1. On-the-go Condition Mapping For Harvesting MachineryIn recent years control systems have been used to alleviate the task of harvesting machinery operators. Automation allows the operator to spend more time on other tasks such as coordinating transport. Moreover, such control systems guarantee constant performance throughout the day whereas an operator gets tired. The perfect control system anticipates on the harvest condition, just like an experienced operator would. The operator makes a visual assessment of the condition in terms of... T. Coen, J.

2. Soil Microbial Communities Have Distinct Spatial Patterns in Agricultural FieldsSoil microbial communities mediate many important soil processes in agricultural fields, however their spatial distribution at distances relevant to precision agriculture is poorly understood. This study examined the soil physico-chemical properties and topographic features controlling the spatial distribution of soil microbial communities in a commercial potato field in eastern Canada using next generation sequencing. Soil was collected from a transect (1100 m) with 83 sampling points in a landscape... B. Zebarth, C. Goyer, S. Neupane, S. Li, A. Mills, S. Whitney, A. Cambouris, I. Perron |
