1. The Most Sensitive Growth Stage To Quantify Nitrogen Stress In Sugarcane Using Active Crop Canopy SensorThe use of sensors that allow the application of nitrogen fertilizer at variable rate has been widely used by researchers in many agricultural crops, but without success in sugarcane, probably due to the difficulty of diagnosing the nutritional status of the crop for nitrogen (N). Active crop canopy sensors are based on the principle that the spectral reflectance curve of the leaves are modified by N level. Researchers in USA indicated that in-season N stress in corn can be detected... S.G. Castro, O.T. Kolln, H.S. Nakao, H.C. Franco, O. Braunbeck, P.S. Graziano magalhães, G.M. Sanches |
2. Evaluation Of A Sensor-Based Precision Irrigation System For Efficiency And To Monitor And Control Groundwater Over-Pumping In OmanOman is a country with a total area of 309,500 km2. However, cultivable land in Oman is estimated to be less than 2%, which amounts to about 6100 km2. More than 50 percent of the arable lands located in the northern coastal belt of Al Batinah region. The country with average annual rainfall around 100 mm, has limited natural fresh water resources and has been facing the serious problem of sea water intrusion into the scarce groundwater reserves due to undisciplined...

3. Spatial Variability of Soil Nutrients and Precision Nutrient Management for Targeted Yield Levels of Groundnut (Arachis Hypogaea L.)A field study was conducted during rabi / summer 2014-15 to know the spatial variability and precision nutrient management practices on targeted yield levels of groundnut. The experimental field has been delineated into 36 grids of 9 m x 9 m using geospatial technology. Soil samples from 0-15 cm were collected and analysed. Spatial variability exists for available nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium and they varied from 99 to 197 kg N, 12.1 to 64.0 kg P2O5 and 166... H. D.c, S. Dr., N. Dr., M. Giriyappa, S. T |
4. Precision Nutrient Management Through Drip Irrigation in Aerobic RiceA field experiment was conducted during kharif 2015 to asses the spatial variability and precision nutrient management through drip irrigation in aerobic rice at ZARS, GKVK, Bangalore. The experimental field has been delineated into 48 grids of 4.5 m x 4.5 m using geospatial technology. Soil samples from 0-15 cm depth were collected and analysed. There was spatial variability for available nitrogen (154 to 277 kg ha-1), phosphorous (45 to 152 kg ha-1) and potassium... N. Dr., S. T, M. Giriyappa, H. D.c, B. Patil, D. Prabhudeva, G. Kombali, S.
