1. On-the-go Gamma Spectrometry and Its Evaluation Via Support Vector Machines: Really a Valuable Tool for Site-independent Soil Texture Prediction?With progressive implementation of precision agriculture (PA) techniques in current agricultural/ viticultural practice, the need for high-resolution information on soil properties at low effort and cost is increasing. Moreover, climate change and extended drought periods do even increase this demand. Evaluating soil fertility and carbon storage potential of arable fields and vineyards, e.g. for future economic assessment of ecosystem services, requires spatially resolved soil data. Soil texture... S. PÄtzold, T.W. Heggemann, R. Wehrle |
2. Development of Standard Protocols for Soil Tilth Assessment As an Essential Component of Tillage Tool Automation to Improve Soil HealthThe accurate assessment of soil tilth may be pivotal when assessing soil health as part of a holistic process to ensure sustainable and profitable crop production practices. In this study, we focus on demonstrating methodologies for the spatial assessment of soil tilth as ground truth for assessing real-time soil tilth quality sensing technologies. The proposed methodologies for evaluating tillage effects involve the integration of the line transect method for residue distribution analysis. Soil... C. Dean, A. Klopfenstein, A.
