2. Spectral Models for Estimation of Chlorophyll Content, Nitrogen, Moisture Stress and Growth of Wheat CropField experiments were conducted during 2009-10 and 2010-11 at research farm of the department of Farm Machinery and Power Engineering, Punjab Agricultural university, Ludhiana. Three wheat ... B.S. Sekhon, J. Mukherjee, A. Sharma, S.K. Thind, R. Kaur, M.S. Makkar |
3. Comparison Of Management Zones Generated By The K-Means And Fuzzy C-Means MethodsThe generation of Management Zones (MZ) is an economic alternative to make viable the precision agriculture (RODRIGUES & ZIMBACK, 2002) because they work as operation units for the inputs localized application and as soil and culture sample indicators. For the field division in... E. Souza, K. Schenatto, F. Rodrigues, D. Rocha, C. Bazzi |
4. Privacy Issues and the Use of UASs/Drones in MarylandAccording to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the lawful use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), also known as Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), or more commonly as drones, are currently limited to military, research, and recreational applications. Under the FAA’s view, commercial uses of drones are illegal unless approved by the Federal government. This will change in the future. Congress authorized the FAA to develop regulations for the use of drones by private... P. Goeringer, A. Ellixson, J. Moyle |
5. Prediction of Nitrogen Needs with Nitrogen-rich Strips and Ramped Nitrogen StripsBoth nitrogen rich strips and ramped nitrogen strips have been used to estimate topdress nitrogen needs for winter wheat based on in-season optical reflectance data. The ramped strip system places a series of small plots in each field with increasing levels of nitrogen to determine the application rate at which predicted yield response to nitrogen reaches a plateau. The nitrogen-rich strip system uses a nitrogen fertilizer optimization algorithm based on optical reflectance measures from the nitrogen-rich... D.C. Roberts, B.W. Brorsen, W.R. Raun, J.B. Solie |
6. Joint Structure and Colour Based Parametric Classification of Grapevine Organs from Proximal Images Through Several Critical Phenological StagesProximal colour imaging is the most time and cost-effective automated technology to acquire high-resolution data describing accurately the trellising plane of grapevine. The available textural information is meaningful enough to provide altogether the assessment of additional agronomic parameters that are still estimated either manually or with dedicated and expensive instrumentations. This paper proposes a new framework for the classification of the different organs visible in the trellising... F.Y. Abdelghafour, R. Rosu, B. Keresztes, C. Germain, J. Da costa |
7. Rapid Identification of Mulberry Leaf Pests Based on Near Infrared Hyperspectral ImagingAs one of the most common mulberry pests, Diaphania pyloalis Walker (Lepidoptera: Pyralididae) has occurred and damaged in the main sericulture areas of China. Naked eye observation, the most dominating method identifying the damage of Diaphania pyloalis, is time-wasting and labor consuming. In order to improve the identification and diagnosis efficiency and avoid the massive outbreak of Diaphania pyloalis, near infrared (NIR) hyperspectral imaging technology combined with partial least discriminant...

8. Response of Canola and Wheat to Application of Enhanced Efficiency Nitrogen Fertilizers on Contrasting Management ZonesInvestment on nitrogen (N) fertilizers is a major cost of growers, and variable rate (VR) application of N fertilizers could help optimize its usage. In the growing season of 2023, field experiments were conducted at four sites (i.e., Watrous – Saskatchewan SK and two fields in the vicinity of Strathmore, Alberta AB, Canada). The main objectives were to (i) determine performance of Enhanced Efficiency N Fertilizers - EENF (i.e., Coated urea, urea with double inhibitors - DI, urea mixed with... H. Asgedom, G. Hehar, C.
