1. Design And Experiment On Target Spraying Robot For GreenhouseIn greenhouse, the robot sprayers give rise to concern as they reduce the labor intensity and improve the accuracy of the spraying. This paper details the progress to date in the development of a precision robot sprayer. The precision robot sprayer is able to adjust both liquid and air volume to match, the branches contour and location of the greenhouse crops with two ultrasonic sensors which ensures the position of the plants in the greenhouse. The spraying robot with the... W. Ma, C. Zhao, Q.U. Zaman, D. Zach |
2. Spatio-temporal Analysis Of Atrazine Degradation And Associated Attributes In Eastern Colorado SoilsAtrazine catabolism is an example of a rapidly evolved soil microbial adaptation. In the last 20 years, atrazine-degrading bacteria have become globally distributed, and many soils have developed enhanced capacities to degrade atrazine, reducing its half-life from 60 to a few days or less. While the presence of atrazine-degrading bacteria determine a soil's potential to catabolize atrazine,... M. Stromberger, R. Khosla, D. Shaner, D. Zach |
3. Mapping Soil Health and Grain Quality Variations Across a Corn Field in TexasSoil health is a key property of soils influencing grain yield and quality. Within-field mapping of soil health index and grain quality can help farmers and managers to adjust site-specific farm management decisions for economic benefits. A study was conducted to map within-field soil health and grain protein and oil content variations using apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) and terrain attributes as their predictors. Two hundred and two topsoil samples were analyzed to determine soil health... K. Adhikari, D.R. Smith, C. Hajda, P.R. Owens |
