1. On-Farm Trials Using Precision Ag in Northeast LouisianaThe availability of yield monitors and precision application equipment on producers’ farms have made it much easier for researchers to take the results from experiment station trials and apply them to producers’ fields. Treatments/methods are applied in strips, by prescription, embedded plots or in combination. Fields are divided into zones for analyzing the harvest yield data. These can include soil type, soil Ec, or other criteria. Treatments are analyzed... D. Burns, D. Overstreet, D. Kruse, R. Frazier, D. Blanche |
2. Conditioning Factors For Decision-Making Regarding Precision Agriculture Techniques UsageThe eventual goal of using the techniques of precision agriculture (described as inputs applied at varied rates) is to get one of the following results: (a) lowering cost by reducing inputs, (b) decreasing the pollution of water, soil and the atmosphere and (c) increasing agricultural productivity by the more efficient use of inputs. However, studies on these techniques do not reach similar conclusions. This could be expected, since the effectiveness of these techniques would depend... H.L. Burnquist, C.C. Costa |
