1. Precision Agriculture In New Zealand’s Farming SystemsTo date New Zealand farmers do not realize how involved they are in Precision Agriculture (PA). As arable farmers we know how many kilograms of nitrogen (N) it takes to grow a tonne of wheat, how many kilograms of seed we can produce for every millimetre of water that is applied (through irrigation and/or rainfall) and yet we don’t believe we are involved in PA. As dairy farmers we are matching feed requirements to the specific production level of individual cows. We are... C. Mackenzie, C. Mackenzie |
2. Estimation of Leaf Nitrogen Concentration in Barley with In Situ Hyperspectral MeasurementsLeaf nitrogen concentration (LNC), a good indicator of nitrogen status in crop, is of special significance to diagnose nutrient stress and guide nitrogen fertilization in fields. Due to its non-destructive and quick advantages, hyperspectral remote sensing plays a unique role... J.M. Wang, C.M. Li, X.M. Yang, W.M. Huang, H.M. Yang, X.M. Xu |

4. Sustainable Use Of Irrigation WaterThe water footprint of irrigation systems can be reduced significantly by combining data from Electromagnetic (EM) soil survey with variable rate technology on irrigators. Variable Rate Irrigation (VRI) is providing annual irrigation water savings of between 25 -50% on farms throughout NZ. Flow-on benefits include reduced pumping costs, improved crop yields and soil health along with reduced nutrients leaching to groundwater. The... C. Mackenzie |
5. A Study On Diagnostic System Based On ISOAgLIB For Agricultural VehiclesNowadays the growth of the embedded electronics and communications has demanded the development of applications in agricultural machinery in Korean agroindustry. The root reason is that most of agricultural machineries produced in Korea does not apply international standard. Therefore, the incompatibility problem between hardware, software and data formats has become a major obstacle for exporting agricultural products made by Korea to the world. In... J. Moon, S.
