1. Maize Seeding Rate Optimization in Iowa Using Soil and Topographic Characteristics.

The ability to collect soil, topography, and productivity information at spatial scales has become more feasible and more reliable with many advancement in precision technologies. This ability, combined with precision services and the accessibility farmers have to equipment capable implementing precision practices, has led to continued interest in making site-specific crop management decisions. The objective of this research was to utilize soil and topographic parameters to optimize seeding rates... M.A. Licht, A. Lenssen, R. Elmore

2. Spatial Analysis of Soil Moisture and Turfgrass Health to Determine Zones for Spatially Variable Irrigation Management

The Western United States is currently experiencing a “Mega Drought”. This makes efficient water use more important than ever. Turfgrass is a major vegetation type in urban areas and performs many ecosystem services such as cooling through evapotranspiration, fixing carbon from the atmosphere and reducing wild-fire risk. There are now more acres of irrigated turfgrass (>40 million) in the USA than irrigated corn, wheat and fruit trees combined (Milesi et al., 2005). It has been... R. Kerry, S. Shumate, B. Ingram, K.

3. Spatio-temporal Analysis of Soil Moisture and Turfgrass Health to Investigate the Temporal Stability of Variable Rate Irrigation Zones

The western USA has been experiencing severe drought conditions for at least the last 20 years. The population in many areas of the west, like Utah, has also increased greatly in this time putting greater strain on the limited freshwater supply. While agriculture is generally the sector consuming the largest proportion of freshwater, conversion of agricultural land to urban areas with lawns, parks and playing fields may result in some reduction of water use, but the EPA have estimated that as...
