1. Estimation of Leaf Nitrogen Concentration in Barley with In Situ Hyperspectral MeasurementsLeaf nitrogen concentration (LNC), a good indicator of nitrogen status in crop, is of special significance to diagnose nutrient stress and guide nitrogen fertilization in fields. Due to its non-destructive and quick advantages, hyperspectral remote sensing plays a unique role... J.M. Wang, C.M. Li, X.M. Yang, W.M. Huang, H.M. Yang, X.M. Xu |
2. Measurement of Systematic Errors in Crop PredictionPrecision agriculture typically attempts to answer grower questions using an increasingly more fine-grained analysis. However, some entities, such as cooperatives, can have an interest in answers that are spatially course-grained, such as obtaining an estimate of the overall crop production within a season. Errors in factors that most influence fine-grained predictions, such as soil quality, may have a smaller impact on overall yield forecasts since their effect is likely to average... A.M. Denton, E.W.

3. Design of VAV System of Air Assisted Sprayer in Orchard and Experimental Study in ChinaOne type of new automatic target detecting based on size of canopy with variable chemical dosage and air-flow of fan orchard sprayer was designed and developed to meet the demand of chemical pest control in orchards. Canopy parameter data scanned by infrared sensors and LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) were used to detect the target and to design spraying algorithm and PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control system. Four integrated five-finger atomizers were equipped on each side of sprayer, independent... H. Xiongkui, L. Longlong, S. Jianli, Z. Aijun, L. Yajia |
4. Improving Active Canopy Sensor-Based In-Season N Recommendation Using Plant Height Information for Rain-Fed Maize in Northeast ChinaThe inefficient utilization of nitrogen (N) fertilizer due to leaching, volatilization and denitrification has resulted in environmental pollution in rain-fed maize production in Northeast China. Active canopy sensor-based in-season N application has been proven effective to meet maize N requirement in space and time. The objective of this research was to evaluate the feasibility of using active canopy sensor for guiding in in-season N fertilizer recommendation for rain-fed maize in Northeast... X. Wang, Y.

5. Functional Soil Property Mapping with Electrical Conductivity, Spectral and Satellite Remote SensorsProximal electrical conductivity (EC) and spectral sensing has been widely used as a cost-effective tool for soil mapping at field scale. The traditional method of calibrating proximal sensors for functional soil property prediction (e.g., soil organic matter, sand, silt, and clay contents) requires the local soil sample data, which results in a field-specific calibration. In this large-scale study consisting of 126 fields, we found that the traditional local calibration method had suffered weak... X. Xiong, D. Myers, J. Debruin, B. Gunzenhauser, N. Sampath, D. Ye, H.

6. Detecting Nitrogen Deficiency and Leaf Chlorophyll Content (LCC) Using Sentinel-2 Vegetation IndicesLeaf chlorophyll content (LCC) is a significant indicator of photosynthetic performance and development status of plants. Remote sensing of crop chlorophyll often serves as a basic tool of crop nitrogen fertilization recommendation. The study's objective is to see how remote sensing can better monitor the growth difference of crops, such as LCC. In this study, we investigated the performance vegetation indices in (1) detecting the responses of wheat growth to nitrogen deficiency, and (2) estimating... X. Xu, A. Mokhtari, K. Yu |
