1. Saltmed Model As An Integrated Management Tool For Precision Management Of Water, Crop, Soil, And FertilizersSALTMED-2009: A modelling tool for Precision Agriculture R. Ragab Centre for Ecology and Hydrology,... R. Ragab |
2. Precision Manure Management: It Matters Where You Put Your Manure“Precision fertilizer management” has been around for more than a decade and is practiced widely in Colorado and elsewhere. By precision, we mean application of fertilizer at the right time, in the right place, and in the right amount. However, “Precision Manure Management” is a relatively new concept that converge the best manure management practices with precision nutrient management practices, such as variable rate nutrient application across site-specific management...

3. Multi, Super Or Hyper Spectral Data, The Right Way From Research Toward Application In AgricultureRemote sensing provides opportunities for diverse applications in agriculture. One consideration of maximizing the utility of these applications, is the need to choose the most efficient spectral resolution. Picking the optimal spectral resolutions (multi, super or hyper) for a specific application is also influenced by other factors (e.g., spatial and temporal resolutions) of the utilized device. This work focuses mainly on... D.J. Bonfil, I. Herrmann, A. Pimstein, A. Karnieli |
4. Weeds Detection By Ground-level Hyperspectral ImagingWeeds are a severe pest in agriculture, causing extensive yield loss. Weed control of grass and broadleaf weeds is commonly performed by applying selective herbicides homogeneously all over the field. As presented in several studies, applying the herbicide only where needed has economical as well as environmental benefits. Combining remote sensing tools and techniques with the concept of precision agriculture has the potential to automatically... U. Shapira , I. Herrmann, A. Karnieli, D.J. Bonfil |
5. Assessment Of Field Crops Leaf Area Index By The Red-edge Inflection Point Derived From Venus BandsThe red-edge region of leaves spectrum (700-800 nm) corresponds to the spectral region that connects the chlorophyll absorption in the red and the amplified reflectance caused by the leaf structure in the near infrared (NIR) parts of the spectrum. At the canopy level, the inflection point of the red-edge slope is influenced by the plant’s condition that is related to several properties, including Leaf Area Index (LAI) and plant nutritional status....

6. Precision Agriculture In New Zealand’s Farming SystemsTo date New Zealand farmers do not realize how involved they are in Precision Agriculture (PA). As arable farmers we know how many kilograms of nitrogen (N) it takes to grow a tonne of wheat, how many kilograms of seed we can produce for every millimetre of water that is applied (through irrigation and/or rainfall) and yet we don’t believe we are involved in PA. As dairy farmers we are matching feed requirements to the specific production level of individual cows. We are... C. Mackenzie, C. Mackenzie |
7. Early Identification Of Leaf Rust On Wheat Leaves With Robust Fitting Of Hyperspectral SignaturesEarly recognition of pathogen infection is of great relevance in precision plant protection. Disease detection before the occurrence of visual symptoms is of particular interest. By use of a laserfluoroscope, UV-light induced fluorescence data were collected from healthy and with leaf rust infected wheat leaves of the susceptible cv. Ritmo 2-4 days after inoculation under controlled conditions. In order to evaluate disease impact on spectral characteristics 215 wavelengths in the range of 370-800... C. R, T. Rumpf, K. B, M.

8. Development Of A Nitrogen Requirement Algorithm Using Ground-based Active Remote Sensors In Irrigated MaizeStudies have shown that normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) from ground-based active remote sensors is highly related with leaf N content in maize (Zea mays). Remotely sensed NDVI imagery can provide valuable information about in-field N variability in maize and significant linear relationships between sensor NDVI and maize grain yield have been found suggesting that an N recommendation algorithm based on NDVI could optimize N application. Therefore, a study was conducted using the two... T. Shaver, R. Khosla, D. Westfall |

10. Design And Experiment On Target Spraying Robot For GreenhouseIn greenhouse, the robot sprayers give rise to concern as they reduce the labor intensity and improve the accuracy of the spraying. This paper details the progress to date in the development of a precision robot sprayer. The precision robot sprayer is able to adjust both liquid and air volume to match, the branches contour and location of the greenhouse crops with two ultrasonic sensors which ensures the position of the plants in the greenhouse. The spraying robot with the... W. Ma, C. Zhao, Q.U. Zaman, D. Zach |
