1. Isobus Demonstrator And Working Environment For Agricultural Engineering EducationISOBUS is the international standard for communication on agricultural equipment. In practice, however, a manufacturer independent tractor-implement communication is still a significant problem. This aspect has been identified as a major hindrance for the transfer of research results into products for precision farming. As a consequence the ISOBUS standard should strongly be included in education and research, which is the focus of this work. In... A. Ruckelshausen, T. Dzinaj, T. Kinder, D. Bosse, R. Klose |
2. Time Series Analysis of Somatic Cell Count from Dairy Herds in Minas Gerais - BrazilThe objective of this study was to analyze the temporal variation of somatic cell count (SCC) in milk of dairy cows from the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The Holstein Livestock Breeders Association of Minas Gerais provided data collected from 128 dairy farms located in the state of Minas Gerais between the years of 2000 and 2016. The database contains the SCC average of a total of 91,851 305-day lactations of Holstein animals. The annual SCC average was calculated as well as the percentage of... G.M. Dallago, D.

3. Ecological Refugia As a Precision Conservation Practice in Agricultural SystemsCurrent global agriculture fails to meet the basic food needs of 687.7 million people. At the same time, our food system is responsible for catastrophic losses of biodiversity. Precision conservation solutions offer the potential to benefit both production systems and natural systems. Transforming low-producing areas on farm fields into ecological refugia may provide small-scale habitat and ecosystem services in fragmented agricultural landscapes. We collaborated with three precision agriculture... H. Duff, B. Maxwell |
