1. Monitoring Soybean Root Development under Till-System Management (TSM) at Dry-Farming ConditionsRoot system development is very importance for highest soybean (Glycine max L.) grain yield, especially under arid and semiarid conditions. In order to tillage system management (TSM) for achieved to the optimum yield of soybean in dry-farming conditions... H. Aliabadi farahani, B. Sani |
2. Revising Nitrogen Recommendations For Wheat In Response To The Need For Support Of Variable-rate Nitrogen ApplicationSampling studies in North Dakota conducted from 1994 to 2003 showed that variable-rate N application could be practically directed with zone soil sampling. Results from variable-rate N studies using zone soil sampling were often less than rewarding due in part to the use of a whole-field predicted yield-based formula for developing the N recommendation in each zone. Nitrogen rate studies on spring wheat and durum were established in 2005 through 2009 to reexamine N recommendations. The results... D. Franzen, G. Endres, R. Ashley, J. Staricka, J. Lukach, K.

3. Is A Nitrogen-rich Reference Needed For Canopy Sensor-based Corn Nitrogen Applications?The nitrogen (N) supplying capacity of the soil available to support corn (Zea mays L.) production can be highly variable both among and within fields. In recent years, canopy reflectance sensing has been investigated for in-season assessment of crop N health and fertilization. Typically the procedure followed compares the crop in an area known to be non-limiting in N (called a N-rich area) to the crop in areas inadequately fertilized. Measurements from the two areas are used to calculate... N.R. Kitchen, K.S. Suddth, S.T. Drummond |
4. UAV-based Crop Scouting for Precision Nutrient ManagementPrecision agriculture – is one of the most substantial markets for the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Mounted on the UAVs, sensors and cameras enable rapid screening of large numbers of experimental plots to identify crop growth habits that contribute to final yield and quality in a variety of environments. Wheat is one of the Idaho’s most important cereal crops grown in 42 of 44 Idaho counties. We are working on establishing a UAV-based methodology for in-season prediction of wheat... O.S. Walsh, K.

5. An Economic-Theory-Based Approach to Management Zone DelineationIn both the academic and popular literatures on precision agriculture technology, a management zoneis generally defined as an area in a field within which the optimal input application strategy is spatially uniform. The characteristics commonly chosen to delineate management zones, both in the literature and in commercial practice, are yield and variables associated with yield. But microeconomic theory makes clear that economically optimal input application strategies... B. Edge |
6. High Throughput Phenotyping of the Energy Cane Crop UAV-based LiDAR, Multispectral and RGB DataEnergy cane is a hybrid of sugarcane cultivated for their high biomass and fiber instead of sugar. It is used for production of biofuels and as feedstock for animals. As a relatively new crop, accurate knowledge of biophysical parameters such as height and biomass of different genotypes are pertinent to cultivar development. Such knowledge is also crucial to manage crop health, understand response to environmental effects, optimize harvest schedules, and estimate bioenergy yield. Nonetheless,... B. Ghansah, I.
