1. Liquid Flow Control Requirements for Crop Canopy Sensor-Based N Management in Corn: A Project SENSE Case StudyWhile on-farm adoption of crop canopy sensors for directing in-season nitrogen (N) application has been slow, research focused on these systems has been significant for decades. Much emphasis has been placed on developing and testing algorithms based on sensor output to predict N needs, but little information has been published regarding liquid flow control requirements on equipment used in conjunction with these sensing systems. Addition of a sensor-based system to a standard spray rate controller... J. Luck, J. Parrish, L. Thompson, B. Krienke, K. Glewen, R.B. Ferguson |
2. The Guelph Plot Analyzer: Semi-Automatic Extraction of Small-Plot Research Data from Aerial ImagerySmall-plot trials are the foundation of open-field agricultural research because they strike a balance between the control of an artificial environment and the realism of field-scale production. However, the size and scope of this research field is often limited by the ability to collect data, which is limited by access to labour. Remote sensing has long been investigated to allocate labour more efficiently, therefore enabling the rapid collection of data. Imagery collected by unmanned aerial... J. Nederend, D. Drover, B.

3. Vegetation Coverage Specific Flower Density Estimation in Blackberry Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Remote SensingThe effective management of agricultural systems relies on the utilization of accurate data collection techniques to analyze essential crop attributes to enhance productivity and ensure profits. Data collection procedures for specialty horticultural crops are mostly subjective, time consuming and may not be accurate for management decisions in both phenotypic studies and crop production. Reliable and repeatable standard methods are therefore needed to capture and calculate attributes of horticultural... A. Tagoe, C. Koparan, A. Poncet, D.M. Johnson, M. Worthington, D. Wang |
4. Growth-Stage and Hourly Modeling of Non-Stressed Soybean Canopy Temperature Using High-Frequency Proximal Thermal SensingCanopy temperature (Tc) sensing provides a proximal, non-destructive approach for monitoring crop water status. It supports irrigation scheduling through thermal indices such as the Crop Water Stress Index (CWSI) and Degrees Above Non-Stressed (DANS), both of which require accurate estimation of non-stressed canopy temperature (Tcns) (Nakabuye et al., 2022). Maintaining a continuously non-stressed reference treatment to determine Tcns is operationally difficult, motivating development of weather-based... |
