1. Understanding Spatial and Temporal Variability of Wheat Yield: An Integrated System ApproachSpatial variation in soil water and nitrogen are often the causes of crop yield spatial variability due to their influence on the uniformity of plant stand at emergence and for in-season stresses. Natural and acquired variability in production capacity or potential within a field causes uniform agronomic management practices for the field to be correct in some parts and inappropriate in others. To achieve... B. Basso, C. Fiorentino, D. Cammarano, A. D'errico |
2. First Results Of Development Of A Smart Farm In The NetherlandsGNSS technology has been introduced on about 20 % of the Dutch arable farms in The Netherlands today. Use of sensor technology is also slowly but gradually being adopted by farmers, providing them large amounts of digital data on soil, crop and climate conditions. Typical data are spatial variation in soil organic matter, crop biomass, crop yield, and presence of pests and diseases. We still have to make major steps to use all this data in a way that agriculture becomes more sustainable. We... T. Feher, C. Kocks, C. Kempenaar, K. Westerdijk |
3. Yield, Residual Nitrogen and Economic Benefit of Precision Seeding and Laser Land Leveling for Winter WheatRapid socio-economic changes in China, such as land conversion and urbanization etc., are creating new scopes for application of precision agriculture (PA). It remains unclear the application effective and economic benefits of precision agriculture technologies in China. In this study, our specific goal was to analyze the impact of precision seeding and laser land leveling on winter wheat yield,... J. Chen , P.L. Chen, J.C. Zhao, S.Y. Wang, J.C. Li, Q. Zhang, T.H.

4. Integrated Approach to Site-specific Soil Fertility ManagementIn precision agriculture the lack of affordable methods for mapping relevant soil attributes is a fundamental problem. It restricts the development and application of advanced models and algorithms for decision making. The project “I4S - Integrated System for Site-Specific Soil Fertility Management” combines new sensing technologies with dynamic soil-crop models and decision support systems. Using sensors with different measurement principles improves the estimation of soil fertility... R. Gebbers, V. Dworak, B. Mahns, C. Weltzien, D. Büchele, I. Gornushkin, M. Mailwald, M. Ostermann, M. Rühlmann, T. Schmid, M. Maiwald, B. Sumpf, J. Rühlmann, M. Bourouah, H. Scheithauer, K. Heil, T. Heggemann, M. Leenen, S. Pätzold, G. Welp, T. Chudy, A. Mizgirev, P. Wagner, T. Beitz, M. Kumke, D.

5. Mapping Leaf Area Index of Maize in Tasseling Stage Based on Beer-Lambert Law and Landsat-8 ImageLeaf area index (LAI) is one of the important structural parameters of crop population, which could be used to monitor the variety of crop canopy structure and analyze photosynthesis rate. Mapping leaf area index of maize in a large scale by using remote sensing technology is very important for management of fertilizer and water, monitoring growth change and predicting yield. The Beer-Lambert law has been preliminarily applied to develop inversion model of crop LAI, and has achieved good application... X. Gu, S. Wang, G. Yang, X. Xu |
6. Shared Protocols and Data Template in Agronomic TrialsDue to the overlap of many disciplines and the availability of novel technologies, modern agriculture has become a wide, interdisciplinary endeavor, especially in Precision Agriculture. The adoption of a standard format for reporting field experiments can help researchers to focus on the data rather than on re-formatting and understanding the structure of the data. This paper describes how a European consortium plans to: i) create a “handbook” of protocols for reporting definitions,... D. Cammarano, D. Drexler, P. Hinsinger, P. Martre, X. Draye, A.

7. Evaluating a Satellite Remote Sensing and Calibration Strip-based Precision Nitrogen Management Strategy for Corn in Minnesota and IndianaPrecision nitrogen (N) management (PNM) aims to match N supply with crop N demand in both space and time and has the potential to improve N use efficiency (NUE), increase farmer profitability, and reduce N losses and negative environmental impacts. However, current PNM adoption rate is still quite low. A remote sensing and calibration strip-based PNM strategy (RS-CS-PNM) has been developed by the Precision Agriculture Center at the University of Minnesota.... K. Mizuta, Y. Miao, A.C. Morales, L.N.
