1. Accounting For Spatial Correlation Using Radial Smoothers In Statistical Models Used For Developing Variable-rate Treatment PrescriptionsVariable-rate treatment prescriptions for use on commercial farms can be developed from embedded field trials on those farms. Such embedded trials typically involve non-random, high-density sampling schemes that result in large datasets and response variables exhibiting spatial correlation. In order to accurately evaluate the significance of the effects of the applied treatments and the measured field characteristics on the response of interest, this spatial correlation must be accounted for in...

2. Crop Circle Sensor-Based Precision Nitrogen Management Strategy For Rice In Northeast ChinaGreenSeeker (GS) sensor-based precision N management strategy for rice has been developed, significantly improved N fertilizer use efficiency. Crop Circle ACS-470 (CC) active sensor is a new user configurable sensor, with a choice of 6 possible bands. The objectives of this study were to identify important vegetation indices obtained from CC sensor for estimating rice yield potential and rice responsiveness to topdressing N application and evaluate their potential improvements over GS normalized...

3. Modifying Agro-Economic Models to Predict Effects of Spatially Varying Nitrogen on Wheat Yields for a Farm in Western AustraliaAgricultural research in broadacre farming in Western Australia has a strong history, resulting in a significant public resource of knowledge about biophysical processes affecting crop performance. However, translation of this knowledge into improved on-farm decision making remains a challenge to the industry. Online and mobile decision support tools to assist tactical farm management decisions are not widely adopted, for reasons including: (1) they take too much time and training to learn; and... F.H.
