1. A Data Fusion Method for Yield and Soil Sensor MapsUtilizing yield maps to their full potential has been one of the challenges in precision agriculture. A key objective for understanding patterns of yield variation is to derive management zones, with the expectation that several years of quality yield data will delineate consistent productivity zones. The anticipated outcome is a map that shows where soil productive potentials differ. In spite of the widespread usage of yield monitors, commercial agriculture has found it difficult... E. Lund, C.

2. Measuring Soil Carbon with Intensive Soil Sampling and Proximal Profile SensingSoils have a large carbon storage capacity and sequestering additional carbon in agricultural fields can reduce CO2 levels in the atmosphere, helping to mitigate climate change. Efforts are underway to incentivize agricultural producers to increase soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks in their fields using various conservation practices. These practices and the increased SOC provide important additional benefits including improved soil health, water quality and – in some cases –... E. Lund, T. Lund, C. Maxton |
3. Accurately Mapping Soil Profiles: Sensor Probe Measurements at Dense Spatial ScalesProximal sensing of soil properties has typically been accomplished using various sensor platforms deployed in a continuous sensing mode collecting data along transects, typically spaced 10-20 meters apart. This type of sensing can provide detailed maps of the X-Y soil variability and some sensors provide an indication of soil properties within the profile, however without additional investigations the profile is not delineated precisely. Alternatively, soil sensor probes can provide detailed... T. Lund, E. Lund, C.R. Maxton |
4. Using Soil Samples and Soil Sensors to Improve Soil Nutrient EstimationsEstimating soil nutrient levels, especially immobile nutrients like P and K, has been a primary activity for providers of precision agriculture services. Soil nutrients often vary widely within fields and growers have been eager to manage them site-specifically. There are many causes of the variability, including pedogenic factors such as soil texture, organic matter, landscape position and other factors that have resulted in an accumulation of unused nutrients in some areas of the...
