1. Assessing the Potential of an Algorithm Based On Mean Climatic Data to Predict Wheat YieldIn crop yield prediction, the unobserved future weather remains the key point of predictions. Since weather forecasts are limited in time, a large amount of information may come from the analysis of past weather data. Mean data over the past years and stochastically generated data are two possible ways to compensate the lack of future data. This research aims to demonstrate that it is possible to predict... F.

2. Stable Isotope N-15 as Precision Technique to Investigate Elemental Sulfur Effects on Fertilizer Nitrogen Use Efficiency of Corn Grown in Calcareous Sandy Soils... A.A. Soaud, .M. Rahman, F.H. Al darwish |
3. Assembly of an Ultrasound Sensors System for Mapping of Sugar Cane HeightIn Precision Agriculture, the use of sensors provides faster data collection on plant, soil, and climate, allowing collecting larger sample sets with better information quality. The objective of this study was the development of a system for plant height measurement in order to mapping of sugar cane crop, so that regions with plant growth variation and grow failures could be identified...

4. Optimizing Site-Specific Adaptive Management Using A Probabilistic Framework: Evaluating Model Performance Using Historic DataAgricultural producers are tasked with managing crop yield responses to nitrogen (N) within systems that have high levels of spatial (biophysical), climatic, and price uncertainty. To date, the outcome of most variable rate application (VRA) research has focused on the spatial dimension, proposing optimal fertilizer prescription maps that can be applied year after year. However, temporally static prescriptions can result in suboptimal outcomes, particularly if they do... L.J. Rew, B.D. Maxwell, P.G. Lawrence |
5. Detection of Nitrogen Stress on Winter Wheat by Multispectral Machine VisionHand-held sensors (SPAD meter, N-Tester, …) used for detecting the leaves nitrogen concentration (Nc) present several drawbacks. The nitrogen concentration is gained by an indirect way through the chlorophyll concentration and the leaves have to be fixed in a defined position for the measurements. These drawbacks could be overcome by an imaging device that measures the canopy reflectance. Hence, the objective of the paper is to analyse the potential of multispectral imaging for detecting... M.

6. FOODIE Data Model for Precision AgricultureThe agriculture sector is a unique sector due to its strategic importance for both citizens (consumers) and economy (regional and global), which ideally should make the whole sector a network of interacting organizations. The FOODIE project aims at building an open and interoperable agricultural specialized platform hub on the cloud for the management of spatial and non-spatial data relevant for farming production. The FOODIE service platform deals with including their thematic, spatial, and temporal... K. Charvat, T. Reznik, K. Charvat jr., V. Lukas, S. Horakova, M. Kepka |
7. Quo Vadis Precision FarmingThe agriculture sector is a unique sector due to its strategic importance for both citizens and economy which, ideally, should make the whole sector a network of interacting organizations. There is an increasing tension, the like of which is not experienced in any other sector, between the requirements to assure full safety and keep costs under control, but also assure the long-term strategic interests of Europe and worldwide. In that sense, agricultural production influences, and is influenced... K. Charvat, T. Reznik, V. Lukas, K. Charvat jr., S. Horakova, M. Splichal, M. Kepka |
8. Spatial Variability of Canopy Volume in a Commercial Citrus GroveLiDAR (light detection and ranging) sensors have shown good potential to estimate canopy volume and guide variable rate applications in different fruit crops. Oranges are a major crop in Brazil; however the spatial variability of geometrical parameters remains still unknown in large commercial groves, as well as the potential benefit of sensor guided variable rate applications. Thus, the objective of this work was to characterize the spatial variability of the canopy volume in a commercial orange... A.F. Colaço, J.P. Molin, R.G. Trevisan, J.R. Rosell-polo, A. Escolà |
