1. On-the-go Measurements of pH in Tropical SoilThe objective of this study was to assess the performance of a mobile sensor platform with ion-selective antimony electrodes (ISE) to determine pH on-the-go in a Brazilian tropical soil. The field experiments were carried out in a Cambisol in Piracicaba-SP, Brazil. To create pH variability, increasing doses (0, 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 Mg ha-1) of lime were added on the experimental plots (25 x 10 m) one year before the data acquisitions. To estimate soil pH levels we used a Mobile Sensor Platform... M.T. Eitelwein, R.G. Trevisan, A.F. Colaço, M.R. Vargas, J.P. Molin |
2. Sensor Comparison for Yield Monitoring Systems of Small-Sized Potato HarvestersYield monitoring of potato in real time during harvesting would be useful for farmers, providing instant yield and income information. In the study, potentials of candidate sensors were evaluated with different yield measurement techniques for yield monitoring system of small-sized potato harvesters. Mass-based (i.e., load cell) and volume-based (i.e., CCD camera) sensors were selected and tested under laboratory conditions. For mass-based sensing, an impact plate instrumented with load cells...
