1. On-The-Go pH Sensor: An Evaluation in a Kentucky FieldA commercially available on-the-go soil pH sensor measures and maps subsurface soil pH at high spatial intensities across managed landscapes. The overall purpose of this project was to evaluate the potential for this sensor to be used in agricultural fields. The specific goals were to determine and evaluate 1) the accuracy with which this instrument can be calibrated, 2) the geospatial structure of soil pH measurements,... T. Mueller, E. Gianello, B.

2. Soil Organic Carbon Multivariate Predictions Based on Diffuse Spectral Reflectance: Impact of Soil MoistureSpatial predictions of soil organic carbon (OC) developed with proximal and remotely sensed diffuse reflectance spectra are complicated by field soil moisture variation. Our objective was to determine how moisture impacted spectral reflectance and Walkley-Black OC predictions. Soil reflectance from the North American Proficiency Testing... T. Mueller, C. Matocha, F.

3. Precision Nitrogen and Water Management for Optimized Sugar Beet Yield and Sugar ContentSugar beet (SB) production profitability is based on maximizing three parameters: beet yield, sucrose content, and sucrose recovery efficiency. Efficient nitrogen (N) and water management are key for successful SB production. Nitrogen deficits in the soil can reduce root and sugar yield. Overapplication of N can reduce sucrose content and increase nitrate impurities which lowers sucrose recovery. Application of N in excess of SB crop need leads to vigorous canopy growth, while compromising root... O.S. Walsh, S. Shafian |
