1. Sustainable Grain Production With Continuous Improvements And Lean ProductionFew farmers are dedicated to critically examine their production processes. When something needs to be improved, the focus is on production with a concentration on the biological. But the profitability of a company is created by the production (what I do) and organization (how I do it). Agricultural advisory services are well developed in Sweden with services related to biological production (crop production planning, soil mapping, etc.) but there are no corresponding activities...

2. Evaluating low-cost Lidar and Active Optical Sensors for pasture and forage biomass assessmentAccurate and reliable assessment of pasture or forage biomass remains one of the key challenges for grazing industries. Livestock managers require accurate estimates of the grassland biomass available over their farm to enable optimal stocking rate decisions. This paper reports on our investigations into the potential application of affordable Lidar (Light Detection and Ranging) systems and Active Optical (reflectance) Sensors (AOS) to estimate pasture biomass. We evaluated the calibration accuracy... M. Trotter, K. Andersson, M. Welch, M. Chau, L. Frizzel, D. Schneider |
