1. Economic Analysis Of Auto-swath Control For Alabama Crop Production

With the rising costs of fertilizer and pesticides and a push towards increasing environmental stewardship, farmers are seeking means to save money while preserving the environment and wildlife habitat. One technology that aids in remedying these concerns is auto-swath control. This investigation evaluates overlap savings using this technology on different application equipment and resulting in economic savings for those adopting it. Several field boundaries were obtained from across the state... D. Mullenix, A.M. Troesch, J.P. Fulton, A.T. Winstead, S.H. Norwood

2. Adoption And Use Of Precision Agriculture Technologies By Practitioners

A survey of farmers and farm service providers were initiated to ascertain the adoption and use of precision agriculture technologies as well as the barriers to and incentives for adoption. Farm-level data were collected via audience response system at the 2009 Alabama Precision Ag and Field Crops Conference and local winter production meetings across the six crop reporting districts in Alabama. Service provider data were collected using an online survey. Questions common to farmers and service... A.T. Winstead, S.H. Norwood, T. Griffin, A.M. Adrian, M. Runge, J.P. Fulton

3. PA Education: Using Social Media

Social media and web-based applications are gaining in popularity for disseminating information and communicating with others. The traditional method of transferring information through print and face-to-face meetings is now often supplemented and/or replaced by web-based outlets. The Alabama Precision Agriculture Program initiated a social media and web campaign as a method of distributing educational information while gaining recognition as a source for precision... A.T.

4. A Case Study For Variable-rate Seeding Of Corn And Cotton In The Tennessee Valley Of Alabama

      Farmers have recently become more interested in implementing variable-rate seeding of corn and cotton in Alabama due to increasing seed costs and the potential to maximize yields site-specifically due to inherent field variability.  Therefore, an on-farm case study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of variable-rate seeding for a corn and cotton rotation. ...
