1. Variability in Soil Water Content and Sensor-Based Irrigation Scheduling for Protected Ginseng ProductionGinseng is one of important medicinal plants, especially in Asian countries including Korea. Korean ginseng is mostly grown in sun-block facility on ridges, and irrigation would be critical for better production. Conventionally no irrigation or timer-controlled irrigation based on experience was practiced, and variability of... J. Cho, B. Cho, S. Chung |
2. Soil Salinity, Sand Encroachment and Erosion as Indicators of Land Degradation in Harad Center, Saudi ArabiaThis study presents the main results of a thorough evaluation of land degradation in Saudi Arabia (Harad Centre). The study was carried out in 2006-2007 as part of a project aimed to study features and causes of land degradation in Saudi Arabia. The study area occupies... O.A. Mahjoub, A.S. Modaihsh |
3. Soil Attributes Estimation Based on Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy and Topographic VariabilityThe local management of crop areas, which is the basic concept of precision agriculture, is essential for increasing crop yield. In this context, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and digital elevation modelling (DEM) appears as an important technique for determining soil properties, on an adequate scale to agricultural management, enabling faster and less costly evaluations in soil studies. The objective of this work was to evaluate the use of DRS together with topographic parameters for... J.V. Fontenelli, L.R. Amaral, J.M. Demattê, P.G. Magalhães, G. Sanches |
