1. Crop Circle Sensor-Based Precision Nitrogen Management Strategy For Rice In Northeast ChinaGreenSeeker (GS) sensor-based precision N management strategy for rice has been developed, significantly improved N fertilizer use efficiency. Crop Circle ACS-470 (CC) active sensor is a new user configurable sensor, with a choice of 6 possible bands. The objectives of this study were to identify important vegetation indices obtained from CC sensor for estimating rice yield potential and rice responsiveness to topdressing N application and evaluate their potential improvements over GS normalized...

2. Time Series Study of Soybean Response Based on Adjusted Green Red IndexFour time-lapse cameras, Bushnell Nature View HD Camera (Bushnell, Overland Park, KS) were installed in a soybean field to track the response of soybean plants to solar radiation, air temperature, relative humidity, soil surface temperature, and soil temperature at 5-cm depth. The purpose was to confirm if visible spectroscopy can provide useful data for tracking the condition of crops and, if so, whether game and trail time-lapse cameras can serve as reliable crop sensing and monitoring devices....

3. Site-specific Irrigation of Peanuts on a Coastal Plain FieldIrrigator-Pro is an expert system that prescribes irrigation for corn (Zea mays L.), cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) and peanut (Arachis hypogaea). We conducted an experiment in 2007 to evaluate Irrigator-Pro as a tool for variable rate irrigation of peanut using a site-specific center pivot irrigation system. Treatments were irrigation of whole plots based on the expert system, irrigation of individual soils within plots based on the expert system, irrigation of individual... |
4. A Case for Increased Precision Pesticide Application Adoption in California Perennial Specialty Crop ProductionMaintaining high and quality crop yields in California’s diverse agriculture requires both good crop care through nutrient management and water management and effective crop protection through integrated pest management (IPM). Despite the promotion and adoption of non-chemical IPM practices in California such as sanitation and biological control, pesticide use remains inevitable in many cases. According to the 2021 California Pesticide Use Report, 37,444,331 kg of pesticide was used in 941,751... P.A. Larbi |
5. Field Validation of Airblast Spray Advisor Decision Support Web App for Citrus ApplicationsField conditions influencing the effectiveness of pesticide application in orchard and vineyard production systems are complex. As a result, growers and pesticide applicators grapple with how to make the right decisions for setting up the sprayer that will lead to the most efficient and effective outcomes. Airblast Spray Advisor, a decision support web app built on MATLAB was designed to assist with planning and evaluation of such applications when using airblast sprayers. It receives... P.A. Larbi |
