1. Closing Yield Gaps with GxExM and Precision Agriculture

There are many challenges to be faced by agriculture if the global population of nine billion people projected for 2050 is to be fed and clothed, especially given the effects of changing climate.  A focus on the interactions of genetics x environment x management (GxExM) offers potential for meeting the yield, and environment and economic sustainability goals that are integral to these challenges.  The yield gap –defined as the difference between current farmer yields and potential...

2. A Tree Planting Site-Specific Fumigant Applicator for Orchard Crops

The goal of this research was to use recent advances in the global positioning system and computer technology to apply just the right amount of fumigant where it is most needed (i.e., in the neighborhood of each tree planting site or tree- planting-site-specific application) to decrease the incidence of replant disease, and achieve the environmental and economical benefits of reducing the application of these toxic chemicals. In the first year of this study we retrofitted a chemical applicator... S.K. Upadhayaya, V. Udompetaikul, M.S. Shafii, G.T. Browne
