1. Validation of Variable Rate Spray Decision Rules in Intricate Micro-Metrological ConditionsThis study evaluated validity of modified spray decision rules formed to operate axial fan airblast sprayer retrofitted for use in citrus production. The sprayer was field tested in a spraying... L.R. Khot, R. Ehsani, G. Albrigo, J. campoy, C. Wellington, W. Swen, J. Camergo neto |
2. Claypan Depth Effect on Soil Phosphorus and Potassium DynamicsUnderstanding the effects of fertilizer addition and crop removal on long-term change in spatially-variable soil test P (STP) and soil test K (STK) is crucial for maximizing the use of grower inputs on claypan soils. Using apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) to estimate topsoil depth (or depth to claypan, DTC) within fields could help capture the variability and guide site-specific applications of P and K. The objective of this study was to determine if DTC derived from ECa... L. Conway, M. Yost, N. Kitchen, K. Sudduth, B. Myers |
3. Melon Classification and Segementation Using Low Cost Remote Sensing Data DronesObject recognition represents currently one of the most developing and challenging areas of the Computer Vision. This work presents a systematic study of various relevant parameters and approaches allowing semi-automatic or automatic object detection, applied onto a study case of melons on the field to be counted. In addition it is of a cardinal interest to obtain the quantitative information about performance of the algorithm in terms of metrics the suitability whereof is determined by the final... T.

4. Almond Canopy Detection and Segmentation Using Remote Sensing Data DronesThe development of Unmanned Aerial System (UAV) makes it possible to take high resolution images of trees easily. These images could help better manage the orchard. However, more research is necessary to extract useful information from these images. For example, irrigation schedule and yield prediction both rely on accurate measurement of canopy size. In this paper, a workflow is proposed to count trees and measure the canopy size of each individual tree. The performances of three different methods... T. Zhao, M. Cisneros, Y. Chen, Q. Yang, Y.

5. Optimizing Corn Seeding Depth by Soil Texture to Achieve Uniform StandCorn (Zea mays L.) yield potential can be affected by uneven emergence. Corn emergence is influenced by both management and environmental conditions. Varying planting depth and rate as determined by soil characteristics could help improve emergence uniformity and grain yield. This study was conducted to assess varying corn seeding depths on plant emergence uniformity and yield on fine- and coarse-textured soils. Research was conducted on alluvial soil adjacent to the Missouri river with contrasting... S. Stewart, N. Kitcken, M. Yost, L. Conway |
