1. Development Of An Hydraulic Penetrometer Data Acquisition SoftwareCurrently , in addition to increased production , the costs reduction are focused in order to increase efficiency in production, so the modern agriculture intent to find planting methods which extract the maximum possible data about the used area for making possible to do this preparation in the most appropriate manner, considering the shortcomings of evaluating these data. This method is contained in the concepts of an agricultural practice that has been steadily growing, the... I. Marasca, D.P. Casiero, S.P. Guerra, K.P. Lanças, E.R. Spadim |
2. Spatial Variability Of Soil Compaction In Annual Cycle Of Different Culture Of Cane Sugar Land Clay SandyThe assessment of soil compaction levels and choosing the best management system are very important in modern agriculture, aiming to prevent or at least restore their physical conditions to a satisfactory level. The renewal of sugar cane plantation happens on average every 5 or 6 years. The current way repeats a sequence compaction and decompaction events during successive cycles of sugarcane, which promotes breakdown of soil structure. During the harvesting and transportation, the... F.C. Masiero, B.B. Fernandes, S.P. Guerra, K.P. Lanças, I. Marasca |
3. Instrumented Blades With Automated Control Used In Chisel Plough Acting In Variable DepthsSoil compaction is a problem that affects most of the tilled areas of Brazil, being caused by several factors, such as overloading and intense machine traffic, use of unsuitable tires for applied load and inflation pressures outside the recommendation, machines in the field with the water content of the soil not recommended and several other problems. There are available several models and systems of measuring soil compaction in Brazil; however, the sensors of the... K.P. Lanças, J. Testa, B.B. Fernandes, T.M. Machado |
4. Study Of Spatio-Temporal Variation Of Soil Nutrients In Paddy Rice Planting FarmIt is significant to analysis the spatial and temporal variation of soil nutrients for precision agriculture especially in large-scale farms. For the data size of soil nutrients grows once after sampling which mostly by the frequency of one year or months, to discover the changing trends of exact nutrient would be instructive for the fertilization in the future. In this study, theories of GIS and geostatistics were used to characterize the spatial and temporal variability of soil... C. Wang, T. Chen, J. Dong, C. Li |
5. 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.
