1. Analysis Of Water Use Efficiency Using On-the-go Soil Sensing And A Wireless NetworkAn efficient irrigation system should meet the demands of the growing crops. While limited water supply may result in yield reduction, excess irrigation is a waste of resources. To investigate water use efficiency, on-the-go sensing technology was used to reveal soil spatial variability relevant to water holding capacity (in this example, field elevation and apparent electrical conductivity). These high-density data layers were used to identify strategic sites where monitoring water availability... L. Pan, V.I. Adamchuk, D.L. Martin, M.A. Schroeder, R.B. Fergugson |
2. Categorization of Districts Based on Nonexchangeable Potassium: Generation GIS Maps and Implications in Efficient K Fertility Management in Indian AgricultureRecommendations of K fertilizer are made based on available (exchangeable + water soluble) K status only in India and other despite of substantial contribution of nonexchangeable fraction of soil K to crop K uptake. Present paper examines the information generated in the last 30 years on the status of nonexchangeable K in Indian soils, categorization of Indian soils based on exchangeable and nonexchangeable K fractions and making K recommendations. Data for both K fractions of different... C. Srinivasa rao, K. Rao, H. Magen, B. Venkateswarlu, A. Subba rao |
3. Impact of Nitrogen (N) Fertilization on the Reflectance of Cotton Plants at Different Spatial ScalesThis study was conducted to examine the reflectance of cotton plants measured at three different spatial scales: individual leaf, canopy, and scene, in relation to N treatment effects, and consequently to select the best spatial scale(s) for estimating chlorophyll or N contents. At the leaf scale, N treatments effects were most apparent at 550... S. Maas, F. Muharam |
4. Response Of Rhodes Grass (Chloris Gayana Kunth) To Variable Rate Application Of Irrigation Water And Fertilizer NitrogenRhodes grass is cultivated extensively in Saudi Arabia under center pivot sprinkler irrigation system. The research work was carried out to optimize irrigation water and fertilizer nitrogen levels for the crop. The objectives of the study were: 1. To delineate the field in to management zones, 2. To study the effects of variable rate application (VRA) of irrigation water and fertilizer nitrogen on the yield of Rhodes grass. A field experiment was carried out from... V. Patil, R. Madugundu, E.

5. Feasibility of Estimating the Leaf Area Index of Maize Traits with Hemispherical Images Captured from Unmanned Aerial VehiclesFeeding a global population of 9.1 billion in 2050 will require food production to be increased by approximately 60%. In this context, plant breeders are demanding more effective and efficient field-based phenotyping methods to accelerate the development of more productive cultivars under contrasting environmental constraints. The leaf area index (LAI) is a dimensionless biophysical parameter of great interest to maize breeders since it is directly related to crop productivity. The LAI is defined... M. Perez-ruiz, E.

6. Cyberinfrastructure for Machine Learning Applications in Agriculture: Experiences, Analysis, and VisionAdvancements in machine learning algorithms and GPU computational speeds over the last decade have led to remarkable progress in the capabilities of machine learning. This progress has been so much that, in many domains, including agriculture, access to sufficiently diverse and high-quality datasets has become a limiting factor. While many agricultural use cases appear feasible with current compute resources and machine learning algorithms, the lack of software infrastructure for collecting,... L. Waltz, S. Khanal, S.
