1. Recognition And Classification Of Weeds In Sugarcane Using The Technique Of The Bag Of WordsThe production of sugar and ethanol in Brazil is very prominent economically and the reducing costs and improving the production system being necessary. The management crops operations of sugarcane and the control of weed is one of the processes that cause the greatest increase in production costs; because the competition that exists between cane plants and weed, for water, nutrients and sunlight is big, contribute to the loss of up to 20% of the useful cane. The use of image processing techniques... W.E. Santiago, A.R. Barreto, D.G. Figueredo, R.C. Tinini, B.T. Mederos, N.J. Leite |
2. CropSAT - a Public Satellite-based Decision Support System for Variable-rate Nitrogen Fertilization in ScandinaviaCropSAT is a free-to-use web application for satellite-based production of variable-rate application (VRA) files of e.g. nitrogen (N) and fungicides currently available in Sweden and Denmark. Even in areas frequently covered by clouds, vegetation index maps from data derived from low-cost or freely available optical satellites can be used in practice as a cost-efficient tool in time-critical applications such as optimized nitrogen use. During the very cloudy year 2015, or more useable images... M. Söderström, H. Stadig, J. Martinsson, M. Stenberg, K. Piikki |
3. Correlating Plant Nitrogen Status in Cotton with UAV Based Multispectral ImageryCotton is an indeterminate crop; therefore, fertility management has a major impact on the growth pattern and subsequent yield. Remote sensing has become a promising method of assessing in-season cotton N status in recent years with the adoption of reliable low-cost unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), high-resolution sensors and availability of advanced image processing software into the precision agriculture field. This study was conducted on a UGA Tifton campus farm located in Tifton, GA. The main... W. Porter, D. Daughtry, G. Harris, R. Noland, J. Snider, S. Virk |
4. Map Whiteboard As Collaboration Tool for Smart Farming Advisory ServicesPrecision agriculture, a branch of smart farming, holds great promise for modernization of European agriculture both in terms of environmental sustainability and economic outlook. The vast data archives made available through Copernicus and related infrastructures, combined with a low entry threshold into the domain of AI-technologies has made it possible, if not outright easy, to make meaningful predictions that divides individual agricultural fields into zones where variable rates...

5. Exploring the Use of a Model-based Nitrogen Recommendation Tool and Vegetation Indices for In-season Corn Nitrogen Management in AlabamaEfficient nitrogen (N) management is critical for sustainable agriculture. Crop N needs and uptake changes within a field and it is annually influenced by weather conditions. Hence, site-specific in-season N application strategies are important to achieve optimum corn yield while minimizing negative impacts on the environment. This study evaluates the Adapt-N tool for in-season variable rate N application at two farmers’ fields in Alabama. The Adapt-N tool integrates soil and crop-based... P.R. Duarte, B.V. Ortiz, E.

6. Participatory Irrigation Extension Programs to Increasing Adoption of Best Irrigation StrategiesFarmers in Alabama, Tennessee, and other US southeastern states lack experience in irrigation water management and adoption of the state-of-the-art technologies and practices to increase irrigation water use efficiency. Several federal and state-funded projects are being implemented to demonstrate and train farmers and consultants on irrigation scheduling strategies and variable rate irritation. Half a dozen on-farm demonstration sites are selected every year to evaluate, demonstrate, and train... L. Nunes, E. Francisco, R. Prasad, B.V. Ortiz, E. Abban-baidoo , M. Worosz, M. Robinette , C.
