1. Near-Real-Time Remote Sensing And Yield Monitoring Of Biomass CropsThe demand for bioenergy crops production has increased tremendously by the biofuel industry for substitution of traditional fuels due to the economic availability and environmental benefits. Pre-Harvest monitoring of biomass production is necessary to develop optimized instrumentation and data processing systems for crop growth, health and stress monitoring; and to develop algorithms for field operation scheduling. To cope with the problems of missing critical... Y. Zhao, L. Li, K.C. Ting, L.F. Tian, T. Ahamed |
2. Verify The Effectiveness Of UAS-Mounted Sensors In Field Crop And Livestock Production Management IssuesThis research project is a “proof-of-concept” demonstrating specific UAS applications in production agriculture. Project personnel will use UAS-mounted sensors to collect data of ongoing crop and livestock research projects during the 2014 crop season at the North Dakota State University (NDSU) Carrington Research Extension Center (CREC). Project personnel will collaborate with NDSU research scientists conducting research at the CREC. During the first year of the project... S. Bajwa, J. Nowatzki, W. Harnisch, B. Schatz, V. Anderson |
3. Field-Based High-Throughput Phenotyping Approach For Soybean Plant ImprovementThe continued development of new, high yielding cultivars needed to meet the world’s growing food demands will be aided by improving the technology to rapidly phenotype potential cultivars. High-throughput phenotyping (HTP) is essential to maximize the greatest value of genetics analysis and to better understand the plant biology and physiology in view of a “Feed the World in 2050” theme. Field-based high-throughput phenotyping platform... L. Li, D. Jiang, R.P. Campos, Z. Lu, L.F. Tian |
4. Optimizing Experimental Design for Determining Economic Nitrogen Levels: Insights on the Use of Monte Carlo SimulationsThe determination of economic nitrogen levels is a pivotal element in the quest for sustainable agricultural practices. Designing experiments to accurately identify these levels, especially in contexts constrained by limited plot availability, poses a significant challenge. In response to these challenges, this study endeavors to demonstrate an approach to optimize the experimental design for identifying economic nitrogen levels, even under such constraints. We employed statistical... C. Matavel, A. Meyer-aurich, H. Piepho |
5. Evaluating Response-Based Management Units for Variable-Rate Nitrogen Application Using On-Farm ExperimentsSite-specific nitrogen (N) management in precision agriculture is commonly based on management zones derived from soil properties and vegetation indices, implicitly assuming that spatial patterns in yield potential correspond to spatial patterns in crop response to N. However, yield level and marginal yield response to N represent distinct agronomic characteristics and may not coincide. This study evaluates whether conventional potential-based zones adequately capture spatial variability in N... C. Matavel, A. Meyer-aurich |
