2. Optimizing N, P, K, And S Application Across Landscapes In The Northern Great Plains Using The Plant Root Simulator (PRS™ ) Technology.Early papers on precision farming focused on variable rate fertilization and variable spraying technology (Roberts, 1996). The adoption of this 1st round of precision farming was acknowledged to be a “dead horse” (Mangold, 2000). These authors put forward the notion that farmers needed better tools to decide if the intensive management of fertilizer would result in a significant reduction in input costs, or a significant increase in crop yields. ...

3. A Low-tech Approach to Manage Within Field Variability – Toward a Territorial Scale ApplicationManaging within field variability is promising to achieve European objectives of sustainability in crop production. Technological development has allowed to precisely characterize fields heterogeneity in space and time. However, learnings from low adoption of yield maps in west-European context have highlighted the importance of reliable methods to support decisions. Blackmore et al. designed a delineation method considering yield as an integrative variable that reflects spatial and temporal... A. Lenoir, B. Vandoorne, B. Dumont |
