1. Crop Circle Sensor-Based Precision Nitrogen Management Strategy For Rice In Northeast ChinaGreenSeeker (GS) sensor-based precision N management strategy for rice has been developed, significantly improved N fertilizer use efficiency. Crop Circle ACS-470 (CC) active sensor is a new user configurable sensor, with a choice of 6 possible bands. The objectives of this study were to identify important vegetation indices obtained from CC sensor for estimating rice yield potential and rice responsiveness to topdressing N application and evaluate their potential improvements over GS normalized...

2. Towards Data-intensive, More Sustainable Farming: Advances in Predicting Crop Growth and Use of Variable Rate Technology in Arable Crops in the NetherlandsPrecision farming (PF) will contribute to more sustainable agriculture and the global challenge of producing ‘More with less’. It is based on the farm management concept of observing, measuring and responding to inter- and intra-field variability in crops. Computers enabled the use of Farm Management Information Systems (FMIS) and farm and field specific Decision Support Systems (DSS) since mid-1980s. GIS and GNSS allowed since ca. 2000 geo-referencing of data and controlled traffic... C. Kempenaar, F. Van evert, T. Been, C. Kocks, K. Westerdijk, S. Nysten |
3. Field-scale Nitrogen Recommendation Tools for Improving a Canopy Reflectance Sensor AlgorithmNitrogen (N) rate recommendation tools are utilized to help producers maximize grain yield production. Many of these tools provide recommendations at field scales but often fail when corn N requirements are variable across the field. This may result in excess N being lost to the environment or producers receiving decreased economic returns on yield. Canopy reflectance sensors are capable of capturing within-field variability, although the sensor algorithm recommendations may not always be as accurate... C.J. Ransom, M. Bean, N. Kitchen, J.

4. Toward a Precision Agricultural Implementation for Sugar Cane Plantations in Southwestern Region of Colombia, South AmericaThe Colombian Sugar Cane Research Center, CENICAÑA, has initiated an ambitious project for the implementation of Precision Agriculture (PA) technologies in the Cauca river valley region, where one of its main objectives is to have the ability to collect large volumes of geospatial data. The main sugarcane growers in the country perform their work in the selected work area, which covers an area of approximately 242,000 ha, characterized by diverse topographic and edaphic conditions....
