1. Climate Change And Sustainable Precision Crop Production With Regard To Maize (Zea Mays L.)Precision crop production research activities were started during the mid-‘90s at the Institute of Biosystems Engineering, Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences, University of West Hungary. On the basis of the experiences with DSSAT (Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer) the impact of climate change on maize yield (three soil types) was investigated until 2100. DSSAT crop growth model is used worldwide. The coupled model intercomparison project... A.J. Kovács, A. Nyéki, G. Milics, M. Neményi |
2. Intuitive Image Analysing on Plant Data - High Throughput Plant Analysis with Lemnatec Image ProcessingFor digital plant phenotyping huge amounts of 2D images are acquired. This is known as one part of the phenotyping bottleneck. This bottleneck can be addressed by well-educated plant analysts, huge experience and an adapted analysis software. Automated tools that only cover specific parts of this analysis pipeline are provided. During the last years this could be changed by the image processing toolbox of LemnaTec GmbH. An automated and intuitive tool for the automated analysis of huge amounts... S. Paulus, T. Dornbusch, M. Jansen |
3. Comparing Predictive Performance of Near Infrared Spectroscopy at a Field, Regional, National and Continental Scales by Using Spiking and Data Mining TechniquesThe development of accurate visible and near infrared (vis-NIR) spectroscopy calibration models for selected soil properties is a crucial step for variable rate application in precision agriculture. The objective of the present study was to compare the prediction performance of vis-NIR spectroscopy at local, regional, national and continental scales using data mining techniques including spiking. Fresh soil samples collected from farms in the UK, Czech Republic, Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands... S.M. Nawar, A.M. Mouazen, D. George, A. Manfield |
4. Prototype Unmanned Aerial Sprayer for Plant Protection in Agricultural and Horticultural CropsAerial application of pesticides has the potential to reduce the amount of pesticides required as chemicals are applied where needed. A prototype Unmanned Aerial Sprayer with a payload of 20 kg; a spraying rate of 6 liters per minute; a spraying swathe of 3 meters, coverage rate of 2 to 4 meters per second and 10 minutes of flight time was built using state of the art technologies. The project is a joint development by University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad, KLE Technological University,... S. Reddy, D.P. Biradar, V.C. Patil, B.L. Desai, V.B. Nargund, P. Patil, V. Desai, V. Tulasigeri, S.M. Channangi, W. John |
5. Developing an Integrated Approach for Estimation of Soil Available Nutrient Content Using the Modified WOFOST Model and Time-Series Multispectral UAV ObservationsSoil available nutrient (SAN) plays an important role in crop growth, yield formation, and plant-soil-atmosphere system exchange. Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) are recognized as three primary nutrients in crop production. Accurate and timely information on SAN conditions at key crop growth stages is important for developing beneficial management practices. While traditional field sampling can obtain reliable information for limited number of sites, it is infeasible for spatially... Z. Cheng, J. Meng, J. Shang, J. Liu, B. Qian, Q. Jing |
6. Precision Irrigation Management Through Conjunctive Use of Treated Wastewater and Groundwater in OmanAgriculture under arid environment is always become a challenge due to water scarcity and salinity problems. With average rainfall of 100 mm, agriculture in Oman is limited due to the arid climate and limited arable lands. More than 50 percent of the arable lands are located in the 300 km northern coastal belt of Al-Batinah region. In addition, country is facing severe problem of sea water intrusion into the groundwater aquifers due to undisciplined excessive groundwater (GW) abstraction... H. Jayasuriya, A. Al-busaidi, M.

8. UAV-based Hyperspectral Monitoring of Peach Trees As Affected by Silicon Applications and Water Stress StatusPrevious research has shown that the application of reduced doses of Silicon (Si) improves crop tolerance to water stress, which is common in commercial young peach trees because irrigation is not usually applied during their first two years. In this study, aerial images were used to monitor the impact of different Si and water treatments on the hyperspectral response of peach trees. An experiment with 60 young (under 1 year old) peach trees located at the Musser Fruit Research Center (Seneca,... J. Peña, J. Melgar, A. De castro, J. Maja, K. Nascimento-silva |
9. N-management Using Structural Data: UAV-derived Crop Height As an Estimator for Biomass, N Concentration, and N Uptake in Winter WheatIn the last 15 years, sensors mounted on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have been intensively investigated for crop monitoring. Besides known remote sensing approaches based on multispectral and hyperspectral sensors, photogrammetric methods became very important. Structure for Motion (SfM) and Multiview Stereopsis (MVS) analysis approaches enable the quantitative determination of absolute crop height and crop growth. Since the first paper on UAV-derived crop height was published by Bendig et... G. Bareth, A. Jenal, H. Hüging |
