1. Estimation of Nitrogen of Rice in Different Growth Stages Using Tetracam Agriculture Digital CameraMany methods are available to monitor nitrogen content of rice during various growth stages. However, this monitoring still requires a quick, simple, accurate and inexpensive technique that needs to be developed. In this study, Tetracam Agriculture Digital Camera (ADC) was used to acquire high spatial and temporal resolution in order to determine the status of nitrogen (N) and predict the grain yield of rice (Oriza sativa L.). In this study, 12 pots of rice with four different N treatments (0, 125,... A. Gholizadeh , M. Mohd soom , M. Saberioon |
2. Potential of Visible and Near Infrared Spectroscopy for Prediction of Paddy Soil Physical PropertiesA fast and convenient soil analytical technique is needed for soil quality assessment and precision soil management. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of Visible (Vis) and Near-infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIRS) to predict paddy soil physical properties in a typical Malaysian paddy field. To assess the utility of spectroscopy for soil physical characteristics prediction, we used 118 soil samples for laboratory analysis and optical measurement in the Vis-NIR region... A. Gholizadeh, M.

3. Spatial-temporal Management Zones For Biomass MoistureBiomass handling operations (harvesting, raking, collection, and transportation) are critical operations within the agricultural production system since they constitute the first link in the biomass supply chain, a fact of substantial importance considering the increasingly involvement of biomass in bio-refinery and bio-energy procedures. Nevertheless, the inherent uncertainty, imposed by the interaction between environmental, biological, and machinery factors, makes the available scheduling... S. Fountas, D. Bochtis, C. Sorensen, O. Green, R. J, T. Bartzanas |
4. Visible And Near-Infrared Spectroscopy For Monitoring Potentially Toxic Elements In Reclaimed Dumpsite Soils Of The Czech RepublicDue to rapid economic development, high levels of potentially harmful elements and heavy metals are continuously being released into the brown coal mining dumpsites of the Czech Republic. Elevated metal contents in soils not only dramatically impact the soil quality, but also due to their persistent nature and long biological half-lives, contaminant elements can accumulate in the food chain and can eventually endanger human health. Conventional methods for investigating potentially... L. Borùvka, M. Saberioon, R. Vašát, A. Gholizadeh |
5. Site-Specific Variability Of Grape Composition And Wine QualityPrecision Viticulture (PV) is the application of site-specific tools to delineate management zones in vineyards for either targeting inputs or harvesting blocks according to grape maturity status. For the creation of management zones, soil properties, topography, canopy characteristics and grape yield are commonly measured during the growing season. The majority of PV studies in winegrapes have focused on the relation of soil and vine-related spatial data with grape composition... S. Fountas, Y. Kotseridis, A. Balafoutis, E. Anastasiou, S.

6. Memory Based Learning: A New Data Mining Approach to Model and Interpret Soil Texture Diffuse Reflectance SpectraSuccessful estimation of spectrally active soil texture with Visible and Near-Infrared (VNIR, 400-1200 nm) and Short-Wave-Infrared (SWIR, 1200-2500 nm) spectroscopy depends mostly on the selection of an appropriate data mining algorithm. The aims of this paper were: to compare different data mining algorithms including Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR), which is the most common technique in soil spectroscopy, Support Vector Machine Regression (SVMR), Boosted Regression Trees (BRT), and Memory...

7. EZZone - An Online Tool for Delineating Management ZonesManagement zones are a pillar of Precision Agriculture research. Spatial variability is apparent in all fields, and assessing this variability through measurement devices can lead to better management decisions. The use of Geographic Information Systems for agricultural management is common, especially with management zones. Although many algorithms have been produced in research settings, no online software for management zone delineation exists. This research used a common... G. Vellidis, C. Lowrance, S. Fountas, V.

8. Calculating the Water Deficit of Apple Orchard by Means of Spatially Resolved ApproachIn semi-humid climate, spatially resolved analysis of water deficit was carried out in apple orchard (Malus x domestica 'Pinova'). The meteorological data were recorded daily by a weather station. The apparent soil electrical conductivity (ECa) was measured at field capacity, and twenty soil samples in 30 cm were gathered for texture, bulk density, and gravimetric soil water content analyses. Furthermore, ten trees were defoliated in different ECa regions in order to estimate the leaf... N. Tsoulias, D. Paraforos, N. Brandes, S. Fountas, M. Zude-sasse |
9. 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 |
