1. Early Identification Of Leaf Rust On Wheat Leaves With Robust Fitting Of Hyperspectral SignaturesEarly recognition of pathogen infection is of great relevance in precision plant protection. Disease detection before the occurrence of visual symptoms is of particular interest. By use of a laserfluoroscope, UV-light induced fluorescence data were collected from healthy and with leaf rust infected wheat leaves of the susceptible cv. Ritmo 2-4 days after inoculation under controlled conditions. In order to evaluate disease impact on spectral characteristics 215 wavelengths in the range of 370-800... C. R, T. Rumpf, K. B, M.

2. Energy-efficient Wireless Sensor Network System For Soil Moisture Information CollectingCollecting field soil moisture information is the foundation of auto-irrigation. This paper introduced a soil moisture information collecting system based on wireless sensor network (WSN) technology and with application background of automatic drip irrigation for cotton field. Firstly, application background was analyzed and application requirement was defined. The system worked together with a drip irrigation system in cotton field. After study, it was found that the output of soil moisture sensor... R. Zhang, L. Chen, J. Guo, J.G. Warren, J.G. Warren |
3. Retrieving Crops' Quantitative Biophysical Parameters Through a Newly Developed Multispectral Sensor for UAV PlatformsToday’s intensive agricultural production needs to increase its efficiency in order to keep its profitability in the current market of decreasing prices on one hand, and to reduce the environmental impact on the other. Crop growers are starting to adopt side dressing nitrogen fertilization as part of their fertilization programs, for which they need accurate information about biomass development and nitrogen condition in the crop. This information is usually acquired through ground sampling,... A. Pimstein, Y. Zur, M. Le roux |
4. Farm Soil Moisture Mapping Using Reflected GNSS SNR Data Onboard Low Level Flying AircraftSoil moisture/water content monitoring (spatial and temporal) is a critical component of farm management decision primarily for crop/plant growth and yield improvement, but also for optimization of practice such as tillage and field treatments. Satellite humidity probes do not deliver the relevant resolution for farming purposes. Ground moisture probes only provide punctual measurements and do not reflect the true spatial variability of soil moisture. Previous studies have demonstrated... L. Ameglio, J. Darrozes, J. Dreyer |
5. Portable Soil EC - Development of an Electronic Device for Determining Soil Electrical ConductivityDecision-making in agriculture demands continuous monitoring, a factor that propels the advancement of tools within Agriculture 4.0. In this context, understanding soil characteristics is essential. Electrical conductivity (EC) sensors play a pivotal role in this comprehension. Given this backdrop, the core motivation of this research was developing an accessible and effective electronic device to measure the apparent EC of the soil. It provides features like geolocation, recording of the date... C.L. Bazzi, L.A. Rauber, W.K. Oliveira, R. Sobjak, K. Schenatto, L. Gebler, L.M. Rabello |
6. Site-specific Evaluation of Sensor-based Winter Wheat Nitrogen Tools Via On-farm ResearchCrop producers face the challenge of optimizing high yields and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in their agricultural practices. Enhancing NUE has been demonstrated by adopting digital agricultural technologies for site-specific nitrogen (N) management, such as remote-sensing based N recommendations for winter wheat. However, winter wheat fields are often uniformly fertilized, disregarding the inherent variability within the fields. Thus, an on-farm evaluation of sensor-based N tools is needed to... J.

7. Barriers and Adoption of Precision Ag Tehcnologies for Nitrogen Management NebraskaA statewide survey of Nebraska farmers shows that they determine the N rate based on soil lab recommendations (82%), intuition, traditional rate, and own experience (67%). The adoption of dynamic site-specific models (23%), and sensor-based algorithms (11%) remains low. The survey identified the main barriers to the adoption of these N management technologies. ... G.
