1. Determination of Sensor Locations for Monitoring of Soil Water Content in GreenhouseMonitoring and control of environmental condition is highly important for optimum control of the conditions, especially in greenhouse and plant factor, and the condition...

2. Spot- Application of Pre-Emergence Herbicide Using a Variable Rate Sprayer in Wild BlueberryWild blueberry producers apply herbicides uniformly to control grasses and weeds without considering the significant weed density variability and bare spots within fields. The repeated and excessive use of herbicides... Q. Zaman, Y. Chang, A. Farooque, A. Schumann, D. Percival, M. Cheema, T. Esau |
3. Impact of Variable Rate Fertilization on Nutrients Losses in Surface Runoff for Wild Blueberry FieldsWild blueberry producers apply agrochemicals uniformly without considering substantial variation in soil properties, topographic features that may affect fruit yield within field. A wild blueberry field was selected to evaluate the impact of variable rate (VR) fertilization on nutrient losses in surface runoff from steep slope to low lying areas to improve crop... S.

4. Precision Nutrient Management System Based on Ion and Crop Growth SensingAutomated sensing and variable-rate supply of nutrients in hydroponic solutions according to the status of crop growth would allow more efficient nutrient management for crop growth in closed systems. The Structure from Motion (SfM) method has risen as a new image sensing method to obtain 3D images of plants that can be used to estimate their growth, such as leaf cover area (LCA), plant height, and fresh weight. In this sense, sensor fusion technology combining ion-selective electrodes (ISEs)... W. Cho, D. Kim, C. Kang, H. Kim, J. Son, S. Chung, J. Jiang, H. Yun |
5. Effective Use of a Debris Cleaning Brush for Mechanical Wild Blueberry HarvestingWild blueberries are an important horticultural crop native to northeastern North America. Management of wild blueberry fields has improved over the past decade causing increased plant density and leaf foliage. The majority of wild blueberry fields are picked mechanically using tractor mounted harvesters with 16 rotating rakes that gently comb through the plants. The extra foliage has made it more difficult for the cleaning brush to remove unwanted debris (leaf, stems, weeds, etc.) from the picker... K. Esau, Q. Zaman, A. Farooque, A. Schumann |
6. Enhancing Rice Disease Management: Estimating Pathogen Damage Through Multispectral Imaging AnalysisThis study investigates the application of multispectral imaging (MSI) in conjunction with machine learning algorithms for the early detection and estimation of pathogen damage in rice crops, with a specific focus on Bacterial Leaf Blight (BLB) and Blast diseases. Rice plays a crucial role in global food security, yet these diseases significantly compromise its production. Traditional diagnostic methods are often labor-intensive and time-consuming, necessitating the adoption of innovative technologies.... I. Sutrisna wijaya |
7. Development of Ai-based Energy Management Strategy in Seawater Desalination Plant Based on Physical ModelingGlobal water scarcity is becoming increasingly severe, and seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) has become a major technology for freshwater production due to its high efficiency. However, membrane fouling during long-term operation increases transmembrane pressure, reduces flux, and raises energy demand, ultimately lowering efficiency and shortening membrane lifetime. Traditional control and prediction methods struggle with the nonlinear and dynamic nature of these processes. To address this, we propose... W. Sean |
8. Development of a Smart Low-Carbon Greenhouse Integrated Plasma- Activated Water and Second-Life EV BatteriesGlobal warming and the excessive use of nitrogen fertilizers pose significant challenges to sustainable agriculture. This study presents a smart low-carbon greenhouse system powered by a solar photovoltaic microgrid, integrated with second-life electric vehicle batteries and a real-time energy management system. Plasma-activated water (PAW) technology is employed to reduce dependence on chemical nitrogen fertilizers while enhancing crop productivity and reducing nitrous oxide emissions. The system... W.
