1. Fluorescence Imaging Spectroscopy Applied To Citrus DiseasesDiseases are one of the most serious threats for citrus production worldwide. Sao Paulo, Brazil and Florida, USA, are the most important citrus producers and, both, are making efforts for citrus diseases control. Citrus canker is one of the serious diseases, caused by the Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri bacteria, that infects citrus trees and relatives, causing a large economic loss in the citrus juice production. Another important disease affecting the citrus production worldwide is the Huanglongbing... C. Wetterich, J. Belasque jr., L. Marcassa |
2. Variety Effects on Cotton Yield Monitor CalibrationWhile modern grain yield monitors are able to harvest variety and hybrid trials without imposing bias, cotton yield monitors are affected by varietal properties. With planters capable of site-specific planting of multiple varieties, it is essential to better understand cotton yield monitor calibration. Large-plot field experiments were conducted with two southeast Missouri cotton producers to compare yield monitor-estimated weights and observed weights in replicated variety trials. Two replications... E. Vories, A. Jones, G. Stevens, C. Meeks |
3. Long-range Bluetooth Smart Stakes and High-gain Receivers for High-density Sensing in Precision AgricultureTo achieve the goals of precision agriculture, accurate spatial-temporal soil information is needed, especially because soil properties can change within and between growing seasons. While remote sensing can provide high coverage, some soil properties must be measured in situ. Current existing industry solutions are too expensive per unit to deploy in sufficiently high density for dynamic management zones, creating a need for low-cost sensor networks.... S. Craven, C.
