1. Smoothness Index Of Thematic MapsA thematic map shows the spatial distribution of one or more specific data themes for standard geographic areas. The thematic maps are generated to represent the studied variables, so interpolators are used to determine their values in places not sampled. It is usually... C.L. Bazzi, E.G. Souza, D. Stiehl |
2. Thematic And Profitability Maps For Precision AgricultureYield maps became economically feasible to farmers with the technological advances in precision agriculture. The evidence of its profitability, however, is still unknown and, rarely, yield variability has been correlated to profitable variability. Differently from... E.G. Souza, C.L. Bazzi, M.A. Uribe-opazo |
3. Worldwide Adoption Of Precision Agriculture Technology: The 2010 UpdatePrecision agriculture technology has been on the market for nearly two decades; and the question remains regarding how and to what extent farmers are making the best use of the technology. Yield monitors, GPS-enabled guidance technology, farm-level mapping and GIS software, on-the-go variable rate applications, and other spatial technologies are being used by thousands of farmers worldwide. The USDA Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS) and the annual CropLife/Purdue University Precision... T. Griffin, J. Lowenberg-deboer |
4. Using Crop Budgeting Spreadsheets Can Assist Producers In Evaluating The Cost Effectiveness Of Adoption Of The Various Precision Agriculture TechnologiesProducers asked the question which Precision Agriculture Technologies can be economical in my farming operation? The use of easily modified crop budgets can help the producer evaluate the technologies and how they affect the profitability of one’s agricultural enterprise.... R.N. Klein, R. Wilson |
5. A Statistical and an Agronomic Approach for Definition of Management Zones in Corn and SoybeanThe use of productivity level management zones (MZ) has demonstrated good potential for the site-specific management of crop inputs in traditional row crops. The objectives of this research were to analyze the process of defining MZs and develop methods to evaluate the quality of MZ maps. Two approaches were used to select the layers to be used in the MZ definition: 1) Statistical Approach (SA_MZ) and 2) Agronomic Approach (AA_MZ). The difference is that in the AA_MZ approach all non stable variables... C.L. Bazzi, E.G. Souza, R. Khosla, R.M. Reich |
6. Use of Chemical and Physical Attributes Of the Soil in Management Units DefinitionSeveral equipments and methodologies have been developed to make available precision agriculture, especially the high cost of its implantation and sampling. An interesting possibility... C.L. Bazzi, E.G. Souza, L.H. Nobrega, M.A. Uribe-opazo, D.M. Rocha |
7. Can Active Sensor Based NDVI Consistently Classify Wheat Genotypes?ABSTRACT ... M.A. Naser, R. khosla, S. Haley, R. Reich, L. Longchamps, M. Moragues, G.W. buchleiter, G.S. Mcmaster |
8. Variation in Nitrogen Use Efficiency for Multiple Wheat Genotypes across Dryland and Irrigated Cropping SystemsABSTRACT ... M.A. Naser, R. Khosla, R. Reich, S. Haley, L. longchamps, M. Moragues, G.W. buchleiter, G.S. Mcmaster |
9. I-SALUS: New Web Based Spatial Systems for Simulating Crop Yield and Environmental ImpactSALUS (System Approach to Land Use Sustainability) model is designed to simulate the impact of agronomic management on yield and environmental impact. SALUS model has new approaches and algorithms for simulating soil carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous, tillage, soil water balance and yield components. In the past, the use of the crop model was not easy for general... T. Chou, M. Yeh, J. Chen, B. Basso |
10. Seeding and Planting Plots for Crop Performance Evaluation Using Gps-rtk Auto SteeringCrop performance evaluation plots are seeded both on and off the University of Nebraska West Central Research and Extension Center. Plots off the Center must match the producer’s rows for pesticide application, cultivation, ditching, irrigation, fertilization and any other operations performed in the fields. With row crops the producer blank-plants the plot area before we can follow up with planting the plots. This means that we have to wait for the producer to plant in the field. Blank-planting... R.N.

11. Tracking Two Decades of Precision Agriculture Through the Croplife Purdue SurveyThe CropLife/Purdue University precision dealer survey is the longest-running continuous survey of precision farming adoption. The 2017 survey is the 18th, conducted every year from 1997 to 2009, and then every other year following. For individuals working in agriculture there is great value in knowing who is doing what and why, to get a better understanding of the utilities and applications, and to guide investments. A major revision in survey questions was made... B. Erickson, J. Lowenberg-deboer, J. Bradford |
