1. Variable Rate Application Of Potassium Fertilizer For Soybean Crop Growth In A No-till SystemVariable rate application of fertilizer has the potential to improve nutrient use efficiency, improve economic returns, and reduce negative environmental impacts. The objective of this study was to evaluate the variable rate application of potassium fertilizer to soybean crop in a no-till system. The study was conducted on a 13-ha soybean grain field in Carambeí, State of Paraná, Brazil in a Typic Hapludox. The area has been under no-tillage for more than 10 years growing grains... A.C.

2. Spatial Variability Of Crop And Soil Properties In A Crop-livestock Integrated SystemThe knowledge of spatial variability soil properties is useful in the rational use of inputs, as in the site specific application of lime and fertilizer. The objective of this work was to map and evaluate the spatial variability of the crop, soil chemical and physical properties. The study was conducted in 2 areas of 6.9 and 11.7 ha of a Typic Haplustox in Sao Carlos, SP, Brazil. The summer crops corn and sorghum were sowed together to the forage crop Brachiaria brizantha in the system of crop-pasture... A.C. Bernardi, C.R. Grego, R.G. Andrade, C.M. Vaz, L.M. Rabello, R.Y.

3. Spatial Variability of Soil Properties in Intensively Managed Tropical Grassland in BrazilFor the intensification of tropical grass pastures systems the soil fertility building up by liming and balanced fertilization is necessary. The knowledge of spatial variability soil properties is useful in the rational use of inputs, as in the variable rate application of lime and fertilizers. PA requires methods to indicate the spatial variability of soil and plant parameters. The objective of this work was to map and evaluate the soil properties and maps the site specific liming and fertilizer... G.M. Bettiol, R.Y. Inamasu, L.M. Rabello, A.C. Bernardi, M. Campana, P.P.

4. Spatial Variability Index Based On Soil Properties for Notill and Pasture Site-Specific Management in Brazil.Quantitative characterization of soil properties spatial variation has first been applied... R.P. De oliveira, A.C. Bernardi, V.D. Benites, L.M. Rabello, R.Y. Inamassu |
5. Brazilian Precision Agriculture Research NetworkThe adoption of adequate technologies for food, biomass and fiber production can increase yield and quality and also reduce environmental impact through an efficient input application. Precision agriculture is the way to decisively contribute with efficient production with environment protection in Brazil. Based on this, recently Embrapa established the Brazilian Precision... J.D.

6. Soil Compaction: Impact Of Tractor And Equipment On Corn Growth, Development And YieldThis project looks at the impact of soil compaction on corn emergence, growth and development, and yield. This is a two-year study, begun in the in the spring of 2013, it will be completed after the 2014 growing season. Corn was produced in the field both years. The project hypotheses are to: 1) Soil compaction does impact corn growth, development and yield; 2) Soil compacted in the fall season by farm equipment is measurable the following... S.

7. Verify The Effectiveness Of UAS-Mounted Sensors In Field Crop And Livestock Production Management IssuesThis research project is a “proof-of-concept” demonstrating specific UAS applications in production agriculture. Project personnel will use UAS-mounted sensors to collect data of ongoing crop and livestock research projects during the 2014 crop season at the North Dakota State University (NDSU) Carrington Research Extension Center (CREC). Project personnel will collaborate with NDSU research scientists conducting research at the CREC. During the first year of the project... S. Bajwa, J. Nowatzki, W. Harnisch, B. Schatz, V. Anderson |
8. Evaluation Of In-Field Sensors To Monitor Nitrogen Status In SoybeanIn recent years, active optical crop sensors have been gaining importance to determine in-season nitrogen (N) fertilization requirements for on-the-go variable rate application. Although most of these active in-field crop sensors have been evaluated in corn and wheat crops, they have not yet been evaluated in soybean production systems in North Dakota. Recent research from both South Dakota and North Dakota indicate that in-season N application in soybean can increase soybean yield... J. Nowatzki, S. Bajwa, S. Sivarajan, M. Maharlooei, H. Kandel |
9. Greenhouse Study to Identify Glyphosate-resistant Weeds Based on Canopy TemperatureDevelopment of herbicide-resistant crops has resulted in significant positive changes to agronomic practices, while repeated and intensive use of herbicides with the same mechanisms of action has caused the development of herbicide-resistant weeds. As of 2015, 35 weed species are reported to be resistant to glyphosate worldwide. A greenhouse study was conducted to identify characteristics which can be helpful in field mapping of glyphosate resistant weeds by using UAV imagery. The experiment included... A. Shirzadi, M.

10. Large-scale UAS Data Collection, Processing and Management for Field Crop ManagementNorth Dakota State University research and Extension personnel are collaborating with Elbit Systems of America to compare the usefulness and economics of imagery collected from a large unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), small UAS and satellite imagery. Project personnel are using a large UAS powered with an internal combustion engine to collect high-resolution imagery over 100,000 acres twice each month during the crop growing season. Four-band multispectral Imagery is also being collected twice... J. Nowatzki, S. Bajwa, D. Roberts, M. Ossowski, A. Scheve, A. Johnson, Y. Chaplin |
11. Vis/NIR Spectroscopy to Estimate Crude Protein (CP) in Alfalfa Crop: Feasibility StudyThe fast and reliable quality determination of alfalfa crop is of interest for producers to make management decisions, the dealers to determine the price, and the dairy producers for livestock management. In this study, the crude protein (CP), one of the main quality indices of alfalfa, was estimated using the visible and near-infrared (Vis/NIR) spectroscopy. A total of 68 samples from various variety trials of alfalfa crop were collected under the irrigated and rainfed conditions. The diffuse... M. Maharlooei, S. Bajwa, S.A. Mireei, A. Shirzadi, S.
