1. Spatial Mapping Of Penetrometer Resistance On Turfgrass Soils For Site-specific CultivationSite-specific management requires site-specific information. Soil compaction at field capacity is a major stress on recreational turfgrass sites that requires frequent cultivation. Spatial mapping of penetrometer... K. Rice, T. Carson, J. Krum, I.

2. Precision Fertigation in Wheat for Sustainable Agriculture in Saudi ArabiaWheat is an important cereal crop of Saudi Arabia grown on an area of 250,000 ha with an annual production of 1,260,000 metric tons. The crop is cultivated on sandy soils using sprinkler irrigation under center pivots. The crop is sown in November... V.C. Patil, K.A. Al-gaadi |
3. Temperature Effect on Wild Blueberry Fruit Quality During Mechanical HarvestMechanical harvesters, utilizing a range of technologies, have been developed for timely operations and remain the most cost-effective means of picking the wild blueberry crop. Approximately 95% of wild blueberries in Atlantic Canada are immediately frozen and processed, while only a small percentage is sold in the fresh market. However, the producers can benefit by increasing the value of their harvested crop through fresh market sales. The objective of this study was to determine the optimum... T.J. Esau, A.A. Farooque, F.

4. Establishing the First Soil Water Characteristics Curve for the Soils of Prince Edward Island, CanadaSoil water characteristics curve (SWCC), for Prince Edward Island (PEI), is much more needed currently for the sustainable production of agriculture yields. It will not only fulfil the requirements of the province’s farmers for irrigation scheduling but also help the government to decide about permitting the use of groundwater for supplemental irrigation on the island. A soil water characteristics curve in PEI does not exist to support precision agriculture practices. Precision irrigation... S.J. Cheema, A.A. Farooque, F. Abbas, T. Esau, K. Grewal |
5. Suitability of ML Algorithms to Predict Wild Blueberry Harvesting LossesThe production of wild blueberries (Vaccinium angustifolium.) is contributing 112.2 million dollars to the Canada’s revenue which can be further increased through controlling harvest losses. A precise prediction of blueberry harvesting losses is necessary to mitigate such losses. In this study, the performance of three machine learning (ML) models was evaluated to predict the wild blueberry harvest losses on the ground. The data from four commercial fields in Atlantic Canada were... H. Khan, T. Esau, A. Farooque, F. Abbas |
