1. The Influence of Calf’s Sex on Total Milk Yield and Its Constituents of Dairy CowsThe objective of the present work was to evaluate the influence of the sex of the calf on total milk yield and its constituents of Holstein-Friesian dairy cows. The Holstein Livestock Breeders Association of Minas Gerais provided data collected over the years from 2000 to 2016 from 127 dairy farms located in the state of Minas Gerais – Brazil. The data set analyzed contained 61747 observations of Holstein-Friesian animals that calved female (n = 28903) or male (n = 32844) calf. Fat, protein,... G.M. Dallago, D. Figueiredo, R. Santos, D.

2. Using Prescription Maps for in Field Evaluations of Parameteres Affecting Spraying Accuracy of Self-propelled SprayerWeed presence continues to reemerge year over year, chemical costs continue to increase, and chemical usage continuing to face increasing government oversight, are just a few of the challenges that site-specific weed management intends to address by minimizing wasted application of chemicals and reducing environmental load of active ingredients. Thus, sprayer system manufacturers have developed precision spray systems that allow the individual spray nozzles to be controlled precisely. These spray... J. Mayer, P. Flores, J. Stenger |
3. Comparative Analysis of Light-weight Deep Learning Architectures for Soybean Yield Estimation Based on Pod Count from Proximal Sensing Data for Mobile and Embedded Vision ApplicationsCrop yield prediction is an important aspect of farming and food-production. Therefore, estimating yield is important for crop breeders, seed-companies, and farmers to make informed real-time financial decisions. In-field soybean (Glycine max L.(Merr.)) yield estimation can be of great value to plant breeders as they screen thousands of plots to identify better yielding genotypes that ultimately will strengthen national food security. Existing soybean yield estimation tools,... J.J. Mathew, P.J. Flores, J. Stenger, C. Miranda, Z. Zhang, A.K. Das |
