1. Integrated Land Management – ICT Solutions & Business ModelsPROGIS and Adcon have developed a comprehensive solution to address the major challenges of our time: improve daily agricultural practice on all levels, increase and secure food supplies, take care of the environment and manage ever increasing risks, while last not least assist in fighting global warming. In all of the above agriculture is playing a key role, but the methods of the past will no longer be adequate. Information technology is the name... W. Mayer, B. Pacher |
2. Misalignment Between Sugar Cane Transshipment Trailers and TractorSugarcane production system is dependent on a continuous cutting and regrowth of cane plants from their roots, on which traffic should be avoided to ensure the physiological integrity of regrowth and productivity. This need for accuracy in sugarcane machine traffic boosted the adoption of automated steering systems, especially on harvesters. Tractors with the transshipment trailers, which continually accompany the harvesters in the field, yet do not adopt it or use technology with lower... B.P. Passalaqua, J. Molin, J. Salvi, A.P.

3. Utilizing Space-based Technology for Cotton Irrigation SchedulingAccurate soil moisture content measurements are vital to precision irrigation management. Electromagnetic sensors such as capacitance and time domain reflectometry have been widely used for measuring soil moisture content for decades. However, to estimate average soil moisture content over a large area, a number of ground-based in-situ sensors would need to be installed, which would be expensive and labor intensive. Remote sensing using the microwave spectrum (such as GPS signals) has been used... A. Khalilian, X. Qiao, J.O. Payero, J.M. Maja, C.V. Privette, Y.J. Han |
