1. Revisited: A Case Study Approach For Teaching And Applying Precision AgricultureCurrent agricultural students understand and are excited about new technologies, but often do not understand how precision agriculture can be applied to farming operations. A case-study approach that requires students to develop precision agriculture management practices which includes selecting equipment and assessing the financial feasibility could help students understand and apply precision agriculture. This paper revisits a case-study approach to teaching precision agriculture and describes... J.D. Williams, S.D. Mcgary, M. Waits |
2. Measuring Pasture Mass and Quality Indices Over Time Using Proximal and Remote SensorsTraditionally pasture has been measured or evaluated in terms of a dry matter yield estimate, which has no reference to other important quality factors. The work in this paper measures pasture growth rates on different slopes and aspects and pasture quality through nitrogen N% and metabolizable energy and ME concentration. It is known that permanent pasture species vary greatly in terms of quality and nutritional value through different stages of maturity. Pasture quality decreases as grass tillers... I.J. Yule, M.C.
