1. Effect of Urea Application through Drip Irrigation on Yield, Water and Nitrogen Use Efficiency of Summer Bitter GourdBitter gourd (Momordica charantia L.) is one of the important vegetable crops grown during summer months in high lands of Lower Gangetic Plains. Crop is very much responsive to water and nutrient but water is limiting in dry summer months. Farmers generally adopt furrow irrigation and hand watering with pitcher for growing this crop. Drip irrigation is... S. Goswami, S. Saha |
2. Mapping the Leaf Area Index In Vineyard Using a Ground-Based LIDAR ScannerThe leaf area index (LAI) is defined as the one-sided leaf area per unit ground area and is probably the most widely used index to characterize grapevine vigour. However, direct LAI measurement requires the use of destructive leaves sampling methods which are costly and time-consuming and so are other indirect methods. Faced with these techniques, vineyard leaf area can be indirectly estimated using ground-based LIDAR sensors that scan the vines and get information about the geometry and/or structure... J. Arno, I.

3. Precision Fall Urea Fertilizer Applications: Timing Impact on Carbon Dioxide, Ammonia Volatilization and Nitrous Oxide EmissionsTo minimize ammonia (NH3) volatilization and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from fall applied fertilizer, it is generally recommended to not apply the fertilizer until the soil temperature decreases below 10 C. However, this recommendation is not based on detailed measurements of NH3and N2O emissions. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of fertilizer application timing on nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide, and ammonia volatilization emissions. Nitrogen fertilizer was... S.

4. In-season Diagnosis of Winter Wheat Nitrogen Status Based on Rapidscan Sensor Using Machine Learning Coupled with Weather DataNitrogen nutrient index (NNI) is widely used as a good indicator to evaluate the N status of crops in precision farming. However, interannual variation in weather may affect vegetation indices from sensors used to estimate NNI and reduce the accuracy of N diagnostic models. Machine learning has been applied to precision N management with unique advantages in various variables analysis and processing. The objective of this study is to improve the N status diagnostic model for winter wheat by combining... J. Lu, Z. Chen, Y. Miao, Y. Li, Y. Zhang, X. Zhao, M. Jia |
5. Effective Furrow Closing Systems for Consistent Corn Seed PlacementFarmers face a constant challenge when choosing the appropriate planter setup due to the variability of cropping systems under no-till. Effective performance of the planter's closing wheels can reduce errors from previous components that affect seedbed formation in the furrow. Effective seed-to-soil contact during planting is essential for optimal seed emergence and overall crop stand, with the closing wheels playing a pivotal role in this process. Producers have a range of closing wheels... J. Peiretti, B. Gigena, S. Badua, A. Sharda |
6. Predicting Soybean Yield Using Remote Sensing and a Machine Learning ModelSoybean (Glycine max L.), a nutrient-rich legume crop, is an important resource for both livestock feed and human dietary needs. Accurate preharvest yield prediction of soybeans can help optimize harvesting strategies, enhance profitability, and improve sustainability. Soybean yield estimation is inherently complex because yield is influenced by many factors including growth patterns, varying crop physiological traits, soil properties, within-field variability, and weather conditions. The objective... M. Gardezi, O. Walsh, D. Joshi, S. Kumari, D.E. Clay, J. Rathore |
7. Developing a Wheat Precision Nitrogen Management Strategy by Combining Satellite Remote Sensing Data and WheatGrow ModelPrecision nitrogen (N) management (PNM) is becoming increasingly popular due to its ability to synchronize crop N demand with soil N supply spatiotemporally. The previous evidence has demonstrated that variable rate fertilization contributes to achieving high yields and high efficiencies. However, PNM at the regional level remains unclear and challenging. This study aims to develop a novel management zone (MZ)-based PNM strategy (MZ-PNM) to optimize the basal and topdressing N rates at the regional... Y. Miao, X. Liu, Y. Tian, Y. Zhu, W. Cao, Q.
