1. SPOT5 Multispectral Data Potentialities To Monitor Potato Crop Nitrogen Status At Specific Field ScaleThe many challenges facing European agriculture and farm of tomorrow are such that they increasingly require the setting up of Decision Support Systems (DSS) that favour integrated crop management at farm or regional level. A valuable DSS for management of split fertilizer N applications was developed in Belgium for potato crop. It combines total N recommendation based on field predictive balance-sheet method along with Crop Nitrogen Status (CNS) monitoring through hand-held chlorophyll meter... J. Goffart, A. Leonard, D.

2. Variable-rate Irrigation Management For Peanut Using Irrigator ProVariable-rate irrigation has the potential to save substantial water. These water savings will become more important as urban, industrial, and environmental sectors compete with agriculture for available water. However, methodologies to precision-apply water for maximum agronomic and economic utility are needed. Information is needed to optimally management variable-rate irrigation systems. In this study, we conducted irrigation experiments on peanut to compare... K. Stone, P.J. Bauer, W.J. Busscher, J.A. Millen, D.E. Evans, E.E. Strickland |
3. Cotton NDVIResponse To Applied N At Different Soil EC LevelsSpatial variability for crop productivity in the southeastern US Coastal Plain is often due to differences in soil water holding capacity. An experiment was conducted to investigate the use of soil EC as an aid in the site-specific application of sidedress N to cotton. Treatments in the study consisted of three N rates (0, 34, and 112 kg N ha-1). Each treatment was replicated four times in plots that were 4 m wide (four cotton rows) and 350 m long. Soil EC was measured... P.J. Bauer |
4. Evaluating Water Status in Potato Fields Using Combined Information from RGB and Thermal Aerial ImagesPotato yield and quality are highly dependent on an adequate supply of water. In this study the combined information from RGB and thermal aerial images to evaluate... Y. Cohen, V. Alchanatis, B. Heuer, H. Lemcoff, M. Sprintsin, C. Rosen, D. Mulla, T. Nigon, Z. Dar, A.

5. Perspectives For Site Specific Application Of Soil Herbicides In Arable FarmingSoil herbicides kill plants via root uptake. The use of soil herbicides can be made more sustainable by adjusting the dosage to the local soil condition. This so called Variable Rate Application (VRA) is the core of Precision Farming. Soil herbicides often play an important role in weed control strategies in conventional arable farming. Broad field uniform application is by far the most common application method. However, with increasing advances in sensing and spray... S. Heijting, C. Kempenaar |
