1. Optimizing Vineyard Irrigation Through The Automatic Resistivity Profiling (arp) Technology. The Proposal Of A Methodological ApproachIn Tuscany, central Italy, grape cultivation and wine production (i.e., Chianti DOCG, Brunello di Montalcino) are farming activities appreciated worldwide. Differently from the past, irrigation is allowed to meet the intense physiological stress that may occur during seasons affected by the increasing climate variability, in order to guarantee quality product and hence high market profitability in many vines areas. Most vineyards... P. Pagni, G.P. Ghinassi, M.P. Vieri |
2. X-Ray Computed Tomography For State Of The Art Plant And Root AnalysisDuring the last years, the formerly in medical applications established technique of X-ray computed tomography (CT) is used for non-destructive material analysis as well. Adapting this technique for the visualization and analysis of growth processes of plants above and underneath the soil enables new possibilities in the so called smart agriculture. Using State-of-the-art CT systems the computed 3D volume datasets allows the visualization and virtual analysis of hidden structures like roots... S. Reisinger, N. Uhlmann, R. Hanke, S. Gerth |
3. Variability in Corn Yield Response to Nitrogen Fertilizer in QuebecOptimizing nitrogen (N) fertilization is important to improve corn yield and to reduce N losses to the environment. The economic optimum nitrogen rate (EONR) is variable and depends on many factors, including weather conditions and crop management. The main objective of this study was to examine how grain corn yield response to N varies with planting date, soil texture and spring weather across sites and years in Monteregie, which is the most important with 64% of total area and 69%...
