1. Estimation of Rice Yield from MODIS Data in West Java, IndonesiaChiharu Hongo1*, Takaaki Furukawa1, Gunardi Sigit2, Masayasu Maki3, Koki Honma3,... C. Hongo, T. Furukawa, G. Sigit, M. Maki, K. Honma, K. Yoshida, K. Oki, H. Shirakawa |
2. Allelopathic Effects of Sunflower (Helianthus Annuus) on Germination and Growth of Wild Barley (Hordeum Spontaneum)Sunflower [Helianthus annuus (L.) Koch.] contains watersoluble allelochemicals that inhibit the ermination and growth of other species. This characteristic could be used in weed management programmes. Greenhouse and laboratory experiments were conducted to determine the effects on wild barley (Hordeum spontaneum Koch.) germination and seedling growth of(i) preceding crops, (ii) fresh sunflower residue incorporation, and (iii) sunflower leaf, stem, flower and root water extract concentrations....

3. Effect of Soil Solarization, a Nonchemical Method, on the Control of Egyptian Boomrape (Orobanche Aegyptiaca) and Yield Improvement in Greenhouse Grown CucumberCucumber cultivation in the Mediterranean region is susceptible to infestation by the parasitic weed egyptian broomrape (Orobanche aegyptiaca), and severe yield losses can result. The effectiveness of solarization, a soil disinfection technique that uses passive solar heating, to control the incidence of broomrape under greenhouse conditions was studied over two growing seasons. Solarization was accomplished by the application of clear polyethylene sheets to moist soil for 50 to 65 d... Z.Y. Ashrafi, H.M. Alizadeh, S. Sadeghi |
4. Utilizing GPS Technology and Science to Improve Digital Literacy Among Students in Australia and the United States of AmericaA key issue facing regional, rural and remote communities, in both Australia and the United States of America (USA), is the low level of digital literacy among some cohorts of students. This is particularly the case for students involved in agricultural studies where it is commonly perceived that digital literacy is not relevant to their future occupation. However, this perception is far from the truth, as the reality of farming today means students who intend on entering the agricultural workforce... C.W. Knight, A. Cosby, M. Trotter |
5. Practical Prescription of Variable Rate Fertilization Maps Using Remote Sensing Based Yield PotentialThis paper describes a practical approach for the prescription of variable rate fertilization maps using remote sensing data (RS) based on satellite platforms, Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2 constellation. The methodology has been developed and evaluated in Albacete, Spain, in the framework of the project FATIMA (http://fatima-h2020.eu/). The global approach considers the prescription of N management prior to the growing season, based on a spatially distributed N balance. Although the diagnosis of N... A. Osann, I. Campos, M.

6. Economic Potential of IPMwise – a Generic Decision Support System for Integrated Weed Management in 4 CountriesReducing use and dependency on pesticides in Denmark has been driven by political action plans since the 1980ies, and a series of nationally funded accompanying R&D programs were completed in the period 1989-2006. One result of these programs was a decision support system (DSS) for integrated weed management. The 4th generation (2016) of the agro-biological models and IT-tools in this DSS, named IPMwise. The concept of IPMwise is to systematically exploit that: occurrence... P. Rydahl, O. Boejer, K. Torresen, J.M. Montull, A. Taberner, H. Bückmann, A. Verschwele |
