1. A Comparison Of Conventional And Sensor-based Lime Requirement MapsSuccessful variable-rate applications of agricultural inputs, such as lime, rely on quality of input data. Systematic soil sampling is... A.K. Jonjak, V.I. Adamchuk, C.S. Wortmann, C.A. Shapiro, R.B. Fergugson |
2. A Crop And Soil Strategy For Sensor-based Variable-rate Nitrogen ManagementCrop-based active canopy sensors and soil-based management zones (MZ) are currently being studied as tools to direct in-season variable-rate N application. Some have suggested the integration of these tools as a more robust decision tool for guiding spatially variable N rates. The objectives of this study were to identify (1) soil variables useful for MZ delineation and (2) determine if MZ could be useful in identifying field areas wi... D.F. Roberts, J.F. Shanahan, R.B.

3. Analysis Of Water Use Efficiency Using On-the-go Soil Sensing And A Wireless NetworkAn efficient irrigation system should meet the demands of the growing crops. While limited water supply may result in yield reduction, excess irrigation is a waste of resources. To investigate water use efficiency, on-the-go sensing technology was used to reveal soil spatial variability relevant to water holding capacity (in this example, field elevation and apparent electrical conductivity). These high-density data layers were used to identify strategic sites where monitoring water availabil... L. Pan, V.I. Adamchuk, D.L. Martin, M.A. Schroeder, R.B. Fergugson |

5. Precision Agriculture Education Program In NebraskaWith the cost of agricultural inputs and the instability of commodity prices increasing, demand is growing for training in the essential skills needed to successfully implement site-specific crop management. This set of skills is uniquely interdisciplinary in nature. Thus, it is essential for potential users of precision agriculture to understand the basics of geodetic and electronic control equipment, principles of geographic information systems, fundamenta...
