1. Delineation of Site-Specific Nutrient Management Zones to Optimize Rice Production Using Proximal Soil Sensing and Multispectral Imaging Evaluating nutrient uptake and site-specific nutrient management zones in rice in Costa Rica from plant tissue and soil sampling is expensive because of the time and labor involved. In this project, a range of measurement techniques were implemented at different vintage points (soil, plant and UAVs) in order to generate and compare nutrient management information. More precisely, delineation of site-specific nutrient management zones were determined using 1) georeferenced soil/tissue... J.E. Villalobos, J.S. Perret, K. Abdalla, C.L. Fuentes, J.C. Rodriguez, W.

2. Economics of Field Size for Autonomous Crop Machines Field size constrains spatial and temporal management of agriculture with implications for farm profitability, field biodiversity and environmental performance. Large, conventional equipment struggles to farm small, irregularly shaped fields efficiently. The study hypothesized that autonomous crop machines would make it possible to farm small non-rectangular fields profitably, thereby preserving field biodiversity and other environmental benefits. Using the experience of the Hands Free Hectare... A. Al amin, J. Lowenberg‑deboer, K. Franklin, K. Behrendt Download paper
3. Determining the Marginal Value of Extra Precision in Precision Grazing Systems – an Ex Ante Analysis of Impacts on System Productivity, Sustainability and Economics The development of precision livestock farming (PLF) technologies for application in grazing systems is rapidly evolving. PLF technologies that facilitate the spatial and temporal management of variability in landscapes, pastures and animals promise to improve the efficiency, profitability and sustainability of livestock farming. However, such technologies as a complete package do not yet exist in grazing systems and the question of impacts at the farm system level remains unresolved. Other potential... K. Behrendt, T.
