1. Evaluation Of A Controlled Release N-P Fertilizer Using A Modified Drill For Variable Rate FertilizationBase NP or NPK fertilization is a common practice in cereal production in Chile. Usually, a physical NPK blend is band applied with the seed at planting with the drill. Normal fertilizer rates vary from 400 to 500 kg ha-1; however, there is a tendency in the market to move from physical blend towards chemical blends (monogranule) and, more recently, to controlled release fertilizers (CRF). The CRF are usually recommended at very low rates, varying from 70 to 120 kg ha-1, however this rates are... R.A. Ortega, J.F. Reyes, W. Esquivel, J. Orellana |
2. Modifying Agro-Economic Models to Predict Effects of Spatially Varying Nitrogen on Wheat Yields for a Farm in Western AustraliaAgricultural research in broadacre farming in Western Australia has a strong history, resulting in a significant public resource of knowledge about biophysical processes affecting crop performance. However, translation of this knowledge into improved on-farm decision making remains a challenge to the industry. Online and mobile decision support tools to assist tactical farm management decisions are not widely adopted, for reasons including: (1) they take too much time and training to learn; and... F.H.

3. Developing Geospatial Method for Autopilot Harvester Trampling Evaluation in Colombian Sugarcane FieldsSugarcane is a crop of great importance for the geographical valley of the Cauca River in Colombia, where it covers approximately 241,000 hectares and is cultivated by 13 sugar mills and about 4,200 cultivators. This region is characterized by its favorable climate, which enables year-round sugarcane harvesting and its high productivity, making it a global leader in this sector. This achievement is largely attributed to the technological advances developed by Colombia Sugarcane Research Center... J.D. Ome narvaez, D.F. Sandoval, S.A. Galeano, H.B. Tarapues, A. Estrada, J.P.

4. Deposition Characteristics of Different Style Spray Tips at Varying Speeds and Altitudes from an Unmanned Aerial SystemThe application of pesticides with a UAS has become a popular practice over the past few years within crop production. The ability to carry larger volumes of liquid i onboard, reduced costs, and simple operation has attributed to the increased popularity. Additionally, the increased number of fungicide applications in corn due to the tar spot disease has shown that the demand for aerial applications of all types has increased with UAS pesticide application technology providing the opportunity...
