1. Implementation of ECU For Agricultural Machines Based On IsoAgLib Open SourceIn this paper work, we consider implementation of electronic control unit (ECU) for agricultural machineries. Software implementation is based on IsoAgLib library developed by OSB&IT Engineering Company. We modify IsoAgLib and upgrade it for our target system. The IsoAgLib is an object oriented C++ library that has the communication services and management systems according to the ISO 11783 standard. This library allows building ISOBUS compatible equipment without the protocols implementation... E. Tumenjargal, L. Badarch, W. Ham, H. Kwon |
2. Design and Implementation of Virtual Terminal Based On ISO11783 Standard for Agricultural TractorsThe modern agricultural machinery most common use of the embedded electronic and remote sensing technology demands adoption of the Precision Agriculture (PA). One of the common devices is the Virtual Terminal (VT) for tractor. The VT’s functions and terminology are described in the ISO11783 standard. This work presents the control system design and implementation of the VT and some Electronic Control Units (ECU) for agricultural vehicles based on the ISO 11783 standard. The VT development... E.

3. Variable Rate Fertilization for CitrusTo improve economic and environmental sustainability new management strategies has been considered to citrus production. Especially on grain crops, Precision Agriculture (PA) has proved to be a successful tool to manage crop fields according to their variability, mainly through variable rate (VRT) fertilization practice. Although VRT technology is already being used on commercial citrus orchards, few academic researches have approached... J.P. Molin, A.F. Colaço |
4. A Model to Analyze “As-Applied” Reports of Variable Rate ApplicationsVariable rate technology enables users to access crop inputs such as fertilizers and pesticides, based on site specific information. This technology combines a variable rate control system, positioning system and GIS software to enable variable rate application. During operation some of these systems report information (“as-applied” files) about target rates and actual applied rates on georeferenced points along the tracks.... A.F. Colaço, H.J. Rosa, J.P. Molin |
5. Remote NIR-Sensor Fusion with Weather Data for Improved Prediction of Wheat Yield ModelsPrediction models for grain yield based on remote sensing data are commonly shown to perform reasonably well for one single cropping season. The model performances often drop, however, when data from more years is included. This may be caused by biased data, resulting from diverging growth conditions from year to year, which affects... T.

6. Management Zones Delineation In Brazilian Citrus OrchardsPrecision Agriculture (PA) is in its first steps in Brazil citrus production. Variable rate fertilization based on soil grid sampling and yield maps has been tested in São Paulo orchards. In a long term study results showed potential on increasing fertilizer use efficiency and improving soil fertility management. Despite the good results, in some cases it is noticed that systematic methods of investigation (grid sampling and yield data) and prescription (standardized prescription equations)... M. Ruiz, D.

7. A Five Year Study Of Variable Rate Fertilization In CitrusCitrus is a major crops in Brazil, especially in the São Paulo state, which is the main citrus production region in the world. Yet, site specific technology is still in early stages of adoption. Variable rate application of inputs is the most important tool in a Precision Agriculture system, however its effect on citrus agronomical aspects are still unknown, especially during long periods of observation. Thus, variable rate fertilizer application has been tested in citrus... J.P. Molin, A.F. Colaço |
8. Automated Support Tool for Variable Rate Irrigation PrescriptionsVariable rate irrigation (VRI) enables center pivot management to better meet non-uniform water and fertility needs. This is accomplished through correctly matching system water application with spatial and temporal variability within the field. A computer program was modified to accommodate GIS data layers of grid-based field soil texture properties and fertility needs in making management decisions. The program can automatically develop a variable rate application prescription along the lateral... A.T. Nguyen, A.L. Thompson, K.A. Sudduth, E.D. Vories, A.T. Nguyen |
9. Identifying Critical Landscape Areas for Precision Conservation in the Minnesota River BasinThe Minnesota River Basin generates a disproportionately high amount of total suspended sediments to the Upper Mississippi River Basin. Many reaches in the Minnesota River Basin have impaired water quality due to turbidity. Critical landscapes can be divided into depressional areas, riparian areas, highly erodible lands, and areas susceptible to ephemeral gullies or ravines. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) were utilized, and terrain analysis was conducted using digital elevation models in... J. Galzki, J. Nelson, D. Mulla |
10. Weed Detection Among Crops by Convolutional Neural Networks with Sliding WindowsOne of the primary objectives in the field of precision agriculture is weed detection. Detecting and expunging weeds in the initial stages of crop growth with deep learning technique can minimize the usage of herbicides and maximize the crop yield for the farmers. This paper proposes a sliding window approach for the detection of weed regions using convolutional neural networks. The proposed approach involves two processes: (1) Image extraction and labelling, (2) building and training our neural... K. Kantipudi, C. Lai, C. Min, R.C. Chiang |
