1. Proximal Sensing Tools to Estimate Pasture Quality Parameters.To date systems for estimating pasture quality have relied on destructive sampling with measurement completed in a laboratory which was very time consuming and expensive. Results were often not received until after the pasture was grazed which defeated the point of the measurement, as farmers required the information to make decisions about grazing strategies to effectively...

2. Spatial Variability of Soil Nutrients and Precision Nutrient Management for Targeted Yield Levels of Groundnut (Arachis Hypogaea L.)A field study was conducted during rabi / summer 2014-15 to know the spatial variability and precision nutrient management practices on targeted yield levels of groundnut. The experimental field has been delineated into 36 grids of 9 m x 9 m using geospatial technology. Soil samples from 0-15 cm were collected and analysed. Spatial variability exists for available nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium and they varied from 99 to 197 kg N, 12.1 to 64.0 kg P2O5 and 166... H. D.c, S. Dr., N. Dr., M. Giriyappa, S. T |
3. Precision Nutrient Management Through Drip Irrigation in Aerobic RiceA field experiment was conducted during kharif 2015 to asses the spatial variability and precision nutrient management through drip irrigation in aerobic rice at ZARS, GKVK, Bangalore. The experimental field has been delineated into 48 grids of 4.5 m x 4.5 m using geospatial technology. Soil samples from 0-15 cm depth were collected and analysed. There was spatial variability for available nitrogen (154 to 277 kg ha-1), phosphorous (45 to 152 kg ha-1) and potassium... N. Dr., S. T, M. Giriyappa, H. D.c, B. Patil, D. Prabhudeva, G. Kombali, S.

4. Using Drone Based Sensors to Direct Variable-Rate, In-Season, Aerial Nitrogen Application on CornImproving nutrient management on farms is a critical issue nationwide. Applying a portion of N fertilizer during the growing season, alongside the growing corn crop is one way to improve nitrogen management. Sidedress N applications allow the availability of N fertilizer to more closely match the time when the crop is rapidly uptaking N. Additionally, waiting to apply a portion of the N during the growing season allows for management which is responsive to current growing season conditions. Crop... L.J. Thompson |
