2. Design Of ECU Monitoring System For Agricultural Vehicle Based On ISO 11783International standard for implementation of electronic control unit (ECU) in agricultural tractors has been requirement for inter-operation compatibility of various agricultural vehicles. The ISO 11783 standard is basically based on communication technology designated using the controller area network (CAN), it is typical standard technology for implementation of ECU in agricultural vehicle. CAN bus Communication system was developed to the distribution control of ECUs to... W. Yang , S. Kim, J. Moon, D. Kim |
3. Basic Tests Of pH And EC Probes For Automatic Real Time Nutrient Control In Protected Crop ProductionResearch on greenhouse and plant factory has been actively conducting to provide a stable growth environment. In plant factory, EC concentration (EC) and acidity (pH) of nutrient have a significant impact on physiological and morphological of plant. Therefore, EC and pH are important element for automatic control of nutrient solution. In this study, performance pH and EC sensors was evaluated for the responsiveness, accuracy and displacement. This study includes development of environmental... Y. Choo, S. Chung, Y. Huh, Y. Kim, S. Jang, K. Jung |
4. Prototype Unmanned Aerial Sprayer for Plant Protection in Agricultural and Horticultural CropsAerial application of pesticides has the potential to reduce the amount of pesticides required as chemicals are applied where needed. A prototype Unmanned Aerial Sprayer with a payload of 20 kg; a spraying rate of 6 liters per minute; a spraying swathe of 3 meters, coverage rate of 2 to 4 meters per second and 10 minutes of flight time was built using state of the art technologies. The project is a joint development by University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad, KLE Technological University,... S. Reddy, D.P. Biradar, V.C. Patil, B.L. Desai, V.B. Nargund, P. Patil, V.

5. Wheat Biomass Estimation Using Visible Aerial Images and Artificial Neural NetworkIn this study, visible RGB-based vegetation indices (VIs) from UAV high spatial resolution (1.9 cm) remote sensing images were used for modeling shoot biomass of two Brazilian wheat varieties (TBIO Toruk and BRS Parrudo). The approach consists of a combination of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with several Vegetation Indices to model the measured crop biomass at different growth stages. Several vegetation indices were implemented: NGRDI (Normalized Green-Red Difference Index), CIVE (Color Index... M.R. De souza, T.D. Bertani, A. Parraga, C. Bredemeier, C. Trentin, D. Doering, A.

6. Economics of Swarm Bot Profitability for Cotton HarvestImproved equipment management is one way which producers can increase profits. For cotton, this is especially true due to specialized equipment used for the sole purpose of harvest. Questions are raised regarding a way to either reduce or replace traditional cotton pickers. The main alternative being discussed is an investment in autonomous “swarm bots” to replace traditional equipment. Swarm bots are fully automated robots tasked with the responsibility of picking cotton one row at... J. Cullop, T.W. Griffin, G. Ibendahl, E. Barnes, J. Shockley, J. Devine |

8. Design and Performance Experiment of an Outer Grooved-Wheel Fertilizer Apparatus with the Helical ToothTraditional outer groove-wheel fertilizer apparatus (OGWFA) with the straight tooth exists the problem of breakage and pulsation in the fertilizing process. A new type of OGWFA with the helical tooth has been designed to solve this problem, and the amount of fertilizer can be adjusted. The helix angle of the helical tooth has been optimized by theory analysis and DEM simulation. It reveals that the helix angle should be ranged from 34.4° to 68.8°. The performances of the OGWFA with the... D. Jun, X. Junfang, Z. Wangyuan, W. Qiaohua, D. Youchun, S. Caixia, Z. Zhihui |
9. Development of a Wireless Sensor Network for Passive in situ Measurement of Soil CO2 Gas Emissions in the Agriculture LandscapeQuantification of soil Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions from agricultural fields is essential for understanding the environmental impact of intensive crop and livestock production systems. Current methods of analysis include flux calculations derived from the concentration of gases (CO2, N2O, CH4) exchanged between soil and the atmosphere. Samples of these GHG are obtained manually by closed non-steady state non-flow through,or “static”, chambers and analyzed ex situvia gas... V. Adamchuk, M. Debbagh, C. Madramootoo, J. Whalen |
10. Is Row-unit Vibration Affected by Planter Speeds and Downforce?Row-unit vibration is an issue created mainly by planter`s opening disks and gauge-wheels contact with the ground. Variability on row-unit vibration could interfere on seed metering and delivery process, affecting crop emergence and final stand. With the amount of embedded technology present on planters, producers are being encouraged to increase planting speeds, which is also one of the main factors for row-unit vibration increasement. In this way, knowing the proper speeds, and using other instruments... L.P. Oliveira, B.V. Ortiz, G.T. Morata, T. Squires, J. Jones |
