1. Precision Agriculture Development In CanadaThis poster provides an overview of precision agriculture development in Canada. It focuses on the specific practices of auto steer tracking and variable rate nutrient application in the prairie region. The development of these practices has been largely driven by technology innovation and private sector crop consultants and equipment providers. Nevertheless, academia and government have supported this development through research since the 1990’s and funding incentives... D. Haak |
2. Mapping Spatial Production Stability in Integrated Crop and Pasture Systems: Towards Zonal Management That Accounts for Both Yield and Livestock-landscape Interactions.Precision farming technologies are now widely applied within Australian cropping systems. However, the use of spatial monitoring technologies to investigate livestock and pasture interactions in mixed farming systems remains largely unexplored. Spatio-temporal patterns of grain yield and pasture biomass production were monitored over a four-year period on two Australian mixed farms, one in the south-west of Western Australia and the other in south-east Australia. A production stability index was... P. Mcentee, S. Bennett, M. Trotter, R. Belford, J. Harper |
