1. Use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles to Inform Herbicide Drift AnalysisA primary advantage of unmanned aerial vehicle-based imaging systems is responsiveness. Herbicide drift events require prompt attention from a flexible collection system, making unmanned aerial vehicles a good option for drift analysis. In April 2015, a drift event was documented on a Mississippi farm. A combination of corn and rice fields exhibited symptomology consist with non-target injury from a tank mix of glyphosate and clethodim. An interesting observation was the... J.M.

2. Small UAS Integrated Sensing Tools for Abiotic Stress Monitoring in Irrigated Pinto BeansPrecision agriculture is a practical approach to maximize crop yield with optimal use of rapidly depleting natural resources. Availability of specific and high resolution crop data at critical growth stages is a key for real-time data driven decision support for precision agriculture management during the production season. The goal of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using small unmanned aerial system (UAS) integrated remote sensing tools to monitor the abiotic stress of eight irrigated... L. Khot, J.

3. Soybean Maturity Stage Estimation with Unmanned Aerial SystemsMany agronomic decisions in soybean production systems revolve around crop maturity. The primary objective of this research was to evaluate the ability of UAS to determine when soybeans have reached maturity stage sufficient for harvest aid application. A producer typically applies harvest aid chemicals when he or she perceives the crop has reached a critical level of maturity (R6.5) based on a subjective assessment. A convention is to apply harvest aids when 65% of soybean pods reach a mature... J.M. Prince czarnecki, L.L. Wasson, J.T. Irby, A.B. Scholtes, S.M. Carver |
4. Agriculture Machine Guidance Systems: Performance Analysis of Professional GNSS ReceiversGNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) plays nowadays a major role in different civilian activities and is a key technology enabling innovation in different market sectors. For instance, GNSS-enabled solutions are widespread within the Precision Agriculture and, among them, applications in the field of machinery guidance are commonly employed to optimize typical agriculture practices. The scope of this paper is to present the outcomes of the agriculture testing campaign performed,... J. Capolicchio, D. Mennuti, I. Milani, M. Fortunato, R. Petix, J. Reyes gonzalez, M. Sunkevic |
5. Advanced Classification of Beetle Doppelgängers Using Siamese Neural Networks and Imaging TechniquesThe precise identification of beetle species, especially those that have similar macrostructure and physical characteristics, is a challenging task in the field of entomology. The term "Beetle Doppelgängers" refers to species that exhibit almost indistinguishable macrostructural characteristics, which can complicate tasks in ecological studies, conservation efforts, and pest management. The core issue resides in their striking similarity, frequently confusing both experts and automated... P.R. Armstrong, L.O. Pordesimo, K. Siliveru, A.R. Gerken, R.O. Serfa juan |
