1. Development Of Online Soil Profile Sensor For Variable Depth TillageIntroduction First introduced in the early 1990s, precision agriculture technologies, or site-specific management, were considered by many to be perhaps the most significant development in production agriculture focused on improving farm profitability. The initial focus was on fertility, and treating the variability that we all knew existed from our experiences with soil sampling. However, to a large extent this application still... A.B. Tekin, H.

2. Exploiting The Variability In Pasture Production On New Zealand Hill Country.New Zealand has about four million hectares in medium to steep hill country pasture to which granular solid fertiliser is applied by airplane. On most New Zealand hill country properties where cultivation is not possible the only means of influencing pasture production yield is through the addition of fertilizers and paddock subdivision to control grazing and pasture growth rates. Pasture response to fertilizer varies in production zones within the farm which can be modelled... M.Q. Grafton, P.J. Mcveagh, R.R. Pullanagari, I.J. Yule |
