1. Production And Conservation Results From A Decade-Long Field-Scale Precision Agriculture SystemResearch is needed that simultaneously evaluates production and conservation outcomes of precision agriculture practices. From over a decade (1993-2003) of yield and soil mapping and water quality assessment, a multi-faceted, “precision agriculture system” (PAS) was developed and initiated in 2004 on a 36-ha field in Central Missouri. The PAS assessment was accomplished by comparing it to the previous decade of conventional corn-soybean... C. Baffaut, K. Sudduth, J. Sadler, R. Kremer, R. Lerch, N. Kitchen, K. Veum |
2. Analysis of High Yield Condition Using a Rice Yield Predictive ModelRice production in Japan is facing problems of yield and quality instability owing to recent climate changes and a decline in rice prices, and possible competition with foreign inexpensive rice. Thus, it is becoming more important to stably achieve high yield and quality, while reducing production costs. Various data, including crop growth, farmer’s management styles, yield and quality, has recently become accessible in actual fields using advanced information and communication technologies.... Y.

3. SMARTfarm Learning Hub: Next Generation Precision Agriculture Technologies for Agricultural EducationThe industry demands on higher education agricultural students are rapidly changing. New precision agriculture technologies are revolutionizing the farming industry but the education sector is failing to keep pace. This paper reports on the development of a key resource, the SMARTfarm Learning Hub (www.smartfarmhub.com) that will increase the skill base of higher education students using a range of new agricultural technologies and innovations. The Hub is a world first; it links real industry... M. Trotter, S. Gregory, T. Trotter, T. Acuna, D. Swain, W. Fasso, J. Roberts, A. Zikan, A. Cosby |
4. A Decade of Precision Agriculture Impacts on Grain Yield and Yield VariationTargeting management practices and inputs with precision agriculture has high potential to meet some of the grand challenges of sustainability in the coming century, including simultaneously improving crop yields and reducing environmental impacts. Although the potential is high, few studies have documented long-term effects of precision agriculture on crop production and environmental quality. More specifically, long-term impacts of precision conservation practices such as cover crops, no-tillage,... M.A. Yost, N. Kitchen, K. Sudduth, S. Drummond, J. Sadler |
5. Utilizing Thermal and RGB Imaging for Nutrient Deficiency and Chlorophyll Status Evaluation in PlantsAs global population growth and climate change continue to challenge food security, addressing agricultural issues efficiently and cost-effectively is vital for enhancing productivity. Integrating technology into agriculture, particularly through timely interventions, offers promising solutions to mitigate challenges before they escalate. This study investigates the feasibility of using thermal and RGB imaging as efficient, non-destructive methods to assess nutrient deficiencies and chlorophyll... A.H. Rabia, D.G. Allam, E.F.
