1. Detecting Nitrogen Variability at Early Growth Stages of Wheat by Active Fluorescence and NDVILow efficiency in the use of nitrogen fertilizer, has been reported around the world which often times result in high production costs and environmental damage. Today, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) cameras are being used to obtain conditions of crops, and can cover large areas in a short time. The objectives of this study were (i) to investigate N-variability in wheat at early growth stages using induced fluorescence indices, NDVI measured by active sensor and NDVI obtained by digital imagery;...

2. Remote Sensing-based Biomass Maps for an Efficient Use of FertilizersFor decades the main objective of farmers was to get the highest yields from their farmland. Nowadays, quality of agricultural products is becoming more and more important for the largest returns. In addition, the effects on our environment are also becoming important. These put increasing limitations on modern agriculture. So-called site-specific management can optimize the input of, for instance, nutrients and pesticides to the need of the plants. In this study, the objective was to study whether... J.G. P.w clevers, K.H. Wijnholds, J.N. Jukema |
3. Field Phenotyping and an Example of Proximal Sensing of PhotosynthesisField phenotyping conceptually can be divided in five pillars 1) traits of interest 2) sensors to measure these traits 3) positioning systems to allow high throughput measurements by the sensors 4) experimental sites and 5) environmental monitoring. In this paper we will focus on photosynthesis as trait of interest, measured by remote active fluorescence. The sensor presented is the Light Induced Fluorescence Transient (LIFT) instrument. The LIFT instrument is integrated in three positioning systems.... O. Muller, B. Keller, L. Zimmermanm, C. Jedmowski, V. Pingle, K. Acebron, N. Zendonadi, A. Steier, R. Pieruschka, U. Schurr, U.

4. Overcoming Educational Barriers for Precision Agriculture Adoption: a University Diploma in Precision Agriculture in ArgentinaThe lack of educational programs in Precision Agriculture (PA) has been reported as one of the barriers for adoption. Our goal was to improve professional competence in PA through education in crop variability, management, and effective practices of PA in real cases. In the last 20 years different efforts has been made in Argentina to increase adoption of PA. The Universidad Nacional de Rio Cuarto (UNRC) launched in 2021 the first University Diploma in PA, a 9-month program to train agronomist... G. Balboa, A. Degioanni, R. Bongiovanni, R. Melchiori, C.
