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 |
