1. Fluorescence Imaging Spectroscopy Applied To Citrus DiseasesDiseases are one of the most serious threats for citrus production worldwide. Sao Paulo, Brazil and Florida, USA, are the most important citrus producers and, both, are making efforts for citrus diseases control. Citrus canker is one of the serious diseases, caused by the Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri bacteria, that infects citrus trees and relatives, causing a large economic loss in the citrus juice production. Another important disease affecting the citrus production worldwide is the Huanglongbing... C. Wetterich, J. Belasque jr., L. Marcassa |

4. OptiThin - Precision Fruiticulture by Tree-Specific Mechanical ThinningApple cultivars show biennial fluctuations in yields (alternate bearing). The phenomenon is induced by reduced yields in one year due to freeze damage, low pollination rate or other reasons. Consequently, trees develop many flower buds that blossom in the following year. The many flowers lead to a high number of small fruits that won’t be accepted on the market. Endogenous factors (phytohormones and carbohydrate allocation) subsequently establish the biennial cycle. The alternate bearing... A. Betz, H. Benny, M. Jens, M. Özyurtlu, M. Pflanz, T. Rachow-autrum, A. Schischmanow, M. Scheele, J. Schrenk, L. Schrenk, M. Zude, R. Gebbers |
5. Weed Seedlings Detection In Winter Cereals For Site-Specific Control: Use Of UAV Imagery To Overcome The ChallengeWeed management is an important part of the investments in crop production. Cost of herbicides accounts for approximately 40% of the cost of all the chemicals applied to agricultural land in Europe. In order to increase the profitability of crop production and to reduce the environmental concerns related to chemicals application, it is needed to develop site-specific weed management strategies in which herbicides are only applied in the crop zones were weeds spread. Moreover, these... J. Peña, A. De castro, F. López-granados, J. Torres-sánchez |
6. Integrated Approach to Site-specific Soil Fertility ManagementIn precision agriculture the lack of affordable methods for mapping relevant soil attributes is a fundamental problem. It restricts the development and application of advanced models and algorithms for decision making. The project “I4S - Integrated System for Site-Specific Soil Fertility Management” combines new sensing technologies with dynamic soil-crop models and decision support systems. Using sensors with different measurement principles improves the estimation of soil fertility... R. Gebbers, V. Dworak, B. Mahns, C. Weltzien, D. Büchele, I. Gornushkin, M. Mailwald, M. Ostermann, M.

7. Integration of Proximal and Remote Sensing Data for Site-Specific Management of Wild BlueberryIn Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean, there are nearly 27,000 ha of wild blueberries (Vaccinium angustifolium Ait.). This production is carried out in fields with heterogeneous growing conditions due to the local changes in topography, key soil properties, and crop density. The main objective of this study was to develop a regression-based approach to site-specific management (SSM) by integrating proximally and remotely sensed data layers, namely, apparent soil electrical conductivity (ECa), field elevation,...

8. Precision Agriculture: A Paradigm Shift for Espousal of Advanced Farming Practices Among Progressive Farmers in Punjab –PakistanPrecision agriculture provides innovative farm information tools for improved decision making regarding crop growth and yield. Creating awareness for future applications of precision agriculture among progressive farmers in Pakistan was an instrumental force to conduct this study. The purpose was to appraise the awareness level of the respondents for applications of precision agriculture in the field. The objectives such as assessing the awareness level, available information sources, future needs,... E. Ashraf, H.K. Shurjeel, R. Rasheed |
