1. Transient Water Flow Model in a Soil-Plant System for Subsurface Precision IrrigationThe spatial variability of plant-water characteristic in the soil is still unclear. This limits the attempt to model the soil-plant-atmosphere system with this factor. Understanding the non-steady water flow along the soil-plant component is essential to understand their spatial variability.... M.B. Zainal abidin, S. Shibusawa, M. Ohaba, Q. Li, M. Kodaira, M.B.

2. Water Distribution Response in a Soil-Root System for Subsurface Precision IrrigationA subsurface capillary irrigation system with a water source buried in a soil has been developed for precision irrigation. This system has advantages in the efficient irrigation to save much water and the real time measurement of evapotranspiration of plants. Creating this new subsurface capillary... S. Shibusawa, M.

3. Adaptive Control of Capillary Water Flow Under Modified Subsurface Irrigation Based on a SPAC ModelSoil moisture in a rhizosphere of a tomato is controlled adaptively based on a simple soil-plant-atmosphere continuum (SPAC) model. The water flow from a soil through a plant to the atmosphere is governed by the analogous rule of the SPAC model. In our experiment, we assume that plant transpiration is only affected by the water-potential of air when the soil moisture... M. Ohaba, M.B. zainal abidin, Q. Li, S. Shibusawa, M. Kodaira, K.

4. 3D Map in the Depth Direction of Field for Precision AgricultureBy a change in eating habits with economic development and the global population growth, we have been faced with the need for increased food production again. In order to solve the food problem in the future, the introduction of agriculture organization is progressing in emerging countries as well as developed countries. However, the occurrence of natural disasters and abnormal weather, which is becoming a worldwide problem at present, is further weakening the crops of farm... H. Umeda, S. Shibusawa, Q. Li, K.

5. Using A Potable Spectroradiometer For In-Situ Measurement Of Soil Properties In A Slope Citrus FieldIn precision agriculture, rapid, non-destructive, cost-effective and convenient soil analysis techniques are needed for crop and soil management. However, the spatial variability of soil properties is consider to be high cost and time consuming to characterize using traditional soil analysis method. To achieve cost and time reduction, the potential benefits of in-situ measurement of soil spectra have been recognized. ... S. Shibusawa, H. Umeda, K. Usui, M. Kodaira, Q. Li |
6. Water Use Efficiency of Precision Irrigation System Under Critical Water-Saving ConditionNon-transpiration water loss is often neglected when evaluating water use efficiency (WUE) of precision irrigation system, due to the difficulties in determining water loss from the root zone. The objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility of a new water saving approach by controlling soil water retention around root zone during the plant growth. We grew two tomato cultivars (Anemo, Japanese variety) in an environmental controlled growth chamber, with previously oven dried and sieved... Q. Li, T. Sugihara, M. Kodaira, S. Shibusawa |
