1. Development of Sensing System Using Digital Photography Technique for Spot-Application of Herbicide in Wild Blueberry FieldsAn automated sensing system, hardware and software, was developed for spot-application of herbicide with 6.1 m boom automated prototype sprayer....

2. Relationship of Soil Properties to Apparent Ground Conductivity in Wild Blueberry FieldsOne of the fundamental deficiencies in high value crops is the lack of detailed, up-to-date and pertinent geo-referenced soil information for site-specific crop management to improve productivity. This experiment was designed to estimate and map soil properties rapidly and reliably using an electromagnetic induction (EMI) method. Two wild blueberry... F.S. Khan, Q.U. Zaman, A.W. Schumann, A.

3. Performance Evaluation Of A Prototype Variable Rate Sprayer For Spot- Application Of Agrochemicals In Wild Blueberry FieldsWild blueberry yields are highly dependent on agrochemicals for adequate weed control. The excessive use of agrochemicals with uniform application in significant bare spots and plant areas has resulted in increased cost of production. A cost-effective automated prototype variable rate (VR) sprayer was developed for spot-application (SA) of agrochemicals in a specific section of the sprayer boom where the weeds have been detected. The weed patches were mapped with an RTK-GPS... Q. Zaman, A.W. Schumann, D.C. Percival, T.J. Esau, S.M. Read |
4. Estimating Soil Moisture And Organic Matter Content Variabality Using Electromagnatic Induction MetodAbstract: Electromagnetic induction (EMI) methods are gaining popularity due to their non-destructive nature, rapid response and ease of integration into mobile platforms for assessment of the soil moisture content, water table depth, and salinity etc. The objective of this study was to estimate and map soil moisture content and organic matter content using DualEM....

5. Precision Nutrient Management System Based on Ion and Crop Growth SensingAutomated sensing and variable-rate supply of nutrients in hydroponic solutions according to the status of crop growth would allow more efficient nutrient management for crop growth in closed systems. The Structure from Motion (SfM) method has risen as a new image sensing method to obtain 3D images of plants that can be used to estimate their growth, such as leaf cover area (LCA), plant height, and fresh weight. In this sense, sensor fusion technology combining ion-selective electrodes (ISEs)... W. Cho, D. Kim, C. Kang, H. Kim, J. Son, S. Chung, J. Jiang, H. Yun |
