1. Estimation of Leaf Nitrogen Concentration in Barley with In Situ Hyperspectral MeasurementsLeaf nitrogen concentration (LNC), a good indicator of nitrogen status in crop, is of special significance to diagnose nutrient stress and guide nitrogen fertilization in fields. Due to its non-destructive and quick advantages, hyperspectral remote sensing plays a unique role... J.M. Wang, C.M. Li, X.M. Yang, W.M. Huang, H.M. Yang, X.M. Xu |
2. Evaluation of Strip Tillage Systems in Maize Production in HungaryStrip tillage is a form of conservation tillage system. It combines the benefits of conventional tillage systems with the soil-protecting advantages of no-tillage. The tillage zone is typically 0.25 to 0.3 m wide and 0.25 to 0.30 m deep. The soil surface between these strips is left undisturbed and the residue from the previous crop remain on the soil surface. The residue-covered area reaches 60-70%. Keeping residue on the surface helps prevent soil structure and reduce water loss from the soil.... T. Rátonyi, P. Ragán, D. Sulyok, J. Nagy, E. Harsányi, A. Vántus, N. Csatári |
3. Examining the Relationship Between SPAD, LAI and NDVI Values in a Maize Long-Term ExperimentIn Hungary, the preconditions for the use of precision crop production have undergone enormous development over the last five years. RTK coverage is complete in crop production areas. Consultants are increasingly using the vegetation index maps from Landsat and Sentinel satellite data, but measurements with on-site proximal plant sensors are also needed to exclude the influence of the atmosphere. The aim of our studies was to compare the values measured by proximal plant sensors in the... P. Ragán, E. Harsányi, J. Nagy, T. Ágnes, T. Rátonyi, A. Vántus, N. Csatári |
4. The Spread of Precision Livestock Farming Technology at Dairy Farms in East HungaryDuring the survey, 25 dairy farms were examined in East Hungary in Hajdú-Bihar (H-B) County between 2017 and 2018 by methodical observation and oral interviews with the farm managers, about the spread of Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) technologies. Among Holstein Friesian dairy farms in the County 60% were questioned, and the representativity was above 47 percent ins each size category. Nine precision farming equipment were examined on the farms: milking robot or robotic carousel milking... C. Nándor, T. Rátonyi, E. Harsányi, P. Ragán, Z. Hagymássy, J. Nagy, A. Vántus |
5. Treetop Tech: Uplifting German Foresters' Drone Perspectives Through the Technology Acceptance ModelForests play a key role in nature as they purify water, stabilize soil, cycle nutrients, store carbon and also provide habitats for wildlife. Economically, forest product industries provide jobs and economic wealth. Sustainable forest management and planning requires foresters’ understanding of the forests dynamics for which the collection of field data is necessary, which can be time consuming and expensive. Unmanned aerial vehicles or drones can improve the efficiency of tradition acquisition... M. Michels, H. Wever, O. Mußhoff |
6. Farming for a Greener Future: the Behavioural Drive Behind German Farmers’ Alternative Fuel Machinery Purchase IntentionsClimate change due to greenhouse gas emissions, e.g. anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2), in the atmosphere will lead to damages caused by global warming, increases in heavy rainfall, flooding as well as permafrost melt. One of the main issues for reducing greenhouse gas emissions is the dependence on oil for fueling transportation and other sectors. Accordingly, policy makers aim to reduce dependency on fossil fuels with the accelerated roll-out of renewable energy. Among others, the... M. Michels, V. Bonke, H. Wever, O. Mußhoff |
7. Optimizing Vineyard Crop Protection: an In-depth Study of Spraying Drone Operational ParametersIn modern agriculture, the precise and efficient application of agrochemicals is essential to ensure crop health and increase productivity while minimizing adverse environmental impacts. While traditional spraying methods have long been the cornerstone of crop protection, the introduction of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones), has led to a revolutionary era in agriculture. UAVs offer novel opportunities to improve agricultural practices by providing precision, efficiency,... V. Psiroukis, S. Fountas, H. Uyar, A. Balafoutis, A. Kasimati |
8. Participatory Irrigation Extension Programs to Increasing Adoption of Best Irrigation StrategiesFarmers in Alabama, Tennessee, and other US southeastern states lack experience in irrigation water management and adoption of the state-of-the-art technologies and practices to increase irrigation water use efficiency. Several federal and state-funded projects are being implemented to demonstrate and train farmers and consultants on irrigation scheduling strategies and variable rate irritation. Half a dozen on-farm demonstration sites are selected every year to evaluate, demonstrate, and train... L. Nunes, E. Francisco, R. Prasad, B.V. Ortiz, E. Abban-baidoo , M. Worosz, M. Robinette , C.
