1. Development And Application Of Gully Erosion Components Within The USDA Annagnps Watershed Model For Precision ConservationA watershed scale assessment of the effect of conservation practices on the environment is critical when recommending conservation management practices to agricultural producers. The identification of all sources of sediment and subsequent tracking of the movement of sediment downstream is a necessary part of this assessment including the often overlooked contributions from gully erosion sources. Pollutant loading allocations established with comprehensive studies of all sediment sources... R.L. Bingner, R.R. Wells, F.D. Theurer |
2. Forecasting Crop Yield Using Multi-Layered, Whole-Farm Data Sets and Machine LearningThe ultimate goal of Precision Agriculture is to improve decision making in the business of farming. Many broadacre farmers now have a number of years of crop yield data for their fields which are often augmented with additional spatial data, such as apparent soil electrical conductivity (ECa), soil gamma radiometrics, terrain attributes and soil sample information. In addition there are now freely available public datasets, such as rainfall, digital soil maps and archives of satellite remote... P. Filippi, E.J. Jones, M. Fajardo, B.M. Whelan, T.F. Bishop |
3. Optimising Nitrogen Use in Cereal Crops Using Site-Specific Management Classes and Crop Reflectance SensorsThe relative cost of Nitrogen (N) fertilisers in a cropping input budget, the 33% Nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) seen in global cereal grain production and the potential environmental costs of over-application are leading to changes in the application rates and timing of N fertiliser. Precision agriculture (PA) provides tools for producers to achieve greater synchrony between N supply and crop N demand. To help achieve these goals this research has explored the use of management classes derived... B. Whelan, M. Fajardo |
4. Developing a Machine Learning and Proximal Sensing-based In-season Site-specific Nitrogen Management Strategy for Corn in the US MidwestEffective in-season site-specific nitrogen (N) management strategies are urgently needed to ensure both food security and sustainable agricultural development. Different active canopy sensor-based precision N management strategies have been developed and evaluated in different parts of the world. Recent studies evaluating several sensor-based N recommendation algorithms across the US Midwest indicated that these locally developed algorithms generally did not perform well when used broadly across...
