1. Adoption and Tendencies of Precision Agriculture Technologies in the Tocantins State, BrazilAlthough precision agriculture is widely used throughout Brazilian crop production, it has not been used to increase the efficiency use of agricultural inputs. Besides, technologies available have not been... L. Bortolon, E. Borghi, A. Luchiari Junior, E.S. Bortolon, A.A. Freitas, R.Y. Inamasu, J.C. Avanzi |
2. Adoption Level Of Precision Agriculture For Brazilian Farmers - 2011/12 Crop YearAlthough Precision Agriculture (PA) concepts and technologies are widespread in Brazil, its application still little used in some important crop production regions. The purpose of this study was to survey the current adoption level of PA by printed and online questionnaire. We started making a specific questionnaire to farmers and PA service companies using some technology related to PA. The questionnaires were developed based on the methodology of Whipker and Akridge (2009),... E. Borghi, A. Luchiari Junior, L. Bortolon, E.S. Bortolon, R.Y. Inamasu, A.C. Bernardi, J.C. Avanzi |
3. Real Time Precision Irrigation with Variable Setpoint for Strawberry to Generate Water SavingsWater is a precious resource that is becoming increasingly scarce as the population grows and water resources are depleted in some locations or under increased control elsewhere, due to local availability or groundwater contamination issues. It obviously affects strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) production in populated areas and water cuts are being imposed to many strawberry growers to save water, with limited information on the impact on crop yield. Precision irrigation technologies are... J. Caron, L. Anderson, G. Sauvageau, L. Gendron |
