1. UAV-based Crop Scouting for Precision Nutrient ManagementPrecision agriculture – is one of the most substantial markets for the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Mounted on the UAVs, sensors and cameras enable rapid screening of large numbers of experimental plots to identify crop growth habits that contribute to final yield and quality in a variety of environments. Wheat is one of the Idaho’s most important cereal crops grown in 42 of 44 Idaho counties. We are working on establishing a UAV-based methodology for in-season prediction of wheat... O.S. Walsh, K.

2. Sensor-based Technologies for Improving Water and Nitrogen Use EfficiencyLimited reports exist on identifying the empirical relationships between plant nitrogen and water status with hyperspectral reflectance. This project is aiming to develop effective system for nitrogen and water management in wheat. Specifically: 1) To evaluate the effects of nitrogen rates and irrigation treatments on wheat plant growth and yield; 2) To develop methods to predict yield and grain protein content in varying nitrogen and water environments, and to determine the minimum nitrogen...
