1. Timely, Objective, And Accurate Crop Area Estimations And Mapping Using Remote Sensing And Statistical Methods For The Province Of Prince Edward Island, CanadaThe provincial government of Prince Edward Island, Canada, required timely, objective, and accurate annual crop area statistics and mapping for 2006 to 2008. Consequently, Statistics Canada conducted a survey incorporating medium- resolution satellite imagery (10 to 30 m) and statistical survey methods. The objective was to produce crop area estimates with a coefficient of variation (CV) as a measure of accuracy, and to produce maps showing the distribution and location of different crops and... F.

2. A Clustering Approach For Management Zone Delineation In Precision AgricultureIn recent years, an increasing amount of research has been devoted to the delineation of management zones. There have been quite a number of approaches towards using small-scale data for subdividing the field into a small number of zones, usually three or four. However, these zones are usually static, often require multi-year data sets and are based on low-resolution sampling methods for data acquisition. Furthermore, existing research into the... G. Ru, M.

3. Evaluation Of A Controlled Release N-P Fertilizer Using A Modified Drill For Variable Rate FertilizationBase NP or NPK fertilization is a common practice in cereal production in Chile. Usually, a physical NPK blend is band applied with the seed at planting with the drill. Normal fertilizer rates vary from 400 to 500 kg ha-1; however, there is a tendency in the market to move from physical blend towards chemical blends (monogranule) and, more recently, to controlled release fertilizers (CRF). The CRF are usually recommended at very low rates, varying from 70 to 120 kg ha-1, however this rates are... R.A. Ortega, J.F. Reyes, W. Esquivel, J. Orellana |
