1. Performance Of The Veris Nir Spectrophotometer For Mapping Soil C In The Palouse Soils Of Eastern WashingtonRecent advances in sensing technology have made measuring and mapping the dynamics of important soil properties that regulate carbon and nutrient budgets possible. The Veris Technologies (Salinas, KS) Near Infrared (NIR) Spectrometer is one of the first sensors available for collecting geo-referenced NIR soil spectra on-the-go. Field studies were conducted to evaluate the performance of the Veris NIR in wheat grown under both conventional and no-till management in the Palouse region of eastern... F. Pierce, E.M. Perry, S.L.

2. Spot- Application of Pre-Emergence Herbicide Using a Variable Rate Sprayer in Wild BlueberryWild blueberry producers apply herbicides uniformly to control grasses and weeds without considering the significant weed density variability and bare spots within fields. The repeated and excessive use of herbicides... Q. Zaman, Y. Chang, A. Farooque, A. Schumann, D. Percival, M. Cheema, T. Esau |
3. Detection Of Fruit In Canopy Night-Time Images: Two Case Studies With Apple And MangoReliable estimation of the expected yield remains a major challenge in orchards. In a recent work we reported the development of an algorithm for estimating the number of fruits in images of apple trees acquired in natural daylight conditions. In the present work we tested this approach with night-time images of similar apple trees and further adapted this approach to night-time images of mango trees. Working with the apple images required only... R. Linker, A. Payne, K. Walsh, O. Cohen |
4. Field-scale Nitrogen Recommendation Tools for Improving a Canopy Reflectance Sensor AlgorithmNitrogen (N) rate recommendation tools are utilized to help producers maximize grain yield production. Many of these tools provide recommendations at field scales but often fail when corn N requirements are variable across the field. This may result in excess N being lost to the environment or producers receiving decreased economic returns on yield. Canopy reflectance sensors are capable of capturing within-field variability, although the sensor algorithm recommendations may not always be as accurate... C.J. Ransom, M. Bean, N. Kitchen, J.
