2. A Portable Instrument For Recognition Of Farm Weeds And Management Of Chemical SprayWith the information technology being popularization and application and farmers’ knowledge level being increase in China, smartphone has been accepted by peasants used as terminal of information collection and query. Recently, because of the serious diseases and insect pests, it is impossible to prevent and control these disasters when we only rely on grassroots staffs’ investigation or professors’ instruction. If each of these farmers distributed in all of the country... S. Jian, W. Xiu, Z.D. Yan |
3. Net Returns and Production Use Efficiency for Optical Sensing and Variable Rate Nitrogen Technologies in Cotton ProductionThis research evaluated the profitability and N use efficiency of real time on-the-go optical sensing measurements (OPM) and variable-rate technologies (VRT) to manage spatial variability in cotton production in the Mississippi River Basin states of Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee. Two forms of OPM and VRT and the existing farmer practice (FP) were used to determine N fertilizer rates applied to cotton on farm fields in the four states. Changes in yields and N rates due to OPM... J.A. Larson, M. Stefanini, D.M. Lambert, X. Yin, C.N. Boyer, J.J. Varco, P.C. Scharf , B.S. Tubaña, D. Dunn, H.J. Savoy, M.J. Buschermohle, D.D. Tyler |
4. A Comparison of Three-Dimensional Data Acquisition Methods for Phenotyping ApplicationsCurrently Phenotyping is primarily performed using two-dimensional imaging techniques. While this yields interesting data about a plant, a lot of information is lost using regular cameras. Since a plant is three-dimensional, the use of dedicated 3D-imaging sensors provides a much more complete insight into the phenotype of the plant. Different methods for 3D-data acquisition are available, each with their inherent advantages and disadvantages. These have to be addressed depending on the particular... O. Scholz, F. Uhrmann, S.

5. Creating a Comprehensive Software Framework for Sensor-driven Precision AgricultureRobots and GPS-guided tractors are the backbone of smart farming and precision agriculture. Many companies and vendors contribute to the market, each offering their own customized solutions for common tasks. These developments are often based on vendor-specific, proprietary components, protocols and software. Many small companies that produce sensors, actuators or software for niche applications could contribute their expertise to the global efforts of creating smart farming solutions, if their... O.

6. Potential for Improving African Smallholder Cereal Farming Using Sentinel-2A Spectral ReflectanceCereal crops are critical for African smallholder farmers seeking to improve regional food availability, yet many struggle with low productivity from non optimal practices. This present study evaluated the possibility of using the satellite Sentinel-2 Multispectral Instrument data to inform management techniques tailored to African small-scale cereal farms’ local conditions. Improved practices maize, wheat, and rice plots were established respectively in Togo, Tunisia, and Tanzania... A. Biaou, S. Phillips |
