1. Spatial Variability of Soil Properties in Intensively Managed Tropical Grassland in BrazilFor the intensification of tropical grass pastures systems the soil fertility building up by liming and balanced fertilization is necessary. The knowledge of spatial variability soil properties is useful in the rational use of inputs, as in the variable rate application of lime and fertilizers. PA requires methods to indicate the spatial variability of soil and plant parameters. The objective of this work was to map and evaluate the soil properties and maps the site specific liming and fertil... G.M. Bettiol, R.Y. Inamasu, L.M. Rabello, A.C. Bernardi, M. Campana, P.P.

2. Influence Of Phosphorus Application With Or Without Nitrogen On Oat (Avena Sativa) Grass Nutritive Value And In Situ Digestion Kinetics In Buffalo BullsFodder is the mainstay of ruminant production in majority of developing countries. However, its low yield and poor quality are considered considerable constrains which impede ruminant productivity. Fodder production and its nutritive value can be enhanced by ensuring adequate supply and utilization of nutrien... M.U. Nisa, I. Babar, M. Sarwar, N.A. Tauqir, M.A. Shahzad |
3. Remote Collection of Behavioral and Physiological Data to Detect Lame CowsAuthors of abstract: C. Kamphuis, J. Burke, J. Jago ... J. Jago, J. Burke, C. Kamphuis, B. Dela rue |
4. Two On-Farm Tests to Evaluate In-Line Sensors for Mastitis DetectionTo date, there is no independent and uniformly presented information available regarding detection performance of automated in-line mastitis detection systems. This lack of information makes it hard for farmers ... B. Dela rue, J. Jago, C. Kamphuis |
5. Field Evaluation of Automated Estrus Detection Systems - Meeting Farmers' ExpectationAutomated systems for oestrus detection are commonly marketed as a suitable, or in some cases, a higher performing alternative to visual observation. Farmers, particularly those with larger herds relying on less experienced staff, view the perceived benefits of automated systems as both economic and physical, with expectations of improved oestrus detection efficiency with lower labour input. There is little evidence-based information available on the field performance of these systems to... B.T. Dela rue, C. Kamphuis, J.G. Jago, C.R. Burke |
6. Challenges and Opportunities for Precision Dairy Farming in New Zealand.A study was commissioned by DairyNZ, a dairy industry good organisation in New Zealand, to identify some of the key challenges and opportunities in the precision dairy space. In New Zealand there has been an increasing research focus on the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) ... I. Yule , C. Eastwood |
7. The Use of Sensing Technologies to Monitor and Track the Behavior of Cows on a Commercial Dairy FarmNew Zealand farmers are facing rapidly increasing pressure to reduce nutrient losses from their farming enterprises to the environment caused by grazing ruminants. ...

8. Realising the Potential of Agricultural Robotics and AI: The Ethical ChallengesRecent advances in AI and robotics may dramatically transform agriculture by greatly expanding the number of contexts in which the techniques of precision agriculture may be applied. Inevitably, this next agricultural revolution will generate profound ethical issues: opportunities as well as risks. Clever applications of AI and robotics may allow agriculture to be more sustainable by facilitating more precise applications of water, fertilisers, and herbicides. Robots may take some of the drud... R. Sparrow |
9. Comparison of NDVI Values at Different Phenological Stages of Winter Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.)The main objective of this study is to monitor, detect and quantify the presence of live green vegetation with the MicaSense RedEdge-MX Dual Camera System (MS) mounted on a DJI Matrice 210 V2 and GreenSeeker HCS 250 (GS) in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) by using Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). Surveys were conducted in the North-Western part of Hungary, in Mosonmagyaróvár on six different dates. A small-scale field trial in winter wheat was constructed as a ... S. Zsebő, G. Kukorelli, V.

10. The Relationship Between Vegetation Indices Derived from UAV Imagery and Maturity Class in Potato Breeding TrialsIn potato breeding, maturity class (MC) is a crucial selection criterion because this is a critical aspect of commercial potato production. Currently, the classification of potato genotypes into MCs is done visually, which is time- and labor-consuming. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with sensors can acquire images with high spatial and temporal resolution. The objectives of this study were to 1) establish the relationship between vegetation indices (VIs) derived from UAV imagery at ... S.M. Samborski, U. Torres, R. Leszczyńska, A. Bech, M.

11. Spectral Response of Six Treatments of Soil Fertilization in Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) Var. Diacol Capiro with UASIn Colombia, potato cultivation occupies the third place among the transient crops in the country, covering approximately 160,000 hectares. It holds the first place in terms of production value, reaching US $500 million, and ranks as the second crop with the highest demand for fertilizers, constituting 20% of production costs. The departments of Cundinamarca, Boyacá, Nariño, and Antioquia are the primary potato producers, accounting for 87.8% of the total production. Traditional... S.A. Rubaino sosa, O.Y.

12. Vegetation Coverage Specific Flower Density Estimation in Blackberry Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Remote SensingThe effective management of agricultural systems relies on the utilization of accurate data collection techniques to analyze essential crop attributes to enhance productivity and ensure profits. Data collection procedures for specialty horticultural crops are mostly subjective, time consuming and may not be accurate for management decisions in both phenotypic studies and crop production. Reliable and repeatable standard methods are therefore needed to capture and calculate attributes of horti... A. Tagoe, C. Koparan, A. Poncet, D.M. Johnson, M. Worthington, D. Wang |
