1. Use of Non-Invasive Sensors to Detect Beneficial Effects of Fungicides on Wheat PhysiologyDelay of leaf senescence is a beneficial side effect of fungicides several times studied on cereal crops. Strobilurins have been shown to extend the green leaf area duration (GLAD) for more than one week compared to untreated plants. The use of non-invasive sensors which allow to detect early changes in canopy pigmentation is an excellent method to assess the effect of fungicides on plant senescence. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of fungicides on wheat physiology by using... C.A. Berdugo, U. Steiner, E. Oerke, H. Dehne, A. Mahlein |
2. Towards Precision MicrobiologyIn the recent years, the use of organic matter (OM) and microorganisms is increasing beyond organic agriculture, into conventional horticultural systems, in order to achieve high yields and quality through a more sustainable soil management. Thus, Integrated Nutrient Management (INM), that includes the use of diagnostic tools, high quality OM, microbial inoculants, highly-efficient fertilizer, and site-specific management in gaining space in intensive production systems. Precision microbiology... V. Gutiérrez, R. Ortega |
3. Machine Monitoring As a Smartfarming Concept ToolCurrent development trends are associated with the digitization of production processes and the interconnection of individual information layers from multiple sources into common databases, contexts and functionalities. In order to automatic data collection of machine operating data, the farm tractors were equipped with monitoring units ITineris for continuous collection and transmission of information from tractors CAN Bus. All data sets are completed with GPS location data. Acreage... M. Kroulik, V. Brant, P. Zabransky, J. Chyba, V. Krcek, M. Skerikova |
4. Using Precision Agriculture Tools and Improved Data Analysis for Evaluating Effects of Integrated Nutrient Management ProgramsIntegrated nutrient management (INM) practices are becoming common under intensive agricultural systems in Chile. Practices include, the use of organic matter, in different sources, soil microbial inoculants, and the application of biostimulants, of different origin. Compared to the application of macronutrients, for example, the effects of these products on crops are rather modest and require lower experimental errors to be proven; besides, trials made at the field level, many times do not have...

5. How Digital is Agriculture in South America? Adoption and LimitationsA rapidly growing population in a context of land and water scarcity, and climate change has driven an increase in healthy, nutritious, and affordable food demand while maintaining the current cropping area. Digital agriculture (DA) can contribute solutions to meet the demands in an efficient and sustainable way. South America (SA) is one of the main grain and protein producers in the world but the status of DA in the region is unknown. This article presents the results from a systematic review... G.
