1. Development Of A System For Site-specific Nematicide Placement In CottonNematode distribution varies significantly in cotton fields. Population density throughout a field is highly correlated to soil texture. Field-wide application of a uniform nematicide rate results in the chemical being applied to areas without nematodes or where nematode densities are below an economic threshold, or the application of sub-effective levels in areas with high nematode densities. The investigators have developed a “Site- Specific Nematicide Placement”... A. Khalilian, W. Henderson, J. Mueller, T. Kirkpatrick, S. Monfort, C. Overstreet |
2. Spatial Econometric Approaches to Develop Site-Specific Nematode Management Strategies in Cotton ProductionRoot-knot nematode infestations tend to be spatially clustered within agricultural... Z. Liu, T. Griffin, T. Kirkpatrick, S. Monfort |
3. NIRS Sensor Controlled Total-Mixed-Ration For Nutrient Optimized Feeding Of Dairy CattleThe exact regulation of dry matter, energy and ingredients in fodder rations provides a large advantage in order to optimize an economical animal nutrition. Feed mixer wagons are used to feed Gras and Maize silage together with other components. It can be used in combination with a transponder system for feed concentrate as well as for feeding of a total mixed ration. The online measurement system based on NIR-spectrometric sensors to measure DM-content and other nutrients should... P. Büscher, P. Twickler, D. Marquering, M. Müller, D. Maack |
4. Modifying the University of Missouri Corn Canopy Sensor Algorithm Using Soil and Weather InformationCorn production across the U.S. Corn belt can be often limited by the loss of nitrogen (N) due to leaching, volatilization and denitrification. The use of canopy sensors for making in-season N fertilizer applications has been proven effective in matching plant N requirements with periods of rapid N uptake (V7-V11), reducing the amount of N lost to these processes. However, N recommendation algorithms used in conjunction with canopy sensor measurements have not proven accurate in making N recommendations... G. Bean, N.R. Kitchen, D.W. Franzen, R.J. Miles, C.

5. Enhancing Nutrient-related Stress Detection: High Throughput Phenotyping and Image Analysis for Improved PrecisionIn the 21-century agriculture has the unique responsibility to provide food, fuel, fiber and feed for the growing population under the stress of climate change and diminishing natural resources. A feat that will take considerable change to the sustainability of such practices. One of which is the idea of assessing phenotypic expression of complex traits in response to environmental factors. This idea elevates the use of phenotyping to quantitatively monitor stress manifestation. Therefore,... K.J. Bathke, Y. Ge, S.D. Choudhury, J.D. Luck |
