1. Evaluating Leaf Fluorescence Sensor Dualex 4 For Estimating Rice Nitrogen Status In Northeast ChinaReal-time non-destructive diagnosis of crop nitrogen (N) status is crucially important for the success of in-season site-specific N management. Chlorophyll meter (CM) has been commonly used to non-destructively estimate crop leaf chlorophyll concentration, and indirectly estimate crop N status. Dualex 4 is a newly developed leaf fluorescence sensor that can estimate both leaf chlorophyll concentration and polyphenolics, especially flavonoids. When N is deficient, N stress can induce... W.

2. Large-scale UAS Data Collection, Processing and Management for Field Crop ManagementNorth Dakota State University research and Extension personnel are collaborating with Elbit Systems of America to compare the usefulness and economics of imagery collected from a large unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), small UAS and satellite imagery. Project personnel are using a large UAS powered with an internal combustion engine to collect high-resolution imagery over 100,000 acres twice each month during the crop growing season. Four-band multispectral Imagery is also being collected twice... J. Nowatzki, S. Bajwa, D. Roberts, M. Ossowski, A. Scheve, A. Johnson, Y. Chaplin |
3. Data Fusion of Imagery from Different Satellites for Global and Daily Crop MonitoringSatellite-based Crop Monitoring is an important tool for decision making of irrigation, fertilization, crop protection, damage assessment and more. To allow crop monitoring worldwide, on a daily basis, data fusion of images taken by different satellites is required. So far, most researches on data fusion focus on retrospective analysis, while advanced crop monitoring capabilities mandate the use of data in real time mode. Therefore, our project goals were: (1) to build a data-fusion online system... O. Beeri, R. Pelta, S. Mey-tal, J. Raz |
4. Designated Value for a Field Polygon Based on Imagery Data: A Case Study of Crop Vigor in Agricultural Application for IrrigationAny irrigation action for a field management zone, which is based on images, requires a transformation into single value. Since data distribution is ab-normal in an image, using a mean value to estimate the crop coefficient (Kc), an overlaid polygon may not represent properly its water demand. Therefore, this project’s aim was to examine to which extent different statistics of potential designated values will affect an estimated Kc, and consequently affect irrigation practices. Satellite... R. Rud, O. Beeri, S. Mey-tal |
5. The Spread of Precision Livestock Farming Technology at Dairy Farms in East HungaryDuring the survey, 25 dairy farms were examined in East Hungary in Hajdú-Bihar (H-B) County between 2017 and 2018 by methodical observation and oral interviews with the farm managers, about the spread of Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) technologies. Among Holstein Friesian dairy farms in the County 60% were questioned, and the representativity was above 47 percent ins each size category. Nine precision farming equipment were examined on the farms: milking robot or robotic carousel milking... C. Nándor, T. Rátonyi, E. Harsányi, P. Ragán, Z. Hagymássy, J. Nagy, A. Vántus |
6. Active Canopy Sensor-Based Precision Rice Management Strategy for Improving Grain Yield, Nitrogen and Water UseThe objective of this research was to develop an active crop sensor-based precision rice (Oryza sativa L.) management (PRM) strategy to improve rice yield, N and water use efficiencies and evaluate it against farmer’s rice management in Northeast China. Two field experiments were conducted from 2011 to 2013 in Jiansanjiang, Heilongjiang Province, China, involving four treatments and two varieties (Kongyu 131 and Longjing 21). The results indicated that PRM system significantly increased... J. Lu, H. Wang, Y. Miao |
7. 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 |
8. Assessing the Potential of Sentinel-1 in Retrieving Mango Phenology and Investigating Its Relation to Weather in Southern GhanaThe rise in global production of horticultural tree crops over the past few decades is driving technology-based innovation and research to promote productivity and efficiency. Although mango production is on the rise, application of the remote sensing technology is generally limited and the available study on retrieving mango phenology stages specifically, was focused on the application of optical data. We therefore sought to answer the questions; (1) can key phenology stages of mango be retrieved... B.A. Torgbor, M.M. Rahman, A. Robson, J. Brinkhoff |
9. Long-range Bluetooth Smart Stakes and High-gain Receivers for High-density Sensing in Precision AgricultureTo achieve the goals of precision agriculture, accurate spatial-temporal soil information is needed, especially because soil properties can change within and between growing seasons. While remote sensing can provide high coverage, some soil properties must be measured in situ. Current existing industry solutions are too expensive per unit to deploy in sufficiently high density for dynamic management zones, creating a need for low-cost sensor networks.... S. Craven, C. Sandholtz, B. Mazzeo |
10. Comparing Proximal and Remote Sensors for Variable Rate Nitrogen Management in CottonSensing and variable rate technology are becoming increasingly important in precision agriculture. These technologies utilize sensors to monitor crop growth and health, enabling informed decisions such as diagnosing nitrogen (N) stress and applying variable rates of N. Sensor-based solutions allow for customized N applications based on plant needs and environmental factors. This approach has led to notable reductions in N application rates, minimized N losses by improving N use efficiency (NUE),... A. Bhattarai, A. Jakhar, L. Bastos, G.J. Scarpin |
