1. Development Of A System For Site-specific Nematicide Placement In CottonNematode distribution varies significantly in cotton fields. Population density throughout a field is highly correlated to soil texture. Field-wide application of a uniform nematicide rate results in the chemical being applied to areas without nematodes or where nematode densities are below an economic threshold, or the application of sub-effective levels in areas with high nematode densities. The investigators have developed a “Site- Specific Nematicide Placement”... A. Khalilian, W. Henderson, J. Mueller, T. Kirkpatrick, S. Monfort, C. Overstreet |
2. Does Nitrogen Balance Surplus Done At Field Level Help To Assess Environmental Effects Of Variable Nitrogen Application In Winter Wheat?Increased nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is important as a specific consideration to decrease negative impacts of nitrogen (N) on the environment and provide better crop quality. Therefore, in many European countries N is used with restrictions due to UE regulations, set to increase NUE. This is particularly important in wheat production because this crop in EU accounts for 48% of cereal production and uses about 25% of total N-fertilizer applied. One of the methods applied to increase NUE... S.M. Samborski |
3. Use of Remotely Measured Potato Canopy Characteristics As Indirect Yield EstimatorsPrediction of potato yield before harvest is important for making agronomic and marketing decisions. Active optical sensors (AOS) are rarely used together with other hand-held instruments for monitoring potato growth, including yield prediction. The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between manually and remotely measured potato crop characteristics throughout the growing season and yield in commercial potato fields. Objective was also to identify crop characteristics that most... S.M. Samborski, J. Szatylowicz, T. Gnatowski, R. Leszczyńska, M. Thornton, O. Walsh |
