1. Assembly of an Ultrasound Sensors System for Mapping of Sugar Cane HeightIn Precision Agriculture, the use of sensors provides faster data collection on plant, soil, and climate, allowing collecting larger sample sets with better information quality. The objective of this study was the development of a system for plant height measurement in order to mapping of sugar cane crop, so that regions with plant growth variation and grow failures could be identified...

2. Optimizing Site-Specific Adaptive Management Using A Probabilistic Framework: Evaluating Model Performance Using Historic DataAgricultural producers are tasked with managing crop yield responses to nitrogen (N) within systems that have high levels of spatial (biophysical), climatic, and price uncertainty. To date, the outcome of most variable rate application (VRA) research has focused on the spatial dimension, proposing optimal fertilizer prescription maps that can be applied year after year. However, temporally static prescriptions can result in suboptimal outcomes, particularly if they do... L.J. Rew, B.D. Maxwell, P.G. Lawrence |
3. Post-Harvest Quality Evaluation System On Conveyor Belt For Mechanically Harvested CitrusRecently, a machine vision technology has shown its popularity for automating visual inspection. Many studies proved that the machine vision system can successfully estimate external qualities of fruit as good as manual inspection. However, introducing mechanical harvesters to citrus industry caused the following year’s yield loss due to the loss of immature young citrus. In this study, a machine vision system on a conveyor belt was developed to inspect mechanically... W. Lee, R. Ehsani, F. Roka, D. Choi, C. Yang |
4. In-season Nitrogen Prediction Evaluation Using Airborne Imagery with AI Techniques in Commercial Potato ProductionIn modern agriculture, timely and precise nitrogen (N) monitoring is essential to optimize resource management and improve trade benefits. Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a staple food in many regions of the world, and improving its production is inevitable to ensure food security and promote related industries. Traditional methods of assessing nitrogen are labour-intensive, time-consuming, and require subjective observations. To address these limitations, a combination of multispectral... B. Javed, A.

5. Within Field Cotton Yield Prediction Using Temporal Satellite Imagery Combined with Deep LearningCrop yield prediction at the field scale plays a pivotal role in enhancing agricultural management, a vital component in addressing global food security challenges. Regional or county-level data, while valuable for broader agricultural planning, often lacks the precision required by farmers for effective and timely field management. The primary obstacle in utilizing satellite imagery to forecast crop yields at the field level lies in its low temporal and spatial resolutions. This study aims to... R. Karn, O. Adedeji, B.P. Ghimire, A. Abdalla, V. Sheng, G. Ritchie, W. Guo |
6. Assessment of Soil Spatial Properties and Variability Using a Portable VIS-NIRS Soil Probe for On-farm Precision ExperimentationAssessing the spatial variability of soil properties represents an important issue for on-farm sustainable management owing to high cost of sampling densities. Actual methods of soil properties measurement are based on conventional soil sampling of one sample per ha, followed by laboratory analysis, requiring many soil extraction processes and harmful chemicals. This conventional laboratory analysis does not allow exploring spatial variation of soil properties at desired fine spatial scale. Thus,... A. Cambouris, M. Duchemin, E. Lord, N. Ziadi, B.

7. Simulating Climate Change Impacts on Cotton Yield in the Texas High PlainsCrop yield prediction enables stakeholders to plan farming practices and marketing. Crop models can predict crop yield based on cropping system and practices, soil, and other environmental factors. These models are being used for decision support in agriculture in a variety of ways. Cultivar selection, water and nutrient input optimization, planting date selection, climate change analysis and yield prediction are some of the promising area of applications of the models in field level farm management....
