3. Validation Of On-the-go Soil Ph-measurements – Primary Results From GermanyUntil recently in-field variability for soil pH could not be considered for agronomic decisions (e.g. liming rates) because reliable spatial information was hardly available. The required density of soil pH-measurements could not be achieved by manual soil sampling due to time constraints and analysis costs for the vast number of samples. A comprehensive... H. Olfs, D. Trautz, A. Borchert |
4. Use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles to Inform Herbicide Drift AnalysisA primary advantage of unmanned aerial vehicle-based imaging systems is responsiveness. Herbicide drift events require prompt attention from a flexible collection system, making unmanned aerial vehicles a good option for drift analysis. In April 2015, a drift event was documented on a Mississippi farm. A combination of corn and rice fields exhibited symptomology consist with non-target injury from a tank mix of glyphosate and clethodim. An interesting observation was the... J.M.

5. Soybean Maturity Stage Estimation with Unmanned Aerial SystemsMany agronomic decisions in soybean production systems revolve around crop maturity. The primary objective of this research was to evaluate the ability of UAS to determine when soybeans have reached maturity stage sufficient for harvest aid application. A producer typically applies harvest aid chemicals when he or she perceives the crop has reached a critical level of maturity (R6.5) based on a subjective assessment. A convention is to apply harvest aids when 65% of soybean pods reach a mature... J.M. Prince czarnecki, L.L. Wasson, J.T. Irby, A.B. Scholtes, S.M. Carver |
6. A Decision-support Tool to Optimize Mid-season Corn Nitrogen Fertilizer Management from Red, Green, Blue SUAS ImagesCorn receives more nitrogen (N) fertilizer per unit area than any other row crop and optimized soil fertility management is needed to help maximize farm profitability. In Arkansas, N fertilizer for corn is delivered in two- or three-split applications. Three-split applications may provide a better match to crop needs and contribute to minimizing yield loss from N deficiency. However, the total amounts are selected based on soil texture and yield goal without accounting for early-season losses... A. Poncet, T. Bui, W. France, T. Roberts, L. Purcell, J. Kelley |
