4. Evaluation of the Sensor Suite for Detection of Plant Water Stress in Orchard and Vineyard CropsA mobile sensor suite was developed and evaluated to predict plant water status by measuring the leaf temperature of nut trees and grapevines. It consists of an infrared thermometer to measure leaf temperature along with relevant ambient condition sensors to measure microclimatic variables in the vicinity of the leaf. Sensor suite was successfully evaluated in three crops (almonds, walnuts and grapevines) for both sunlit and shaded leaves. Stepwise linear regression models developed for shaded... R. Dhillon, V.

5. Cotton Precision Farming Adoption In The Southern United States: Findings From A 2009 SurveyThe objectives of this study were 1) to determine the status of precision farming technology adoption by cotton producers in 12 states and 2) to evaluate changes in cotton precision farming technology adoption between 2000 and 2008. A mail survey of cotton producers located in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia was conducted in February and March of 2009 to establish the use of precision farming technologies...

6. Effect Of A Variable Rate Irrigation Strategy On The Variability Of Crop Production In Wine Grapes In CaliforniaPruning and irrigation are the cultural practices with the highest potential impact on yield and quality in wine grapes. In particular, irrigation start date, rates and frequency can be synchronized with crop development stages to control canopy growth and, in turn, positively influence light microclimate, berry size and fruit quality. In addition, canopy management practices can be implemented in vineyards with large canopies to ensure fruit zone microclimate... L.A. Sanchez, L.J. Klein, A. Claassen, D. Lew, M. Mendez-costabel, B.

7. Evaluating Remote Sensing Based Adaptive Nitrogen Management for Potato ProductionConventional nitrogen (N) management for potato production in the Upper Midwest, USA relies on using split-applications of N fertilizer or a controlled release N product. Using remote sensing to adaptively manage N applications has the potential to improve N use efficiency and reduce losses of nitrate to groundwater, which are important regional concerns. A two-year plot-scale experiment was established to evaluate adaptive N-management using remote sensing compared to conventional practices for... B. Bohman, D. Mulla, C. Rosen |
8. Precision Application of Seeding Rates for Weed and Nitrogen Management in Organic Grain SystemsIn a time of increasing ecological awareness, organic agriculture offers sustainable solutions to many of the polluting aspects of conventional agriculture. However, without synthetic inputs, organic agriculture faces unique challenges such as weed control and fertility management. Precision Agriculture (PA) has been used to successfully increase input use efficiency in conventional systems and now offers itself as a potential tool for organic farmers as well. PA enables on farm experimentation... S. Loewen, B.D. Maxwell |
9. Cotton Boll Detection and Yield Estimation Using UAS Lidar Data and RGB ImageCotton boll distribution is a critical phenotypic trait that represents the plant's response to its environment. Accurate quantification of boll distribution provides valuable information for breeding cultivars with high yield and fiber quality. Manual methods for boll mapping are time-consuming and labor-intensive. We evaluated the application of Lidar point cloud and RGB image data in boll detection and distribution and yield estimation. Lidar data was acquired at 15 m using a DJI Matrice... Z. Lin, W. Guo, N. Gill |
10. Evaluating the Potential of Improving In-season Nitrogen Status Diagnosis of Potato Using Leaf Fluorescence Sensors and Machine LearningPrecision nitrogen (N) management is particularly important for potato crops due to their high N fertilizer demand and high N leaching potential caused by their shallow root systems and preference for coarse-textured soils. Potato farmers have been using a standard lab analysis called petiole nitrate-N (PNN) test as a tool to diagnose potato N status and guide in-season N management. However, the PNN test suffers from many disadvantages including time constraints, labor, and cost of analysis.... S. Wakahara, Y. Miao, S. Gupta, C. Rosen, K. Mizuta, J. Zhang, D. Li |
11. Strawberry Pest Detection Using Deep Learning and Automatic Imaging SystemStrawberry growers need to monitor pests to determine the options for pest management to reduce damage to yield and quality. However, manually counting strawberry pests using a hand lens is time-consuming and biased by the observer. Therefore, an automated rapid pest scouting method in the strawberry field can save time and improve counting consistency. This study utilized six cameras to take images of the strawberry leaf. Due to the relatively small size of the strawberry pest, six cameras... C. Zhou, W. Lee, A. Pourreza, J.K. Schueller, O.E. Liburd, Y. Ampatzidis, G. Zuniga-ramirez |
12. Yield Potential Zones and Their Relationship with Soil Taxonomic Classes and Management ZonesThe use of management zones (MZ) to subdivide agricultural areas based on the variability of yield potential and production factors is increasingly being explored by scientific research and demanded by farmers. However, there is still much uncertainty about which layers of information and procedures should be adopted for this purpose. Thus, our goal was to demonstrate whether simplistic approaches to creating MZ can satisfactorily address the variability of yield potential and soil classes. For... L.R. Amaral, H. Oldoni, D.D. Melo, N.A. Rosin, M.R. Alves, J.M. Demattê |
13. A Decision-support Tool to Optimize Mid-season Corn Nitrogen Fertilizer Management from Red, Green, Blue SUAS ImagesCorn receives more nitrogen (N) fertilizer per unit area than any other row crop and optimized soil fertility management is needed to help maximize farm profitability. In Arkansas, N fertilizer for corn is delivered in two- or three-split applications. Three-split applications may provide a better match to crop needs and contribute to minimizing yield loss from N deficiency. However, the total amounts are selected based on soil texture and yield goal without accounting for early-season losses... A. Poncet, T. Bui, W. France, T. Roberts, L. Purcell, J. Kelley |
14. Evaluating Different Strategies for In-season Potato Nitrogen Status Diagnosis Using Two Leaf SensorsAccurate and efficient in-season diagnosis of potato nitrogen (N) status is key to the success of in-season N management for improved profitability and environmental protection. Sensor-based approaches will support more timely decision making compared to plant tissue-based approaches. SPAD-502 (SPAD; Konica Minolta, Tokyo, Japan) is a commonly used sensor for potato N status diagnosis. Dualex Scientific+ (Dualex; METOS® by Pessl Instruments, Weiz, Austria) is a new leaf chlorophyll... S. Wakahara, Y. Miao, S. Gupta, C. Rosen |
15. Computer Vision by UAVs for Estimate Soybean Population Across Different Physiological Growth Stages and Sowing SpeedsSoybean (Glycine max (Linnaeus) Merrill) production in the United States plays a crucial role in agriculture, occupying a considerable amount of cultivated land. However, the costs associated with soybean production have shown a notable increase in recent years, with seed-related expenses accounting for a significant proportion of the total. This increase in costs is attributed to a number of factors, including the introduction of patented and protected genetic traits, as well as inflationary... F. Pereira de souza, L. Shiratsuchi, H.
