1. The Effect of Leaf Orientation on Spray Retention on BlackgrassSpray application efficiency depends on the pesticide application method as well as target properties. A wide range of drop impact angles exists during the spray application process because of drop trajectory and the variability of the leaf orientation. As the effect of impact angle on retention is still poorly documented, laboratory studies were conducted... F. Lebeau, M. Massinon, P. Maréchal, H. Boukhalfa |
2. Fostering Student Engagement and Leadership Development in Integrative Precision Agriculture Across BordersEfforts to advance integrative precision agriculture technologies are growing exponentially across the globe with the common interest of upholding food security and developing more sustainable food and fiber production systems. Countries such as the United States and Brazil are among the biggest crop producers in the world and will play an even bigger role in food security in the next decades. It is of utmost importance that countries can advance together to overcome future food production challenges... L. Lacerda, A. Felipe dos santos, E. Bedwell, A. Jakhar, T.O. Costa barboza, M. Ardigueri |
3. OATSmobile: a Data Hub for Underground Sensor Communications and Rural IoTWireless Underground Sensor Networks (WUSNs) play a crucial role in precision agriculture by providing information about moisture levels, temperature, nutrient availability, and other relevant factors. However, the use of radio-frequency identification (RFID) devices for WUSNs has been relatively unexplored despite their benefits such as low power consumption. In this work, we develop a hardware platform, called OATSMobile, that enables radio-frequency identification (RFID) communications in WUSNs.... F.A. Castiblanco rubio, A. Arun, B. Lee, A. Balmos, S.

4. Avena: an Event-driven Software Framework for Informed Decisions and Actions in Cropping SystemsInteroperability is one of the enabling factors of real-time communications and data exchange between asynchronous data actors. Interoperability can be attained by introducing events to systems that extract data from consumed ground-truth event streams that utilize application-specific structures. Events are specific occurrences happening at a particular time and place. Event-data are observations of phenomena, or actions, as seen by different systems in Internet of Things (IoT) deployments, independent... F.A. Castiblanco rubio, M. Basir, A. Balmos, J. Krogmeier, D. Buckmaster |
5. Enabling Field-level Connectivity in Rural Digital Agriculture with Cloud-based LoRaWANThe widespread adoption of next-generation digital agriculture technologies in rural areas faces a critical challenge in the form of inadequate field-level connectivity. Traditional approaches to connecting people fall short in providing cost-effective solutions for many remote agricultural locations, exacerbating the digital divide. Current cellular networks, including 5G with millimeter wave technology, are urban-centric and struggle to meet the evolving digital agricultural needs, presenting... Y. Zhang, J. Bailey, A.

6. Proximal, Drone, and Satellite Sensors for In-season Variable Nitrogen Rate Application in Corn: a Comparative Study of Fixed-rate and Sensor-based ApproachesEffective nitrogen (N) management is essential for optimizing corn yield and enhancing agricultural sustainability. Traditional N application methods, typically uniform split pre-plant and in-season applications, often neglect the spatial and temporal variability of N requirements across different fields and years, potentially leading to N overuse. With the rise of precision agriculture technologies, it is crucial to reassess these conventional practices. This study had two main objectives: first,... A. Jakhar, A. Bhattarai, L. Bastos, G.

7. Comparing Proximal and Remote Sensors for Variable Rate Nitrogen Management in CottonSensing and variable rate technology are becoming increasingly important in precision agriculture. These technologies utilize sensors to monitor crop growth and health, enabling informed decisions such as diagnosing nitrogen (N) stress and applying variable rates of N. Sensor-based solutions allow for customized N applications based on plant needs and environmental factors. This approach has led to notable reductions in N application rates, minimized N losses by improving N use efficiency (NUE),... A. Bhattarai, A. Jakhar, L. Bastos, G.J. Scarpin |
