1. Penetration Resistance And Yield Variation At Field ScaleIn order to better explain spatial variations within fields, soil physical properties need to be studied in more depth. Relationships between soil physical parameters and yield, especially in the subsoil, are seldom studied since the characterization of soil variability at field or subfield scale using conventional methods is a labor intensive, very expensive, and time-consuming procedure, particularly when high-resolution data is required. However, soil physical properties... E. Bölenius, J. Arvidsson |
2. Zone Mapping Application for Precision-farming: a Decision Support Tool for Variable Rate ApplicationWe have developed a web-based decision support tool, Zone Mapping Application for Precision Farming (ZoneMAP, http://zonemap.umac.org), which can automatically determine the optimal number of management zones and delineate them using satellite imagery and field survey data provided by users. Application rates, say for fertilizer, can be prescribed for each zone and downloaded in a variety of formats to ensure compatibility with GPS-enabled farming applicators. ZoneMAP is linked to Digital Northern... X. Zhang, C. Helgason, G. Seielstad, L. Shi |
3. An IoT-based Smart Real Time Sensing and Control of Heavy Metals to Ensure Optimal Growth of Plants in an Aquaponic Set-upThe concentration of heavy metals that needs to be maintained in aquaponic environments for habitable growth of plants has been a cause of concern for many decades now as it is not possible to eliminate them completely in a commercial set-up. Our goal is to design a cost-effective real-time smart sensing and actuation system in order to control the concentration of heavy metals in aquaponic solutions. Our solution consists of sensing the nutrient concentrations in the aquaponic solution, namely... S. Dhal, J. Louis, N. O'sullivan, J. Gumero, M. Soetan, S. Kalafatis, J. Lusher, S. Mahanta |
4. Machine Learning Approach to Study the Effect of Weather and Proposed Climate Change Scenarios on Variability in the Ohio Corn and Soybean YieldClimate is one of the primary factors that affects agricultural production. Climate change and extreme weather events have raised concerns about its effect on crop yields. Climate change patterns affect the crop yield in many ways including the length of the growing season, planting and harvest time windows, precipitation amount and frequency, and the growing degree days. It is important to analyze the effect of climate change on yield variability for a better understanding of the effect... R. Dhillon, G. Takoo |
