1. Matching Nitrogen To Plant Available Water For Malting Barley On Highly Constrained Vertosol SoilCrop yield monitoring, high resolution aerial imagery and electromagnetic induction (EMI) soil sensing are three widely used techniques in precision agriculture (PA). Yield maps provide an indication of the crop’s response to a particular management regime in light of spatially-variable constraints. Aerial imagery provides timely and accurate information about photosynthetically-active biomass during crop growth and EMI indicates spatial variability in soil texture, salinity and/or... B.

2. GNSS Tracking Of Livestock: Towards Variable Fertilizer Strategies For The Grazing IndustryThis study reveals the potential for GPS tracking in the grazing industry. By monitoring the locations and movement of livestock, times of peak grazing activity can be identified and these can in turn produce maps of preferred grazing areas, and by examining residency times provide an indication of spatial variability in grazing pressure. A comparison of grazing preference can be made to similarly inferred camping areas to understand the potential redistribution of nutrients within a paddock.... M.G. Trotter, D.W. Lamb, G.N.

3. Flourish - A Robotic Approach for Automation in Crop ManagementThe Flourish project aims to bridge the gap between current and desired capabilities of agricultural robots by developing an adaptable robotic solution for precision farming. Combining the aerial survey capabilities of a small autonomous multi-copter Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) with a multi-purpose agricultural Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV), the system will be able to survey a field from the air, perform targeted intervention on the ground, and provide detailed information for decision support,...
