1. Study On Plant Health Condition Monitoring Using Acoustic Radiation ForceIn recent years, irrigation method using the negative pressure difference attracts attention from the point of view of water saving. In addition, it is proved that this technique is effective in upbringing of the plant as well as saving of water. By measuring water distribution of soil, active irrigation control will be performed In our previous study, we confirmed that the resonance frequency of a leaf is influenced by the water stress to the plant. Thus the vibration measurement... Y. Nakagawa, M. Sano, T. Shirakawa, K. Yamagishi, T. Sugihara, M. Ohaba, S. Shibusawa, T. Sugimoto |
2. Prediction Of Cation Exchange Capacity Using Visible And Near Infrared SpectroscopyCation exchange capacity (CEC) of the soil is a measure of the soil ability to hold positively charged ions and is an important indicator of soil physicochemical characteristic. It is an important property for site specific management of soil nutrients in precision agriculture. The conventional analytical methods used for the determination of CEC are expensive, difficult and time consuming, because different cations must be extracted and determined. Visible and near infrared (vis-NIR) spectroscopy... Y. Ulusoy, Z. Tümsavas, A.M. Mouazen, Y. Tekin |
3. Soil Moisture Variability on Golf Course Fairways Across the United States: an Opportunity for Water Conservation with Precision IrrigationFairways account for an average of 11.3 irrigated hectares on each of the 15,000+ golf courses in the US. Annual median water use per hectare on fairways is between ~2,800,000 and 14,000,000 liters, depending on the region. Conventional fairway irrigation relies on visual observation of the turfgrass, followed by secondary considerations of short-term weather forecasts, which oftentimes lead to “blanket” applications to the entire area. The concept of precision irrigation is a strategy... C. Straw, C. Bolton, J. Young, R. Hejl, J. Friell, E. Watkins |
4. Management Zone-specific N Mineralization Rate Estimation in Unamended SoilSince nitrogen (N) mineralization from soil organic matter is governed by basic soil properties (soil organic matter content, pH, soil texture, …) that are known to exhibit strong in-field spatial variability, N mineralization is also expected to exhibit significant spatial variability at field scale. An ideal and efficient N recommendation for precision fertilization should therefore account for potential soil mineralizable N considering this spatial variability. Therefore, this study... F.Y.

5. Design of an Autonomous Ag Platform Capable of Field Scale Data Collection in Support of Artificial IntelligenceThe Pivot+ Array is intended to serve as an innovative, multi-user research platform dedicated to the autonomous monitoring, analysis, and manipulation of crops and inputs at the plant scale, covering extensive areas. It will effectively address many constraints that have historically limited large-scale agricultural sensor and robotic research. This achievement will be made possible by augmenting the well-established center pivot technology, known for its autonomy, with robust power infrastructure,... S. Jha, J. Krogmeier, D.
