact of Weather, Field Management and SoilsProfitability in crop production is largely driven by crop yield, production costs and commodity prices. The objective of this study was to quantify the often substantial yet somewhat illusive impact of weather, management, and soil spatial variability on within-field profitability in corn and soybean crop production using profitability indices for profit (net return) and return-on-investment (ROI) to produce estimates. We analyzed yield and cropping system data provided by 42 farmers within Central... P.M. Kyveryga, S. Fey, J. Connor, A. Kiel, D. Muth |
4. Toward Geopolitical-Context-Enabled Interoperability in Precision Agriculture: AgGateway's SPADE, PAIL, WAVE, CART and ADAPTAgGateway is a nonprofit consortium of 240+ businesses working to promote, enable and expand eAgriculture. It provides a non-competitive collaborative environment, transparent funding and governance models, and anti-trust and intellectual property policies that guide and protect members’ contributions and implementations. AgGateway primarily focuses on implementing existing standards and collaborating with other organizations to extend them when necessary. In 2010 AgGateway identified... R. Ferreyra, D.B.

5. Prediction of Corn Economic Optimum Nitrogen Rate in ArgentinaStatic (i.e. texture and soil depth) and dynamic (i.e. soil water, temperature) factors play a role in determining field or subfield economically optimal N rates (EONR). We used 50 nitrogen (N) trials from Argentina at contrasting landscape positions and soil types, various soil-crop measurements from 2012 to 2017, and statistical techniques to address the following objectives: a) characterize corn yield and EONR variability across a multi-landscape-year study in central west Buenos Aires,...

6. Site-Specific Management Zones Delineation Using Drone-Based Hyperspectral ImageryConventional techniques (e.g., intensive soil sampling) for site-specific management zones (MZ) delineation are often laborious and time-consuming. Using drones equipped with hyperspectral system can overcome some of the disadvantages of these techniques. The present work aimed to develop a drone-based hyperspectral imagery method to characterize the spatial variability of soil physical properties in order to delineate site-specific MZ. Canonical correlation analysis (CCA) was used to extract... H. Agili, K. Chokmani, A. Cambouris, I. Perron, J. Poulin |
7. Using an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle with Multispectral with RGB Sensors to Analyze Canola Yield in the Canadian PrairiesIn 2017 canola was planted on 9 million hectares in Canada surpassing wheat as the most widely planted crop in Canada. Saskatchewan is the dominant producer with nearly 5 million hectares planted in 2017. This crop, seen both as one of the highest-yielding and most profitable, is also one of most expensive and input-intensive for producers on the Canadian Prairies. In this study, the effect of natural and planted shelterbelts on canola yield was compared with canola yield... K. Hodge, L. Bainard, A. Smith, F. Akhter |
8. Precision Fall Urea Fertilizer Applications: Timing Impact on Carbon Dioxide, Ammonia Volatilization and Nitrous Oxide EmissionsTo minimize ammonia (NH3) volatilization and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from fall applied fertilizer, it is generally recommended to not apply the fertilizer until the soil temperature decreases below 10 C. However, this recommendation is not based on detailed measurements of NH3and N2O emissions. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of fertilizer application timing on nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide, and ammonia volatilization emissions. Nitrogen fertilizer was... S.

9. Deposition Characteristics of Different Style Spray Tips at Varying Speeds and Altitudes from an Unmanned Aerial SystemThe application of pesticides with a UAS has become a popular practice over the past few years within crop production. The ability to carry larger volumes of liquid i onboard, reduced costs, and simple operation has attributed to the increased popularity. Additionally, the increased number of fungicide applications in corn due to the tar spot disease has shown that the demand for aerial applications of all types has increased with UAS pesticide application technology providing the opportunity...

10. Creating Value from On-farm Research: Efields Data Workflow and Management Successes and ChallengesFarm operations today generate a large amount of data that can be difficult to properly manage. This challenge is further compounded when conducting on-farm research. The Ohio State University eFields program partners with farmers to conduct on-farm research and share results in a timely manner. Since 2017, the team has conducted and shared 987 trials across Ohio with the annual number of trials increasing from 45 to 292. This rapid increase has required development of a data workflow that streamlines... J.P. Fulton, D. Wilson, R. Tietje, E. Hawkins |
11. Lameness Detection in Dairy Cattle Using GPS and Accelerometers Wearable SensorsLameness significantly impacts cow health and welfare on dairy farms, yet identifying lamecows remains challenging. Wearable sensors like GPS and accelerometers show promise for automated lameness detection, but their effectiveness outdoors is still unclear. Therefore, there are gaps in understanding their applicability and the necessary features for outdoor settings. Additionally, it is uncertain whether environmental factors, such as temperature and time of day, influence their the model performance,... N. Mhlongo, H. De knegt, W.F. De boer, F. Van langevelde |
