1. Evaluating Decision Systems For Using Variable Rates In Planting SoybeanIncreased interest in managing seeding rates within soybean fields is being driven by the advances in technologies and the need to increase productivity and economic returns. A wealth of previous research was focused on studying how different seeding rates affect soybean yields at small-plot scales. However, little is known how different site-specific factors influence the responsiveness of soybean to higher or lower plant population densities at field levels, especially across geographic... P.

2. Development of an Airborne Remote Sensing System for Aerial ApplicatorsAn airborne remote sensing system was developed and tested for recording aerial images of field crops, which were analyzed for variations of crop health or pest infestation. The multicomponent system consists of a multi-spectral camera system, a camera control system, and a radiometer for normalizing images. To overcome the difficulties currently associated with correlating imagery data with what is actually occurring on the ground (a process known as ground truthing); a hyperspectral reflectance... Y.

3. Detection of Citrus Canker in Orange Plantation Using Fluorescence SpectroscopyCitrus canker is a serious disease, caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. Citri bacteria, which infects orange trees (Citrus aurantium L.), leading to a large economic loss in the orange juice production. Brazil produces 50% of the industrialized orange juice in the world. Therefore, the early detection and control of such disease is important for Brazilian economy. However this task is very hard and so far it has been done by naked eye inspection of each tree. Our goal is to... E.C. Lins, J. Belasque junior, L.G. Marcassa |
