1. Precision Agriculture Initiative for Karnataka A New Direction for Strengthening Farming CommunityStrengthening agriculture is crucial to meet the myriad challenges of rural poverty, food security, unemployment, and sustainability of natural resources and it also needs strengthening at technical, financial and management levels. In this context... U.K. Shanwad, M.B. Patil, V. H, M. B.g , P. R, R. N.l. , S. S, R. Khosla, V.C. Patil |
2. Precision Nutrient Management in Cotton- A Case Study from IndiaCotton is being one of the important commercial crops in India, farmers have adopted cultivating hybrid cotton to achieve higher yield. In this context, cotton is becoming input intensive crop... U. Shanwad, V. H, R. N.l., P.S. Kanannnavar, S. Swamy, M.B. Patil |
3. Window-based Regression Analysis of Field DataHigh-resolution satellite and areal imagery enables multi-scale analysis that has previously been impossible. We consider the task of localized linear regression and show that window-based techniques can return results at different length scales with very high efficiency. The ability of inspecting multiple length scales is important for distinguishing factors that vary over different length scales. For example, variations in fertilization are expected to occur on shorter length... A.M. Denton, H. Chavan, D.W. Franzen, J.F. Nowatzki |
4. Using Deep Learning in Yield and Protein Prediction of Winter Wheat Based on Fertilization Prescriptions in Precision AgriculturePrecision Agriculture has been gaining interest due to the significant growth in the fields of engineering and computer science, hence leading to more sophisticated methods and tools to improve agricultural techniques. One approach to Precision Agriculture involves the application of mathematical models and machine learning to fertilization optimization and yield prediction, which is what this research focuses on. Specifically, in this work we report the results of predicting yield and protein... J. Sheppard, A. Peerlinck, B. Maxwell |
5. Generation of Site-specific Nitrogen Response Curves for Winter Wheat Using Deep LearningNitrogen response (N-response) curves are tools used to support farm management decisions. Conventionally, the N-response curve is modeled as an exponential function that aims to identify an important threshold for a given field: the economic optimum point. This is useful to determine the nitrogen rate beyond which there is no actual profit for the farmers. In this work, we show that N-response curves are not only field-specific but also site-specific and, as such, economic optimum points should... G. Morales, J.W. Sheppard, A. Peerlinck, P. Hegedus, B. Maxwell |
6. Optimizing Nitrogen Application to Maximize Yield and Reduce Environmental Impact in Winter Wheat ProductionField-specific fertilizer rate optimization is known to be beneficial for improving farming profit, and profits can be further improved by dividing the field into smaller plots and applying site-specific rates across the field. Finding optimal rates for these plots is often based on data gathered from said plots, which is used to determine a yield response curve, telling us how much fertilizer needs to be applied to maximize yield. In related work, we use a Convolutional Neural Network, known... A. Peerlinck, J. Sheppard, G.L. Morales luna, P. Hegedus, B. Maxwell |
7. Analytical and Technological Advancements for Soybean Quality Mapping and Economic DifferentiationIn the past, measuring soybean protein and oil content required the collection of soybean seed samples and laboratory analyses. Modern on-the-go near-infrared (NIR) sensing technologies during the harvest and proximal remote sensing (aerial and satellite imagery) before harvest time can be used to provide an early estimate of seed quality levels, benchmark in-season predictions with at-harvest final seed quality and enable seed differentiation for farmers leading to better marketing strategies. Recent... A. Prestholt, C. Hernandez, I. Ciampitti , P. Kyveryga |
8. Soybean Variable Rate Planting Simulator Using Economic ScenariosSoybean seed costs have increased considerably over the past 15 years, causing a growing interest in variable rate planting (VRP) to optimize seeding rates within soybean fields. We developed a publicly available online Soybean Variable Rate Planting Simulator (http://analytics.iasoybeans.com/cool-apps/SoybeanVRPsimulator/) tool to help farmers, agronomists, and other agriculturalists to understand the essential prerequisite agronomic or economic conditions necessary for profitable VRP implementation....

9. Spatial Predictive Modeling to Quantify Soybean Seed Quality Using Remote Sensing and Machine LearningIn recent years, the advancement of artificial intelligence technologies combined with satellite technology is revolutionized agriculture through the development of algorithms that help producers become more sustainable. This could improve the conditions of farmers not only by maximizing their production and minimizing environmental impact but also due to better economic benefits by allowing them to access high-value-added markets. Furthermore, the use of predictive tools that could improve the... C. Hernandez, P. Kyveryga, A. Correndo, A. Prestholt, I. Ciampitti |
