1. Design Of A Data Acquisition System For Weighing LysimetersThe weighing lysimeter is an important tool for scientists to conduct... C. Zhang, X. Xue, L. Chen, W. Huang |
2. Application Of Algebra Hyper-curve Neural Network In Soil Nutrient Spatial InterpolationStudy on spatial variability of soil nutrient is the basis of soil nutrient management in precision agriculture. For study on application potential and characteristics of algebra hyper-curve neural network(AHNN) in delineating soil properties spatial variability and interpolation, total 956 soil samples were taken for alkaline hydrolytic nitrogen measurement from a 50 hectares field using 20m*20m grid sampling. The test data set consisted of 100 random samples extracting... L. Chen, C. Zhao, W. Huang, T. Chen, J. Wang |
3. We Want You: Contributing Your Expertise To A Community Of Practice (COP)eXtension Communities of Practice (CoP’s) are online collaborative networks of subject matter experts. Community of Practice as a method are not new, almost everyone has come across one by now, but you may not have realized what you were looking at was a collaborative effort. CoP’s exist on sites like Consumer Reports, in CNET, and many other places where groups of experts work to create the content that populates a website. Communities are self-forming,... A. Hays |
4. Adjustment of Corn Population and Nitrogen Fertilization Based on Management ZonesThe main objective of this study was to adjust the corn population and nitrogen fertilization according to management zones, based on past grain yield maps (seven of soybean and three of corn) and soil electrical conductivity. The study was carried out in Não-Me-Toque, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, and it was conducted in a factorial strip blocks with 3 repetitions in each management zone, being the treatments: corn populations (56000, 64000, 72000, 80000 and 88000 plants ha-1),...

5. Shared Protocols and Data Template in Agronomic TrialsDue to the overlap of many disciplines and the availability of novel technologies, modern agriculture has become a wide, interdisciplinary endeavor, especially in Precision Agriculture. The adoption of a standard format for reporting field experiments can help researchers to focus on the data rather than on re-formatting and understanding the structure of the data. This paper describes how a European consortium plans to: i) create a “handbook” of protocols for reporting definitions,... D. Cammarano, D. Drexler, P. Hinsinger, P. Martre, X. Draye, A. Sessitsch, N. Pecchioni, J. Cooper, W. Helga, A. Voicu |
6. Real Time Precision Irrigation with Variable Setpoint for Strawberry to Generate Water SavingsWater is a precious resource that is becoming increasingly scarce as the population grows and water resources are depleted in some locations or under increased control elsewhere, due to local availability or groundwater contamination issues. It obviously affects strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) production in populated areas and water cuts are being imposed to many strawberry growers to save water, with limited information on the impact on crop yield. Precision irrigation technologies are... J. Caron, L. Anderson, G. Sauvageau, L. Gendron |
7. Assessing Soybean Water Stress Patterns and ENSO Occurrence in Southern Brazil: an in Silico ApproachWater stress (WS) is one of the most important abiotic stresses worldwide, responsible for crop yield penalties and impacting food supply. The frequency and intensity of weather stresses are relevant to delimitating agricultural regions. In addition, El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) has been employed to forecast the occurrence of seasonal WS. Lastly, planting date and cultivar maturity selection are key management strategies for boosting soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) yield... A. Carcedo, L.F. Antunes de almeida, T. Horbe, G.
