1. Active and Passive Crop Canopy Sensors As Tools for Nitrogen Management in CornThe objectives of this research were to (i) assess the correlation between active and passive crop canopy sensors’ vegetation indices at different corn growth stages and (ii) assess sidedress variable rate nitrogen (N) recommendation accuracy of active and passive sensors compared to the agronomic optimum N rate (AONR). The experiment was conducted near Central City, Nebraska on a Novina sandy loam planted to corn on 15 April 2015. The experiment was a randomized complete-block design with... L. Bastos, R.

2. A Comparison of Three-Dimensional Data Acquisition Methods for Phenotyping ApplicationsCurrently Phenotyping is primarily performed using two-dimensional imaging techniques. While this yields interesting data about a plant, a lot of information is lost using regular cameras. Since a plant is three-dimensional, the use of dedicated 3D-imaging sensors provides a much more complete insight into the phenotype of the plant. Different methods for 3D-data acquisition are available, each with their inherent advantages and disadvantages. These have to be addressed depending on the particular... O. Scholz, F. Uhrmann, S.

3. Active and Passive Sensor Comparison for Variable Rate Nitrogen Determination and Accuracy in Irrigated CornThe objectives of this research were to (i) compare active and passive crop canopy sensors’ sidedress variable rate nitrogen (VRN) derived from different vegetation indices (VI) and (ii) assess VRN recommendation accuracy of active and passive sensors as compared to the agronomic optimum N rate (AONR) in irrigated corn. This study is comprised of six site-years (SY), conducted in 2015, 2016 and 2017 on different soil types (silt loam, loam and sandy loam) and with a range of preplant-applied... L. Bastos, R.B.

4. Creating a Comprehensive Software Framework for Sensor-driven Precision AgricultureRobots and GPS-guided tractors are the backbone of smart farming and precision agriculture. Many companies and vendors contribute to the market, each offering their own customized solutions for common tasks. These developments are often based on vendor-specific, proprietary components, protocols and software. Many small companies that produce sensors, actuators or software for niche applications could contribute their expertise to the global efforts of creating smart farming solutions, if their... O.

5. Comparison of Machine Learning Models for Within-field Cotton Yield Prediction: Assessing the Value of Temporal Data and GeneralizabilityCotton (Gossypium hirsitum L.) yield prediction is challenging due to the complex interactions between static environmental factors, such as soil properties and topography, and dynamic variables, including weather and crop management. These factors generate significant spatial and temporal variability within and across fields. While remote sensing technologies, particularly satellite-derived vegetation indices, provide spatially explicit data to evaluate crop health, translating... L. Bastos, L. Fuhrer, W. Porter, G.J.
