4. Evaluation of a Sensor and Control Interface Module for Monitoring of Greenhouse EnvironmentProtected horticulture in greenhouses and plant factories has been increased in many countries due to the advantages of year-round production in controlled environment for improved productivity and quality. For protected horticulture, environmental conditions are monitored and controlled through wired and wireless devices. Various devices are used for monitoring and control of spatial and temporal variability in crop growth environmental conditions. Recently, various sensors and control devices,... N. Sung, S.

5. Increasing Corn (Zea Mays L.) Profitability by Site-Specific Seed and Nutrient Management in Igmand-Kisber Basin, HungaryVariable Rate Technology (VRT) in seeding and nutrient management has been developed in order to apply crop inputs variably. Farm equipment is widely available to manage in-field variability in Hungary, however, defining management zones, seed rates and amounts of nutrients is still a challenge. An increasing number of growers in Hungary have started adopting precision agriculture technology; however, data on profitability concerning site-specific seeding and nitrogen management is not widely...

6. Economics of Swarm Bot Profitability for Cotton HarvestImproved equipment management is one way which producers can increase profits. For cotton, this is especially true due to specialized equipment used for the sole purpose of harvest. Questions are raised regarding a way to either reduce or replace traditional cotton pickers. The main alternative being discussed is an investment in autonomous “swarm bots” to replace traditional equipment. Swarm bots are fully automated robots tasked with the responsibility of picking cotton one row at... J. Cullop, T.W. Griffin, G. Ibendahl, E. Barnes, J. Shockley, J. Devine |
7. Evaluating Remote Sensing Based Adaptive Nitrogen Management for Potato ProductionConventional nitrogen (N) management for potato production in the Upper Midwest, USA relies on using split-applications of N fertilizer or a controlled release N product. Using remote sensing to adaptively manage N applications has the potential to improve N use efficiency and reduce losses of nitrate to groundwater, which are important regional concerns. A two-year plot-scale experiment was established to evaluate adaptive N-management using remote sensing compared to conventional practices for... B. Bohman, D. Mulla, C. Rosen |
8. Coupling Machine Learning Algorithms and GIS for Crop Yield Predictions Based on Remote Sensing Imagery and Topographic IndicesIn-season yield prediction can support crop management decisions helping farmers achieve their yield goals. The use of remote sensing to predict yield it is an alternative for non-destructive yield assessment but coupling auxiliary data such as topography features could help increase the accuracy of yield estimation. Predictive algorithms that can effectively identify, process and predict yield at field scale base on remote sensing and topography still needed. Machine learning could be an alternative... M.F.

9. Evaluating the Potential of Improving In-season Nitrogen Status Diagnosis of Potato Using Leaf Fluorescence Sensors and Machine LearningPrecision nitrogen (N) management is particularly important for potato crops due to their high N fertilizer demand and high N leaching potential caused by their shallow root systems and preference for coarse-textured soils. Potato farmers have been using a standard lab analysis called petiole nitrate-N (PNN) test as a tool to diagnose potato N status and guide in-season N management. However, the PNN test suffers from many disadvantages including time constraints, labor, and cost of analysis.... S. Wakahara, Y. Miao, S. Gupta, C. Rosen, K. Mizuta, J. Zhang, D. Li |
10. Seed Localization System Suite with CNNs for Seed Spacing Estimation, Population Estimation and DoublesProper seed placement during planting is critical to achieve uniform emergence which optimizes the crop for maximum yield potential. Currently, the ideal way to determine planter performance is to manually measure plant spacing and seeding depth. However, this process is both cost- and labor-intensive and prone to human errors. Therefore, this study aimed to develop seed localization system (SLS) system to measure seed spacing and seeding depth and providing the geo-location of each planted seed.... A. Sharda, R.

11. Developing a Wheat Precision Nitrogen Management Strategy by Combining Satellite Remote Sensing Data and WheatGrow ModelPrecision nitrogen (N) management (PNM) is becoming increasingly popular due to its ability to synchronize crop N demand with soil N supply spatiotemporally. The previous evidence has demonstrated that variable rate fertilization contributes to achieving high yields and high efficiencies. However, PNM at the regional level remains unclear and challenging. This study aims to develop a novel management zone (MZ)-based PNM strategy (MZ-PNM) to optimize the basal and topdressing N rates at the regional... Y. Miao, X. Liu, Y. Tian, Y. Zhu, W. Cao, Q.

12. Real-time Seed Mapping Using Direct MethodsSeed distance estimations are critical for planter evaluation and the prediction of planting parameter performance. However, these estimations are typically not conducted in real-time. In this study, we propose a real-time seed mapping approach using cameras and computer vision networks, augmented by a Kalman filter for vehicle state estimation. This process involves the transformation of pixel coordinates into real-world coordinates. We conduct a comparative analysis between these estimates and... A. Sharda, R. Harsha chepally |
13. Design and Development of a Spraying System for Under Canopy Rover and Its Integration with Computer Vision SystemChemical spraying such as herbicides, insecticides are essential in any agricultural field for controlling pest, weed etc. and ultimately increasing yield. About one-third of agricultural yields rely on the utilization of pesticides. However, around 3 billion kilograms of pesticides are used worldwide every year and effective utilization of it is merely 1%. The precise application of these chemicals is necessary to reduce negative impacts on environment as well as human health. The application... N.K. Piya, A. Sharda, J.R. Persch, D. Flippo, R.
