1. New Innovation Approaches In Precision Farming – The Example Of The Base Fertilization ProcessNowadays, innovations in Precision Farming are mostly bound to further developments and new solution approaches on the technical level. However, for efficient service provision it is important to work on strategies for application of these technologies. To satisfy customers’ demands for highly specialized methods and detailed results collaboration between various companies in service consortiums is often required. In doing so, every company can provide its proven and evidentially effective... J. Friedrich, M. Becker, M.F. Schneider, S. Klingner |
2. Rapid Sensing For Water Stress Detection In Foxtail Millet (Setaria Italica)In recent years, the drought conditions due to changing climate patterns have adversely affected the U.S. agriculture. The 2012 drought that damaged major crops in Midwest was one of the most severe in last 25 years. It has resulted in losses of production, revenue, livestock and jobs, and has increased food prices. Under these circumstances, farmers are focused to use the water resources carefully. The researchers are working together to develop new crop varieties resistant to water... S. Sankaran, M. Wang, P. Ellsworth, A. Cousins |
3. Farming for a Greener Future: the Behavioural Drive Behind German Farmers’ Alternative Fuel Machinery Purchase IntentionsClimate change due to greenhouse gas emissions, e.g. anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2), in the atmosphere will lead to damages caused by global warming, increases in heavy rainfall, flooding as well as permafrost melt. One of the main issues for reducing greenhouse gas emissions is the dependence on oil for fueling transportation and other sectors. Accordingly, policy makers aim to reduce dependency on fossil fuels with the accelerated roll-out of renewable energy. Among others, the... M. Michels, V. Bonke, H. Wever, O. Mußhoff |
4. A Fusion Strategy to Map Corn Crop ResiduesAccess to post-harvest residue coverage information is crucial for agricultural management and soil conservation. The purpose of this study was to present a new approach based on an ensemble at the decision level for mapping the corn residue. To this end, a set of Landsat 8 imagery and field data including the Residue Cover Fraction (RCF) of corn (149 samples), were used. Firstly, a map of common spectral indices for RCF modeling was prepared based on the spectral bands. Then, the efficiency of... S. Fathololoumi, M.K. Firozjaei, A. Biswas, P. Daggupati |
5. Retrieving Nitrogen Levels in Almond Trees Using Hyperspectral Data at Leaf and Canopy LevelAlmonds are a crucial specialty crop in California, dominating approximately 80 percent of the global almond supply. To enhance nitrogen usage efficiency, reduce groundwater contamination, and optimize resource allocation, ongoing research has been dedicated to improving nitrogen management practices in almond cultivation. This study specifically focused on the retrieval of nitrogen levels with uncertainty estimation at both the leaf and canopy levels of almond trees. Hyperspectral data was collected... M.
