1. Revising Nitrogen Recommendations For Wheat In Response To The Need For Support Of Variable-rate Nitrogen ApplicationSampling studies in North Dakota conducted from 1994 to 2003 showed that variable-rate N application could be practically directed with zone soil sampling. Results from variable-rate N studies using zone soil sampling were often less than rewarding due in part to the use of a whole-field predicted yield-based formula for developing the N recommendation in each zone. Nitrogen rate studies on spring wheat and durum were established in 2005 through 2009 to reexamine N recommendations. The results... D. Franzen, G. Endres, R. Ashley, J. Staricka, J. Lukach, K.

2. Using Electronic Technology to Remotely Monitor Conditions, Transfer the Data, and Display Data Real-time on the InternetThis session describes the use of electronic equipment to monitor soil temperature and moisture, air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, solar radiation, leaf wetness, and rainfall. Presenter will explain how to use the equipment to monitor conditions, transfer the data, and display the information in real-time on the Internet.... R. Ashley, J. Nowatzki |
3. Active Optical Sensor Algorithms For Corn Yield Prediction And In-Season N Application In North DakotaA recent series of seventy seven field N rate experiments with corn (Zea mays, L.) in North Dakota was conducted. Multiple regression analysis of the characteristics of the data set indicated that segregating the data into those with high clay soils and those with medium textures increased the relationship between N rate and corn yield. However, the nearly linear positive slope relationship in high clay soils and coarser texture soils with lower yield productivity indicated... L. Sharma, H. Bu, R. Ashley, G. Endres, J. Teboh, D.W. Franzen |
4. Application of Geographic Information Systems in Socioeconomic Analysis: A Case of Integrated Soil Fertility Management in the Savannas of NigeriaPopulation pressure increases, shortened fallow cycles, cropping intensification, inaccessibility and low output prices as well as concerns about agricultural sustainability and self-sufficiency have combined to contribute to increased demand for integrated soil fertility management of the agricultural resource base. Following this situation, organic fertilizer in the form of animal manure becomes one of the principal sources of nutrients for soil fertility maintenance and crop production. Hence,... O.

5. The Profitability of Variable Rate Lime in WheatGrid sampling allows a variable rate of lime to be applied and has been marketed as a cost saver to producers. However, there is little research that shows if this precision application is profitable or not. Previous research on variable-rate lime has considered only a small number of fields. This paper uses soil sampling data from 170 fields provided by producers in Oklahoma and Kansas. We compare net returns of variable rate to uniform rate lime for grain only wheat production, dual-purpose... B. Mills, B. Brorsen, D. Arnall |
6. Precision Agriculture: A Paradigm Shift for Espousal of Advanced Farming Practices Among Progressive Farmers in Punjab –PakistanPrecision agriculture provides innovative farm information tools for improved decision making regarding crop growth and yield. Creating awareness for future applications of precision agriculture among progressive farmers in Pakistan was an instrumental force to conduct this study. The purpose was to appraise the awareness level of the respondents for applications of precision agriculture in the field. The objectives such as assessing the awareness level, available information sources, future needs,... E. Ashraf, H.K. Shurjeel, R. Rasheed |
7. Developing Empirical Method to Estimate Phosphorous in Potato Plants Using Spectroscopy-based ApproachApplication of non-destructive sensors opens a promising opportunity to provide efficient information on nutrient contents based on leaf or canopy reflectance in different crops. In potatoes, nutrient levels are estimated by conducting chemical tests for the petioles. In thinking of deploying sensors for potato nutrient estimation, it is necessary to study the spectrum based on petiole chemical testing rather than leaf chemical testing. Thus, this study aimed to investigate whether there is a... R. Abukmeil, A. Almallahi |
8. Enabling Field-level Connectivity in Rural Digital Agriculture with Cloud-based LoRaWANThe widespread adoption of next-generation digital agriculture technologies in rural areas faces a critical challenge in the form of inadequate field-level connectivity. Traditional approaches to connecting people fall short in providing cost-effective solutions for many remote agricultural locations, exacerbating the digital divide. Current cellular networks, including 5G with millimeter wave technology, are urban-centric and struggle to meet the evolving digital agricultural needs, presenting... Y. Zhang, J. Bailey, A.

9. Simultaneously Estimating Crop Biomass and Nutrient Parameters Using UAS Remote Sensing and Multitask LearningRapid and accurate estimation of crop growth status and nutrient levels such as aboveground biomass, nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium concentrations and uptake is critical with respect to precision agriculture and field-based crop monitoring. Recent developments in Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) and sensor technologies have enabled the collection of high spatial, spectral, and temporal remote sensing data over large areas at a lower cost. Coupled deep learning-based modeling approaches with... P. Kovacs, M. Maimaitijiang, B. Millett, L. Dorissant, I. Acharya, U.U. Janjua, K. Dilmurat |
