1. Potential Indicators Based On Leaf Flavonoids Content for the Evaluation of Potato Crop Nitrogen StatusNitrogen (N) fertilization strategies aim to limit environmental pollution by improving potato crop N use efficiency. Such strategies may use indicators for the assessment of in season crop N status (CNS). Leaf polyphenolics (flavonoids) content appears as a valuable indicator of CNS. Because of their absorption features in... J. Goffart, F. Ben abdallah |
2. SPOT5 Multispectral Data Potentialities To Monitor Potato Crop Nitrogen Status At Specific Field ScaleThe many challenges facing European agriculture and farm of tomorrow are such that they increasingly require the setting up of Decision Support Systems (DSS) that favour integrated crop management at farm or regional level. A valuable DSS for management of split fertilizer N applications was developed in Belgium for potato crop. It combines total N recommendation based on field predictive balance-sheet method along with Crop Nitrogen Status (CNS) monitoring through hand-held chlorophyll meter... J. Goffart, A. Leonard, D.

3. Detection of Nitrogen Stress on Winter Wheat by Multispectral Machine VisionHand-held sensors (SPAD meter, N-Tester, …) used for detecting the leaves nitrogen concentration (Nc) present several drawbacks. The nitrogen concentration is gained by an indirect way through the chlorophyll concentration and the leaves have to be fixed in a defined position for the measurements. These drawbacks could be overcome by an imaging device that measures the canopy reflectance. Hence, the objective of the paper is to analyse the potential of multispectral imaging for detecting... M.

4. High Resolution Vegetation Mapping with a Novel Compact Hyperspectral Camera SystemThe COSI-system is a novel compact hyperspectral imaging solution designed for small remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS). It is designed to supply accurate action and information maps related to the crop status and health for precision agricultural applications. The COSI-Cam makes use of a thin film hyperspectral filter technology which is deposited onto an image sensor chip resulting in a compact and lightweight instrument design. This paper reports on the agricultural monitoring... B. Delauré, P. Baeck, J. Blommaert, S. Delalieux, S. Livens, A. Sima, M. Boonen, J. Goffart, G. Jacquemin, D. Nuyttens |
5. High Capacity System for Precision Agriculture Reconnaissance and IntelligenceIcaros-Demeter has developed a lightweight, compact remote sensing system with a potential for producing 100,000 acre (400km-2) thematic maps per day with high resolution digital RGB/CIR CMOS sensors. The Icaros- Demeter system enables fast, precise location of multiple area and spots types. The system’s ability for producing high precision Digital Surface Models (DSM) over vast areas, offers a direct method for computing agricultural biomass via volume calculations, instead of common indirect...

6. Use of Precision Technologies to Conduct Successful Within-field, On-farm TrialsPerforming randomized replicated trials in row crop field environments has the potential to increase crop production in environmentally sustainable ways. Successful implementation requires an understanding of implement capabilities and sources of potential systematic error, including operator error. Equipment capabilities can be thought of as a series of several critical “links in a chain,” each with implications that propagate downstream. We will... M. Stelford, A. Krmenec |
