1. Comparison Of Different Vegetation Indices And Their Suitability To Describe N-uptake In Winter Wheat For Precision FarmingTo avoid environment pollution and to minimize the costs of using mineral fertilizers an efficient fertilization system, tailored to the plant needs becomes more and more important. For that, the essential information can be determined by detecting certain crop parameters, like dry matter of the plant biomass above ground, N-content and N-uptake. By using fluorescence and reflectance measurements of the canopy and the mathematical analysis these parameters are appreciable. In three years,... M. Strenner, F. Maidl |
2. Estimation of Nitrogen of Rice in Different Growth Stages Using Tetracam Agriculture Digital CameraMany methods are available to monitor nitrogen content of rice during various growth stages. However, this monitoring still requires a quick, simple, accurate and inexpensive technique that needs to be developed. In this study, Tetracam Agriculture Digital Camera (ADC) was used to acquire high spatial and temporal resolution in order to determine the status of nitrogen (N) and predict the grain yield of rice (Oriza sativa L.). In this study, 12 pots of rice with four different N treatments (0, 125,... A. Gholizadeh , M. Mohd soom , M. Saberioon |
3. Potential of Visible and Near Infrared Spectroscopy for Prediction of Paddy Soil Physical PropertiesA fast and convenient soil analytical technique is needed for soil quality assessment and precision soil management. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of Visible (Vis) and Near-infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIRS) to predict paddy soil physical properties in a typical Malaysian paddy field. To assess the utility of spectroscopy for soil physical characteristics prediction, we used 118 soil samples for laboratory analysis and optical measurement in the Vis-NIR region... A. Gholizadeh, M.

4. Enhancing Farmers' Indigenous Knowledge Management in Cassava Varietal Trial Using Agro Ecosystem Analysis, Farmers' Drama Group and Animations in Eastern part of Nigeria.Researchers continue to come up with new varieties but farmer perspectives and preferences are very important factors for new varieties to spread in farmers’ communities. Researcher priorities alone are not enough. A variety may be ‘scientifically perfect... C.C. Asiabaka, M.O. Adesope, C.C. Ifeanyi- obi, R.N. Nwakwasi, F. Nnadi, E.C. Matthews- njoku, J. Chikaire |
5. Soil Organic Carbon Multivariate Predictions Based on Diffuse Spectral Reflectance: Impact of Soil MoistureSpatial predictions of soil organic carbon (OC) developed with proximal and remotely sensed diffuse reflectance spectra are complicated by field soil moisture variation. Our objective was to determine how moisture impacted spectral reflectance and Walkley-Black OC predictions. Soil reflectance from the North American Proficiency Testing... T. Mueller, C. Matocha, F.

6. Mapping Spatial Production Stability in Integrated Crop and Pasture Systems: Towards Zonal Management That Accounts for Both Yield and Livestock-landscape Interactions.Precision farming technologies are now widely applied within Australian cropping systems. However, the use of spatial monitoring technologies to investigate livestock and pasture interactions in mixed farming systems remains largely unexplored. Spatio-temporal patterns of grain yield and pasture biomass production were monitored over a four-year period on two Australian mixed farms, one in the south-west of Western Australia and the other in south-east Australia. A production stability index was... P. Mcentee, S. Bennett, M. Trotter, R. Belford, J. Harper |
7. Corn Nitrogen Fertilizer Recommendation Models Based on Soil Hydrologic Groups Aid in Predicting Economically Optimal Nitrogen RatesNitrogen (N) fertilizer recommendations that match corn (Zea mays L.) N needs maximize grower profits and minimize water quality consequences. However, spatial and temporal variability makes determining future N requirements difficult. Studies have shown no single soil or weather measurement is consistently increases accuracy, especially when applied over a regional scale, in predicting economically optimal N rate (EONR). Basing site N response on soil hydrological group could help account for... G.M. Bean, N.R. Kitchen, J.J. Camberato, R.B. Ferguson, F.G. Fernandez, D.W. Franzen, C.A. Laboski, E.D. Nafziger, J.E. Sawyer, P.C. Scharf |
8. Feasibility of Estimating the Leaf Area Index of Maize Traits with Hemispherical Images Captured from Unmanned Aerial VehiclesFeeding a global population of 9.1 billion in 2050 will require food production to be increased by approximately 60%. In this context, plant breeders are demanding more effective and efficient field-based phenotyping methods to accelerate the development of more productive cultivars under contrasting environmental constraints. The leaf area index (LAI) is a dimensionless biophysical parameter of great interest to maize breeders since it is directly related to crop productivity. The LAI is defined... M. Perez-ruiz, E.

9. Comparison of the Performance of Two Vis-NIR Spectrometers in the Prediction of Various Soil PropertiesSpectroscopy has shown capabilities of predicting certain soil properties. Hence, it is a promising avenue to complement traditional wet chemistry analysis that is costly and time-consuming. This study focuses on the comparison of two Vis-NIR instruments of different resolution to assess the effect of the resolution on the ability of an instrument to predict various soil properties. In this study, 798 air dried and compressed soil samples representing different agro-climatic conditions across... M. Marmette, V. Adamchuk, J. Nault, S. Tabatabai, R. Cocciardi |
10. Developing a Machine Learning and Proximal Sensing-based In-season Site-specific Nitrogen Management Strategy for Corn in the US MidwestEffective in-season site-specific nitrogen (N) management strategies are urgently needed to ensure both food security and sustainable agricultural development. Different active canopy sensor-based precision N management strategies have been developed and evaluated in different parts of the world. Recent studies evaluating several sensor-based N recommendation algorithms across the US Midwest indicated that these locally developed algorithms generally did not perform well when used broadly across...

11. Using Informative Bayesian Priors and On-farm Experimentation to Predict Optimal Site-specific Nitrogen RatesMost U.S. Corn Belt states now recommend the Maximum Return to Nitrogen (MRTN) method for determining optimal nitrogen rates, which is based on 15 years of on-farm yield response to nitrogen trials. The MRTN method recommends a uniform rate for a region of a state. This study combines Illinois MRTN data, Bayesian methods, and on-farm experimentation from the Data Intensive Farm Management (DIFM) project to provide site-specific nitrogen recommendations. On-farm trials are now being used to provide... W. Brorsen, D. Poursina, C. Patterson, T. Mieno, B. Edge, E.D. Nafziger |
12. Using Machine Vision to Build Field Maps of Forage Quality and the Need for Agriculture-specific Machine Vision NetworksMachine vision systems have truly come of age over the past decade. These networks are relatively simple to implement with systems such as YOLOv5 or the more recent YOLOv8. They are also relatively easy and computationally cheap to retrain to a custom data set, allowing for customization of these networks to new object detection and classification tasks. With this ease, it is no surprise that we are seeing an explosion of these networks and their application through all aspects of agriculture.... P. Nugent, J. Neupane |
