1. Embedded Sensing System To Control Variable Rate Agricultural InputsThis paper presents an embedded sensing system for agricultural machines to collect information about plants and also to control the application of fertilizer with variable rate in corn crop. The Crop Circle reflectance sensor was used with the aim to explore the spectral... G.T. Tangerino, R.V. Sousa, A.J. Porto, R. . Inamasu, P. Pinkston |
2. C And N Coupling Through Time: Soil C, N, And Grain Yield In A Long-term Continuous Corn TrialGains and losses of both C and N are important in agricultural landscapes. Temporal changes in the pattern of crop yield response to tillage and fertilizer input are commonly observed; often weakly interpreted, in long-term research. A 38-year-long monoculture corn (Zea mays L.) tillage (moldboard plow, no-tillage) by N rate (0, 84, 168, 336 kg N per hectare) trial was sampled to a depth of 100 cm, as was the surrounding... J.

3. Crop Rotation Impacts ‘Temporal Sampling’ Needed For Landscape-defined Management ZonesYield and landscape position are used to delineate management zones, but this approach is confounded by yield’s weather dependence, causing yield to evidence temporal variability/lack of yield stability. Management options (e.g. crop rotation) also influence yield stability. Our objective was to build a model that would describe the influence of crop rotation on the temporal yield stability of landscape defined management zones. Corn (Zea mays L.) yield data for two rotations,... E.M. Pena-yewtukhiw, J. Grove |
4. Impact Of Winter Grazing On Forage Biomass Topography Soil Strength Spatial RelationshipsSpatial relationships between soil properties, forage productivity, and landscape can be used to manage site-specific grazing. Soil penetration resistance and forage biomass were collected for three years in winter grazing experiment. The three ha experimental area was divided into six paddocks, hay was cut twice per year in the months of May and June, and forage stockpiled after the second cutting. Animals were admitted to paddocks at the end of November, at a stocking rate... E.M. Pena-yewtukhiw, D. Mata-padrino, W. Bryan |
5. Data-driven Agriculture and Sustainable Farming: Friends or Foes?Sustainability in our food and fiber agriculture systems is inherently knowledge intensive. It is more likely to be achieved by using all the knowledge, technology, and resources available, including data-driven agricultural technology and precision agriculture methods, than by relying entirely on human powers of observation, analysis, and memory following practical experience. Data collected by sensors and digested by artificial intelligence (AI) can help farmers learn about synergies... O. Rozenstein, Y. Cohen, V. Alchanatis , K. Behrendt, D.J. Bonfil, G. Eshel, A.
