3. An Approach to Selection of Soil Water Content Monitoring Locations within Fields

Increased input efficiency is one of the main challenges for a modern agricultural enterprise. One way to optimize production cycles is to rationalize crop residue utilization. In conditions where there is limited use of mineral fertilizers and without applying manure, plant residues may be used as an organic fertilizer ... V.I. Adamchuk, L. Pan, R.B. Ferguson

4. The Use of Crop Sensors Beyond Nitrogen and Improving the Right to Farm

... C. Mackenzie

5. John Deere FarmSight™

Agriculture has had several revolutions in the past century, and it currently faces what may be its greatest challenge to date – population growth and the increased need for food, fiber, and fuel in the future.  To meet this challenge the agricultural industry will have to drive efficiencies to a level never seen before, within a context of several macro trends (e.g., farm sizes increasing, environmental sustainability requirements evolving).  John Deere FarmSightTM...

9. Precision Agriculture and Springer

Maryse Walsh will be presenting Precision Agriculture, the Springer journal, but also the discipline and its place in the Springer publications overall. The community attending the ICPA has a major role in ensuring the positive development of these publications and the affiliation of the journal to the ISPA will only help. ... M. Walsh

10. Raising Awareness of the Potential of Crop Sensing Technologies to Improve Environmental Stewardship

Extensive research and on-farm work using active crop sensors for input management have been conducted in the Midwest and Great Plain USA with favorable results. Contrasting is the situation in the Southeast where the adoption by farmers is still limited and current on-going research is focused on the main southeastern crops. This presentation will provide an overview of the multiple extension activities related to crop sensing involving farmers, extension agents and crop consultants in ... B. Ortiz

13. Sensor Algorithms 101

This presentation will break down the algorithms used for Optical Sensor Based Nitrogen rate recommendations. The group will walk through the mechanics and agronomics behind the most commonly used equations, in order to turn the black boxes into slightly muddied waters. ... B. Arnall

14. Use of Zone or Grid Soil Nutrient Management as Part of an Integrated Site-specific Nutrient Strategy

Zone and grid sampling are used as a basis for fertilizing with nutrients site-specifically. Use of sensors to assist in-season management of nitrogen is also gaining momentum. The presentation will suggest when grid or zone sampling for preplant nutrients might be utilized and how these recommendations would be used in an integrated approach of preplant plus in-season nutrient management. ...

15. Spatial Variability Of Soil Properties And Yield Of An Alfalfa Pasture Under Grazing In Brazil

Alfalfa is extremely demanding in fertility, and an adequate supply of nutrients is important for forage production and is essential to maintain high forage quality and profitable yields. Tropical acid soils are naturally poor in plant nutrients, therefore, soil liming and balanced nutrient supply essential to ensure high yields and high alfalfa forage quality. The knowledge of soil properties spatial variability and forage yield is useful for the rational use of inputs, as in the variab... A. Bernardi

16. NIRS Sensor Controlled Total-Mixed-Ration For Nutrient Optimized Feeding Of Dairy Cattle

The exact regulation of dry matter, energy and ingredients in fodder rations provides a large advantage in order to optimize an economical animal nutrition. Feed mixer wagons are used to feed Gras and Maize silage together with other components. It can be used in combination with a transponder system for feed concentrate as well as for feeding of a total mixed ration. The online measurement system based on NIR-spectrometric sensors to measure DM-content and other nutrients shoul... P. Büscher, P. Twickler, D. Marquering, M. Müller, D. Maack

17. The Performance Of Mobile Devices' Inertial Measurement Unit For The Detection Of Cattle's Behaviors On Pasture

Over the past decade, the Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) concept has taken a considerable place in the development of accurate methods for a better management of farm animals. The recent technological improvements allow the raising of numerous motion sensors such as accelerometers and GPS tracking. Several studies have shown the relevancy of these sensors to distinguish the animals’ behavior using various classification techniques such as neuronal networks or ... A. Andriamandroso, B. Dumont, F. Lebeau, J. Bindelle

... L.S. Martello, T.F. Canata, R.V. Sousa

19. Capturing, Demonstrating And Delivering Value From Integrating Real-Time On-Farm Sensing With External Information Flows

The requirement for significant productivity gains in the agricultural sector is undeniable. Sustainable, viable industries must be capable of consistently producing a margin above the base costs of production. This is particularly challenging for the extensive grazing enterprises in Australia as the operating environment has become increasingly complex, dynamic and challenging and there is a continual and increasing need to demonstrate improved efficiency to the wider community...
