1. Development Of Ground-based Sensor System For Automated Agricultural Vehicle To Detect Diseases In Citrus PlantationsAn integrated USDA-funded project involving Carnegie Mellon University, University of Florida, Cornell University and John Deere is ongoing, to develop an autonomous tractors for sustainable specialty crop farming. The research teams have come together to develop an automated system for detecting plant stress, estimating yields, and reducing chemical usage through precision spraying for specialty crops. The goals of the automation process are to reduce the tractor-related labor costs, reduce... S. Sankaran, R. Ehsani, A. Mishra, C. Dima |
2. High-resolution Mapping with On-the-go Soil Sensor and Its Relation with Corn Yield and Soil Acidity in a Dystrophic Red OxisolSpatial representations of soil attributes with low resolution can lead to gross errors of recommendation and compromise the efficiency of soil corrections and consequently the grain yield. However, obtaining the spatial variability of soil attributes with high resolution by soil sampling is not recommended because of its large time spent and high cost of laboratory analysis what makes difficult their large-scale application. This way, the on-the-go soil sensing has been used in precision agriculture... G.M. Corassa, T.J. Amado, R.A. Schwalbert, G.B. reimche, D. Dalla nora, T. . horbe, F.M. tabaldi |
3. Establishment of a Canola Emergence Assessment Methodology Using Image-based Plant Count and Ground Cover AnalysisManual assessment of emergence is a time-consuming practice that must occur within a short time-frame of the emergence stage in canola (Brassica napus). Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) may allow for a more thorough assessment of canola emergence by covering a wider scope of the field and in a more timely manner than in-person evaluations. This research aims to calibrate the relationship between emerging plant population count and the ground cover. The field trial took place at the University... K. Krys, S. Shirtliffe, H. Duddu, T.
