2. Prediction of Nitrogen Needs with Nitrogen-rich Strips and Ramped Nitrogen StripsBoth nitrogen rich strips and ramped nitrogen strips have been used to estimate topdress nitrogen needs for winter wheat based on in-season optical reflectance data. The ramped strip system places a series of small plots in each field with increasing levels of nitrogen to determine the application rate at which predicted yield response to nitrogen reaches a plateau. The nitrogen-rich strip system uses a nitrogen fertilizer optimization algorithm based on optical reflectance measures from the nitrogen-rich... D.C. Roberts, B.W. Brorsen, W.R. Raun, J.B. Solie |

6. Analytical and Technological Advancements for Soybean Quality Mapping and Economic DifferentiationIn the past, measuring soybean protein and oil content required the collection of soybean seed samples and laboratory analyses. Modern on-the-go near-infrared (NIR) sensing technologies during the harvest and proximal remote sensing (aerial and satellite imagery) before harvest time can be used to provide an early estimate of seed quality levels, benchmark in-season predictions with at-harvest final seed quality and enable seed differentiation for farmers leading to better marketing strategies. Recent... A. Prestholt, C. Hernandez, I. Ciampitti , P. Kyveryga |
7. Economic Potential of IPMwise – a Generic Decision Support System for Integrated Weed Management in 4 CountriesReducing use and dependency on pesticides in Denmark has been driven by political action plans since the 1980ies, and a series of nationally funded accompanying R&D programs were completed in the period 1989-2006. One result of these programs was a decision support system (DSS) for integrated weed management. The 4th generation (2016) of the agro-biological models and IT-tools in this DSS, named IPMwise. The concept of IPMwise is to systematically exploit that: occurrence... P. Rydahl, O. Boejer, K. Torresen, J.M. Montull, A. Taberner, H. Bückmann, A. Verschwele |
8. Developing a Wheat Precision Nitrogen Management Strategy by Combining Satellite Remote Sensing Data and WheatGrow ModelPrecision nitrogen (N) management (PNM) is becoming increasingly popular due to its ability to synchronize crop N demand with soil N supply spatiotemporally.
