1. Crop Rotation Impacts ‘Temporal Sampling’ Needed For Landscape-defined Management ZonesYield and landscape position are used to delineate management zones, but this approach is confounded by yield’s weather dependence, causing yield to evidence temporal variability/lack of yield stability. Management options (e.g. crop rotation) also influence yield stability. Our objective was to build a model that would describe the influence of crop rotation on the temporal yield stability of landscape defined management zones. Corn (Zea mays L.) yield data for two rotations,... E.M. Pena-yewtukhiw, J. Grove |
2. C And N Coupling Through Time: Soil C, N, And Grain Yield In A Long-term Continuous Corn TrialGains and losses of both C and N are important in agricultural landscapes. Temporal changes in the pattern of crop yield response to tillage and fertilizer input are commonly observed; often weakly interpreted, in long-term research. A 38-year-long monoculture corn (Zea mays L.) tillage (moldboard plow, no-tillage) by N rate (0, 84, 168, 336 kg N per hectare) trial was sampled to a depth of 100 cm, as was the surrounding... J.

3. Performance Evaluation of STICS Crop Model to Simulate Corn Growth Attributes in Response to N Rate and Climate VariationsImproving nitrogen use efficiency in crop plants contributes to increase the sustainability of agriculture. Crop models could be used as a tool to test the impact of climatic conditions on crop growth under several N management practices and to refine N application recommendation and strategy. STICS, a crop growth simulator developed by INRA (France), has the capability to assimilate leaf area index (LAI) from remote sensing to re-initialize input parameters, such as seeding date and seeding...

4. Research On Measurement Device For NO3- Ion Concentration Of Nutrient SolutionThe management of water and ion concentration in nutrient solution is crucial in precision agriculture. Poor management may leads to the increasing of energy consumption and cost as well as low efficiency. The measurement of ion concentration in nutrient solution is prerequisite for optimal control and management of nutrient solution. Real-time detection of NO3-, as an important component of nitrogenous fertilizer, is always a big problem over the world. The... X. Zhang, Y. Li, K. Xu, X. Sun |
