1. Verify The Effectiveness Of UAS-Mounted Sensors In Field Crop And Livestock Production Management IssuesThis research project is a “proof-of-concept” demonstrating specific UAS applications in production agriculture. Project personnel will use UAS-mounted sensors to collect data of ongoing crop and livestock research projects during the 2014 crop season at the North Dakota State University (NDSU) Carrington Research Extension Center (CREC). Project personnel will collaborate with NDSU research scientists conducting research at the CREC. During the first year of the project... S. Bajwa, J. Nowatzki, W. Harnisch, B. Schatz, V. Anderson |
2. Correlating Plant Nitrogen Status in Cotton with UAV Based Multispectral ImageryCotton is an indeterminate crop; therefore, fertility management has a major impact on the growth pattern and subsequent yield. Remote sensing has become a promising method of assessing in-season cotton N status in recent years with the adoption of reliable low-cost unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), high-resolution sensors and availability of advanced image processing software into the precision agriculture field. This study was conducted on a UGA Tifton campus farm located in Tifton, GA. The main... W. Porter, D. Daughtry, G. Harris, R. Noland, J. Snider, S. Virk |
3. Improving Site-specific Nutrient Management in the Southeastern US: Variable-rate Fertilization Based on Yield Goal by Management ZoneSite-specific nutrient management is a critical aspect of row crop production, especially when aiming to achieve improved yields in the highly variable fields in the Southeastern United States. Variable-rate (VR) fertilizer application is a common practice to implement site-specific nutrient management and relies heavily on the use of precision soil sampling methods (grid or zone) to obtain accurate information on spatial nutrient variability within the fields. Most fields in the southeastern... S. Virk, T. Colley, C. Kamerer, G. Harris, D. Beasley |
