1. Static and Kinematic Tests for Determining Spreaders Effective WidthSpinner box spreaders are intensively used in Brazil for variable rate applications of lime in agriculture. The control of that operation is a challenging issue because of the complexity involved on the interactions between product and machine. Quantification of transverse distribution of solids thrown from the spinner box spreaders involves dynamic conditions tests where the material deposited on trays is evaluated along the pass of the machinery. There is a need of alternative testing methods... L. Maldaner, T. Canata, J. Molin, B. Passalaqua, J.J. Quirós |
2. Field Grown Apple Nursery Tree Plant Counting Based on Small UAS Imagery Derived Elevation MapsIn recent years, growers in the state are transitioning to new high yielding, pest and disease resistant cultivars. Such transition has created high demand for new tree fruit cultivars. Nursery growers have committed their incoming production of the next few years to meet such high demands. Though an opportunity, tree fruit nursery growers must grow and keep the pre-sold quantity of plants to supply the amount promised to the customers. Moreover, to keep the production economical amidst rising... M. Martello, J.J. Quirós, L. Khot |
