1. Precision Manure Management: It Matters Where You Put Your Manure“Precision fertilizer management” has been around for more than a decade and is practiced widely in Colorado and elsewhere. By precision, we mean application of fertilizer at the right time, in the right place, and in the right amount. However, “Precision Manure Management” is a relatively new concept that converge the best manure management practices with precision nutrient management practices, such as variable rate nutrient application across site-specific management...

2. Precision Conservation: Using Precision Agriculture Technology To Optimize Conservation And Profitability In Agricultural LandscapesUSDA Farm Bill conservation programs provide landowner incentives to remove marginal lands from agricultural production and reestablish them to natural vegetation (e.g., native grasses, trees, etc.). However, removal of arable land from production imposes an opportunity cost associated with loss in revenue from commodities that otherwise would have been produced. Northern bobwhite (bobwhite) populations have shown a positive response to numerous conservation programs implemented in agricultural... M.D. Mcconnell, L.W. Burger, W. Givens |
3. Indirect Measurement Of Creeping Bentgrass N, Chlorophyll, And Color For Precision Golf Green ManagementIndirect measurement of turfgrass tissue through optical sensing may provide golf course managers with non-destructive and relatively simple real-time measurements of golf green N requirements. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of N rate on ‘Crenshaw’ creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) tissue N, chlorophyll concentration, and color using the GreenSeeker (NTech Industries, Ukiah, CA) handheld sensor. Plots... J.Q. Moss, G.E. Bell |
4. Development Of A Precision Sensing Sprayer For The Application Of Nitrogen Fertilizer To TurfgrassNormalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) may be very useful for turfgrass managers to measure turf quality and obtain an indirect measurement of turf N status. The objective of this research was to develop a Nitrogen Fertilization Optimization Algorithm (NFOA) for use in a turfgrass variable rate N applicator on bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers] fairways and creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) greens in Oklahoma. Plots (0.9 X 1.5 m)... J.Q. Moss, G.E. Bell, J.B. Solie, M.L. Stone, D.L. Martin, M.E. Payton |
5. Optimization Of Maize Yield: Relationship Between Management Zones, Hybrids And Plant PopulationCorn is highly sensitive to variations in plant population and it is one of the most important practices influencing in grain yield. Knowledge about plant physiology and morphology allow understanding how the crop interacts with plant population variation. Considering that for each production system there is a population that optimizes the use of available resources it is necessary to manage plant population to reach maximum grain yield on each particular environment. This study... A.A. Anselmi, J.P. Molin, R. Khosla |
6. Cotton Field Relations Of Plant Height To Biomass Accumulation And N-Uptake On Conventional And Narrow Row SystemsAlthough studied for decades, cotton field management remains a challenge for growers, especially due to spatial variability of soil conditions and crop growth, which demands the use of variable rate application technology (VRT) for nitrogen and growth regulators to improve yields and quality and/or save inputs. Canopy optical reflectance sensors are being studied as an option to detect infield variability but may have some limitations due to the known effect of signal saturation when used... N. .

7. A Five Year Study Of Variable Rate Fertilization In CitrusCitrus is a major crops in Brazil, especially in the São Paulo state, which is the main citrus production region in the world. Yet, site specific technology is still in early stages of adoption. Variable rate application of inputs is the most important tool in a Precision Agriculture system, however its effect on citrus agronomical aspects are still unknown, especially during long periods of observation. Thus, variable rate fertilizer application has been tested in citrus... J.P. Molin, A.F. Colaço |
8. Management Zones Delineation In Brazilian Citrus OrchardsPrecision Agriculture (PA) is in its first steps in Brazil citrus production. Variable rate fertilization based on soil grid sampling and yield maps has been tested in São Paulo orchards. In a long term study results showed potential on increasing fertilizer use efficiency and improving soil fertility management. Despite the good results, in some cases it is noticed that systematic methods of investigation (grid sampling and yield data) and prescription (standardized prescription equations)... M. Ruiz, D.
