1. Spot- Application of Pre-Emergence Herbicide Using a Variable Rate Sprayer in Wild BlueberryWild blueberry producers apply herbicides uniformly to control grasses and weeds without considering the significant weed density variability and bare spots within fields. The repeated and excessive use of herbicides... Q. Zaman, Y. Chang, A. Farooque, A. Schumann, D. Percival, M. Cheema, T. Esau |
2. Variability in Corn Yield Response to Nitrogen Fertilizer in QuebecOptimizing nitrogen (N) fertilization is important to improve corn yield and to reduce N losses to the environment. The economic optimum nitrogen rate (EONR) is variable and depends on many factors, including weather conditions and crop management. The main objective of this study was to examine how grain corn yield response to N varies with planting date, soil texture and spring weather across sites and years in Monteregie, which is the most important with 64% of total area and 69%...

3. UAV-based Hyperspectral Monitoring of Peach Trees As Affected by Silicon Applications and Water Stress StatusPrevious research has shown that the application of reduced doses of Silicon (Si) improves crop tolerance to water stress, which is common in commercial young peach trees because irrigation is not usually applied during their first two years. In this study, aerial images were used to monitor the impact of different Si and water treatments on the hyperspectral response of peach trees. An experiment with 60 young (under 1 year old) peach trees located at the Musser Fruit Research Center (Seneca,... J. Peña, J. Melgar, A. De castro, J. Maja, K. Nascimento-silva |
