1. Adoption Of N-application Rates In Different Broccoli Cultivars By Reflectance MeasurementsTo date many sensors have been solely developed and tested for arable crops. This project aims to develop the means to rapidly map N-demand in broccoli plants on a site-specific, plant-by-plant basis using reflectance measurements. The aim of this specific study was to monitor nitrogen status in six different broccoli cultivars using reflectance measurements and to derive suitable N-fertilization strategies based on the sensor measurements.A...

2. Cognitive Radio In Precision AgricultureThis is an attempt to design a precision agriculture (PA) model, to control the required parameters in greenhouse with wireless sensor network (WSN). This proto type model of wireless sensor and actuators network is designed as per required parameters of available crops in a greenhouse. The design of the sensor node consists of sensors, a micro-controller and a low-powered radio module. Real-time data, enable the operators to characterise the operating parameters of the greenhouse and also... S.P. Nayse, D.D. Choudhari, V.M. Wadhai |
3. Measuring Height of Sugarcane Plants Through LiDAR TechnologySugarcane (Saccharum spp.) has an important economic role in Brazilian agriculture, especially in São Paulo State. Variation in the volume of plants can be an indicative of biomass which, for sugarcane, strongly relates to the yield. Laser sensors, like LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), has been employed to estimate yield for corn, wheat and monitoring forests. The main advantage of using this type of sensor is the capability of real-time data acquisition in a non-destructive way, previously... T.F. Canata, J.P. Molin, A.F. Colaço, R.G. Trevisan, P.R.

4. Spatial Variability of Canopy Volume in a Commercial Citrus GroveLiDAR (light detection and ranging) sensors have shown good potential to estimate canopy volume and guide variable rate applications in different fruit crops. Oranges are a major crop in Brazil; however the spatial variability of geometrical parameters remains still unknown in large commercial groves, as well as the potential benefit of sensor guided variable rate applications. Thus, the objective of this work was to characterize the spatial variability of the canopy volume in a commercial orange... A.F. Colaço, J.P. Molin, R.G. Trevisan, J.R. Rosell-polo, A. Escolà |
