1. Guiding Spot Sprayer Decisions: Toward Species-Selective Weed ControlSite-specific weed management is a key approach in precision crop protection, enabling spatially targeted herbicide application based on within-field variability in weed distribution. However, most operational spot-spraying systems rely on uniform nozzle activation rules, implicitly treating all detected weeds equally despite differences in competitive ability and ecological function. This limits the potential of precision systems to exploit species-level differentiation in practice. This... M. Gentili, M.S. Madsen, V.A. Nichols, R.N. Jørgensen, J.R. Jørgensen, |
2. Evaluation of DC-based Equipment for Apparent Soil Electrical Conductivity MeasurementApparent soil electrical conductivity (ECa) is a soil parameter used for precision agriculture applications where knowledge of the spatial variability of soil attributes is an important aspect to know. Researchers have concluded that ECa is powerful for spatial heterogeneity characterization of several physicochemical properties, identifying edaphic and anthropogenic factors that may influence crop yield, and provides a viable approach for delineating areas that behave similarly with respect...

3. As-applied Maps of Planter Performance During Corn Planting – How the Numbers Looks Like After Plant EmergenceHigh-quality planting operations are important for high yield crops. Poor distribution compromises emergence and plant development, thus affecting crop productivity. Therefore, uniformity of seed distribution in the soil, with adequate depth and spacing, is essential for high yield. Moreover, embedded electronics on modern planters allow data collection from sensors that provide information regarding planter performance such as measurements of seed spacing quality (doubles, skips, singularity...
