1. Mepiquat Chloride Application On Cotton At Variable RateMepiquat chloride (1,1-dimethylpiperidinium chloride) are used to control excessive vegetative growth in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) broadcast sprayed by ground or air. As proven by previous researches the variability of the cotton plants height in the field is large enough to justify the application of Mepiquat at variable rate. The major advantages of it are: (i) yield increase; (ii) economy of the applied input; (iii) reducing the potential of environmental pollution. The main objective... P.S. Magalhaes, , |

3. Precision Nutrient Management Through Use Of LCC And Nutrient Expert In Hybrid Maize Under Laterite Soil Of IndiaNutrient management has played a crucial role in achieving self sufficiency in food grain production. Energy crisis resulted in high price index of chemical fertilizers. Coupled with their limited production, fertilizer cost, soil health, sustainability and pollution have gave rise to interest in precision nutrient management tools. Field experiment was conducted to study the effect of variety and nutrient management on the growth and productivity of maize under lateritic belt of West Bengal... M. Banerjee, S. Dutta, G.

4. Accurately Mapping Soil Profiles: Sensor Probe Measurements at Dense Spatial ScalesProximal sensing of soil properties has typically been accomplished using various sensor platforms deployed in a continuous sensing mode collecting data along transects, typically spaced 10-20 meters apart. This type of sensing can provide detailed maps of the X-Y soil variability and some sensors provide an indication of soil properties within the profile, however without additional investigations the profile is not delineated precisely. Alternatively, soil sensor probes can provide detailed... T. Lund, E. Lund, C.R. Maxton |
5. Using Soil Samples and Soil Sensors to Improve Soil Nutrient EstimationsEstimating soil nutrient levels, especially immobile nutrients like P and K, has been a primary activity for providers of precision agriculture services. Soil nutrients often vary widely within fields and growers have been eager to manage them site-specifically. There are many causes of the variability, including pedogenic factors such as soil texture, organic matter, landscape position and other factors that have resulted in an accumulation of unused nutrients in some areas of the...
