1. Research on Straight-Line Path Tracking Control Methods in an Agricultural Vehicle Navigation SystemIn the precision agriculture (PA), an agricultural vehicle navigation system is essential and precision of the vehicle path tracking is of great importance in such a system. As straight line operation is the main way of agricultural vehicles on large fields, this paper focuses on the discussion of straight-line path tracking control methods and proposes an agricultural vehicle path tracking algorithm based on the optimal control theory. First, the paper deduces a relative kinematics model of agricultural... T. Li, J. Hu, L. Gao, H. Hu, X. Bai, X. Liu |
2. Chlorophyll Fluorescence Approaches To Estimate The Vitality Of PlantsChlorophyll fluorescence is a now well-established technique for the analysis of photosynthesis in plants and algae. Fluorescence transients (Kautsky curves), exhibited by photosynthetic organisms under different conditions provide detail information about the structure, conformation and function of the photosynthetic apparatus, especially of photosystem II. The analysis of the so-called OJIP-curve and of the pulsed-aplitude-modulated fluorometry in conjunction with the saturation... R. Valcke, D. Bierman |
3. Who Are the Data Stewards: Moving Data Driven Agriculture ForwardNearly a decade ago agricultural equipment manufacturers, service providers, retailers, land grant universities, and grower organizations came together to begin discussing the growing needs for producers to manage their farm data. This discussion was partly fueled by the industry shifting from moving data via physical media to cloud API connections. Several initiatives including the Agricultural Data Coalition (ADC) were subsequently launched focusing on addressing data privacy and security concerns... B.E. Craker, D. Bierman |
4. Hierarchical Zoning: Targeted Sampling for Soil Attribute MappingThe mapping of soil attributes for fertilizer recommendation remains challenging in precision agriculture. Traditionally, this mapping is done through soil sampling in a regular grid, which generally yields good results when done in denser grids. However, due to the high costs associated with sampling and analysis, sparser grids have been adopted, which has not produced good prediction results. Some studies with directed sampling points to obtain more accurate soil maps have been adopted to address... D.D. Melo, I.A. Da cunha, T.L. Brasco, H. Oldoni, L.R. Amaral |
5. Sampling-based on Plant Vigor Zones As a Strategy for Creating Soil Attribute MapsMapping agronomically relevant soil properties for fertilizer recommendation remains challenging in precision agriculture. Traditionally, this mapping is conducted through soil sampling on a regular grid basis, where points are equally spaced primarily to ensure spatial coverage. However, directing soil sampling points based on plant vigor may be more efficient in capturing soil variability that directly affects plant development. Several commercial platforms offer solutions for defining management... D.D. Melo, T.L. Brasco, I.A. Da cunha, S.G. Castro, L.R. Amaral |
