1. Networking Advances Emerging Agricultural TechnologiesInnovative Nebraska farmers and agribusinesses partnered with University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) extension in 2001 to form the Nebraska Agricultural Technologies Association (NeATA). UNL Extension faculty and NeATA members have collaborated for nearly a decade to further agriculturists' understanding and adoption of emerging agricultural technologies via machinery/technology field days, hands-on GIS/GPS computer workshops, aerial imagery experiential learning,...

2. Terrain Modeling to Improve Soil Survey in North DakotaUsers of site-specific technologies would prefer to use digitized soil survey boundaries to help in delineating management zones for nutrient application. However, the present scale of soil type does not allow meaningful zone delineation. A project was conducted to use terrain modeling and other site- specific tools to delineate smaller-scale soil type boundaries that would be more useful for directing within-field nutrient management. Topography, soil EC, yield mapping and satellite imagery were... D.W. Franzen, J.L. Boettinger |
3. Crop Price Variation and Water Saving Technologies in Alborz Province of IranConsidering the importance and scarcity of water resources, the efficient management of water resources is of great imp,ortance. Adoption of modern irrigation technology is considered to be a key of increasing the efficiency of water used in agriculture. Policy makers have implemented several ways to induce the adoption of new irrigation technology. The empirical studies show that farmers are reluctant to utilize the use of new irrigation methods. This study aims to assess factors affecting on... S. Yazdani, S. Nikravesh, S. Bagheri |
4. Economic Potential of RoboWeedMaps - Use of Deep Learning for Production of Weed Maps and Herbicide Application MapsIn Denmark, a new IPM ‘product chain’ has been constructed, which starts with systematic photographing of fields and ends up with field- or site-specific herbicide application. A special high-speed camera, mounted on an ATV took sufficiently good pictures of small weed plants, while driving up to 50 km/h. Pictures were uploaded to the RoboWeedMaps online platform, where appointed internal- and external persons with agro-botanical experience executed ‘virtual field inspection’... P. Rydahl, O.

5. Can Soil Fertility Data and Topography Predict Yield Stability Zones for Corn Fields in New York?Yield monitor systems play a vital role in precision agriculture given their ability to capture and map within-field yield variability. When three or more years of yield data are available, yield stability zone maps can be generated to show both the spatial and temporal variability of yield within a field. Based on the farm’s overall temporal mean and standard deviation for a specific crop, we can classify areas in the field as consistently high- (Q1) or low-yielding (Q4), and variably high-... M.
