1. Site-specific Phosphorus And Potassium Fertilization Of Alfalfa: Fertilizer Usage And Sampling Density ComparisonAlfalfa accounts for the largest cropping area in both the High Desert and Intermountain regions in California, and the use of site-specific management (SSM) can potentially improve farmers’ fertilization practices and crop nutritional status. These areas have limited to no studies regarding nutrient SSM, and variable rate (VR) fertilizer application has not been commonly used by farmers in either area. Considerable range of soil nutrient levels have... A. Biscaro, S. Orloff |
2. 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.

3. Developing Geospatial Method for Autopilot Harvester Trampling Evaluation in Colombian Sugarcane FieldsSugarcane is a crop of great importance for the geographical valley of the Cauca River in Colombia, where it covers approximately 241,000 hectares and is cultivated by 13 sugar mills and about 4,200 cultivators. This region is characterized by its favorable climate, which enables year-round sugarcane harvesting and its high productivity, making it a global leader in this sector. This achievement is largely attributed to the technological advances developed by Colombia Sugarcane Research Center... J.D. Ome narvaez, D.F. Sandoval, S.A. Galeano, H.B. Tarapues, A. Estrada, J.P.
