1. Developing And Teaching A Site-specific Crop/soil Management CourseSite-specific crop/soil management technologies have been available for over fifteen years. Consequently, there is a demand for classroom and laboratory education across a variety of agricultural disciplines in the University community. To meet this demand, a course was developed in 1998 to teach the basic concepts of site-specific crop/soil management. This class is designed as a upper level undergraduate and graduate class and generally has between 10... M. Cox, D. Roberts |
2. Production And Conservation Results From A Decade-Long Field-Scale Precision Agriculture SystemResearch is needed that simultaneously evaluates production and conservation outcomes of precision agriculture practices. From over a decade (1993-2003) of yield and soil mapping and water quality assessment, a multi-faceted, “precision agriculture system” (PAS) was developed and initiated in 2004 on a 36-ha field in Central Missouri. The PAS assessment was accomplished by comparing it to the previous decade of conventional corn-soybean... C. Baffaut, K. Sudduth, J. Sadler, R. Kremer, R. Lerch, N. Kitchen, K. Veum |
3. sUAVS Technology For Better Monitoring Crop Status For Winter CanolaThe small-unmanned aircraft vehicles (sUAVS) are currently gaining more popularity in agriculture with uses including identification of weeds and crop production issues, diagnosing nutrient deficiencies, detection of chemical drift, scouting for pests, identification of biotic or abiotic stresses, and prediction of biomass and yield. Research information on the use of sUAVS have been published and conducted in crops such as rice, wheat, and corn, but the development of... I.A. Ciampitti, K. Shroyer, V. Prasad, A. Sharda, M.J. Stamm, H. Wang, K. Price, D. Mangus |
4. Modus: a Standard for Big DataModus Standard is a system of defined terminology, agreed metadata and file transfer format that has grown from a need to exchange, merge and trend agricultural testing data. The three presenters will discuss steps taken to develop the system, benefits to data exchange, current user base and additions being made to the standard. ... D. Nerpel, J.W. Ellsworth, A. Hunt |
5. Shared Protocols and Data Template in Agronomic TrialsDue to the overlap of many disciplines and the availability of novel technologies, modern agriculture has become a wide, interdisciplinary endeavor, especially in Precision Agriculture. The adoption of a standard format for reporting field experiments can help researchers to focus on the data rather than on re-formatting and understanding the structure of the data. This paper describes how a European consortium plans to: i) create a “handbook” of protocols for reporting definitions,... D. Cammarano, D. Drexler, P. Hinsinger, P. Martre, X. Draye, A. Sessitsch, N. Pecchioni, J. Cooper, W. Helga, A. Voicu |
6. Investigating the Potential of Visible and Near-infrared Spectroscopy (VNIR) for Detecting Phosphorus Status of Winter Wheat Leaves Grown in Long-term TrialThe determination of plant nutrient content is crucial for evaluating crop nutrient removal, enhancing nutrient use efficiency, and optimizing yields. Nutrient conventional monitoring involves colorimetric analyses in the laboratory; however, this approach is labor-intensive, costly, and time-consuming. The visible and near-infrared spectroscopy (VNIR) or hyperspectral non-imaging sensors have been an emerging technology that has been proved its potential for rapid detection of plant nutrient... Y.

7. Creating a Comprehensive Software Framework for Sensor-driven Precision AgricultureRobots and GPS-guided tractors are the backbone of smart farming and precision agriculture. Many companies and vendors contribute to the market, each offering their own customized solutions for common tasks. These developments are often based on vendor-specific, proprietary components, protocols and software. Many small companies that produce sensors, actuators or software for niche applications could contribute their expertise to the global efforts of creating smart farming solutions, if their... O.
