1. Assessing Precision Water Management in Cotton Using Unmanned Aerial Systems and Satellite Remote Sensing

The goal of this study was to improve agricultural sustainability and water use efficiency by allocating the right amount of water at the right place and time within the field. The objectives were to assess the effect of variable rate irrigation (VRI) on cotton growth and yield and evaluate the application of satellites and Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) in capturing the spatial and temporal patterns of cotton growth response to irrigation. Irrigation treatments with six replications of three different... O. Adedeji, W. Guo, H. Alwaseela, B. Ghimire, E. Wieber, R. Karn
