1. Smoothness Index Of Thematic MapsA thematic map shows the spatial distribution of one or more specific data themes for standard geographic areas. The thematic maps are generated to represent the studied variables, so interpolators are used to determine their values in places not sampled. It is usually... C.L. Bazzi, E.G. Souza, D. Stiehl |
2. Thematic And Profitability Maps For Precision AgricultureYield maps became economically feasible to farmers with the technological advances in precision agriculture. The evidence of its profitability, however, is still unknown and, rarely, yield variability has been correlated to profitable variability. Differently from... E.G. Souza, C.L. Bazzi, M.A. Uribe-opazo |
3. A Statistical and an Agronomic Approach for Definition of Management Zones in Corn and SoybeanThe use of productivity level management zones (MZ) has demonstrated good potential for the site-specific management of crop inputs in traditional row crops. The objectives of this research were to analyze the process of defining MZs and develop methods to evaluate the quality of MZ maps. Two approaches were used to select the layers to be used in the MZ definition: 1) Statistical Approach (SA_MZ) and 2) Agronomic Approach (AA_MZ). The difference is that in the AA_MZ approach all non stable variables... C.L. Bazzi, E.G. Souza, R. Khosla, R.M. Reich |
4. Use of Chemical and Physical Attributes Of the Soil in Management Units DefinitionSeveral equipments and methodologies have been developed to make available precision agriculture, especially the high cost of its implantation and sampling. An interesting possibility... C.L. Bazzi, E.G. Souza, L.H. Nobrega, M.A. Uribe-opazo, D.M. Rocha |
5. OptiThin - Precision Fruiticulture by Tree-Specific Mechanical ThinningApple cultivars show biennial fluctuations in yields (alternate bearing). The phenomenon is induced by reduced yields in one year due to freeze damage, low pollination rate or other reasons. Consequently, trees develop many flower buds that blossom in the following year. The many flowers lead to a high number of small fruits that won’t be accepted on the market. Endogenous factors (phytohormones and carbohydrate allocation) subsequently establish the biennial cycle. The alternate bearing... A. Betz, H. Benny, M. Jens, M. Özyurtlu, M. Pflanz, T. Rachow-autrum, A. Schischmanow, M. Scheele, J. Schrenk, L. Schrenk, M. Zude, R. Gebbers |
