1. Effect Of Nitrogen Application Rate On Soil Residual N And Cotton YieldA long-term study was conducted on nitrogen application rate and its impact on soil residual nitrogen and cotton (FM960B2RF) lint yield under a drip irrigation production system near Plainview, Texas. The experiment was a randomized complete block design with five nitrogen application rates (0, 56, 112, 168 and 224 kg per ha) and five replications. The soil nitrogen treatment was applied as side dressing. Cotton yield, leaf N, seed N, soil residual nitrate, amount of irrigation, and rainfall data... M. Parajulee, D. Neupane, C. Wang, S.

2. Evaluation Of In-Field Sensors To Monitor Nitrogen Status In SoybeanIn recent years, active optical crop sensors have been gaining importance to determine in-season nitrogen (N) fertilization requirements for on-the-go variable rate application. Although most of these active in-field crop sensors have been evaluated in corn and wheat crops, they have not yet been evaluated in soybean production systems in North Dakota. Recent research from both South Dakota and North Dakota indicate that in-season N application in soybean can increase soybean yield... J. Nowatzki, S. Bajwa, S. Sivarajan, M. Maharlooei, H. Kandel |
3. Response Of Rhodes Grass (Chloris Gayana Kunth) To Variable Rate Application Of Irrigation Water And Fertilizer NitrogenRhodes grass is cultivated extensively in Saudi Arabia under center pivot sprinkler irrigation system. The research work was carried out to optimize irrigation water and fertilizer nitrogen levels for the crop. The objectives of the study were: 1. To delineate the field in to management zones, 2. To study the effects of variable rate application (VRA) of irrigation water and fertilizer nitrogen on the yield of Rhodes grass. A field experiment was carried out from... V. Patil, R. Madugundu, E.

4. UAV-based Crop Scouting for Precision Nutrient ManagementPrecision agriculture – is one of the most substantial markets for the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Mounted on the UAVs, sensors and cameras enable rapid screening of large numbers of experimental plots to identify crop growth habits that contribute to final yield and quality in a variety of environments. Wheat is one of the Idaho’s most important cereal crops grown in 42 of 44 Idaho counties. We are working on establishing a UAV-based methodology for in-season prediction of wheat... O.S. Walsh, K. Belmont, J. Mcclintick-chess, J. Marshall, C. Jackson, C. Thompson, K. Swoboda |
5. Greenhouse Study to Identify Glyphosate-resistant Weeds Based on Canopy TemperatureDevelopment of herbicide-resistant crops has resulted in significant positive changes to agronomic practices, while repeated and intensive use of herbicides with the same mechanisms of action has caused the development of herbicide-resistant weeds. As of 2015, 35 weed species are reported to be resistant to glyphosate worldwide. A greenhouse study was conducted to identify characteristics which can be helpful in field mapping of glyphosate resistant weeds by using UAV imagery. The experiment included... A. Shirzadi, M. Maharlooei, O. Hassanijalilian, S. Bajwa, K. Howatt, S. Sivarajan, J. Nowatzki |
6. Vis/NIR Spectroscopy to Estimate Crude Protein (CP) in Alfalfa Crop: Feasibility StudyThe fast and reliable quality determination of alfalfa crop is of interest for producers to make management decisions, the dealers to determine the price, and the dairy producers for livestock management. In this study, the crude protein (CP), one of the main quality indices of alfalfa, was estimated using the visible and near-infrared (Vis/NIR) spectroscopy. A total of 68 samples from various variety trials of alfalfa crop were collected under the irrigated and rainfed conditions. The diffuse... M. Maharlooei, S. Bajwa, S.A. Mireei, A. Shirzadi, S.

7. Developing an Integrated Approach for Estimation of Soil Available Nutrient Content Using the Modified WOFOST Model and Time-Series Multispectral UAV ObservationsSoil available nutrient (SAN) plays an important role in crop growth, yield formation, and plant-soil-atmosphere system exchange. Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) are recognized as three primary nutrients in crop production. Accurate and timely information on SAN conditions at key crop growth stages is important for developing beneficial management practices. While traditional field sampling can obtain reliable information for limited number of sites, it is infeasible for spatially... Z. Cheng, J. Meng, J. Shang, J. Liu, B. Qian, Q. Jing |
8. A Simulation-based Matching System for Utilizing Clean Energy from Agri-livestock WasteIn order to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution derived from agricultural and livestock waste and to enhance the resilience of the clean energy supply chain, a simulation-based matching system for utilizing clean energy from agri-livestock waste as developed. Building upon a prior research entitled " An Inventory of Greenhouse Gases and a Map of Biomass Energy Utilization in Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Biomass Waste," the system is designed to evaluate the efficacy...
