1. An Inter-connection Model Between Standard Zigbee And Isobus Network (ISO11783)The typical five-step cyclical process of precision agriculture includes soil and environment data collection, diagnosis, data analysis, precision field correction operation and evaluations. Usually, some steps are executed in field, others in the farm office and others in both. This can result in a complex system and consequently in waste of time and high cost in equipment, tools and workmanship. To simplify this process, the challenge is running... M.F. Barros, C.E. Cugnasca, J. Congona benavente |
2. Changes Of Data Sampling Procedure To Avoid Energy And Data Losses During Microclimates Monitoring With Wireless Sensor Networks... J.C. Benavente, C.E. Cugnasca, M.F. Barros, H.P. Santos, G. Http://icons.paqinteractive.com/16x16/ac |
3. Pesticide Drift Control with Wireless Sensor NetworksPrecision Agriculture is an agricultural practice that uses technology based on the principle of variability. The geographically referenced data implement the process of agricultural automation so as to dose fertilizers and pesticides. The efficient application of low cost pesticides without contamination the environment is an agricultural production challenge. The main effect to be avoided during application is pesticide drift. To minimize it is important to know the environmental conditions,... C.E. Cugnasca, I.M. Santos |
4. Radio Frequency Identification For Implementing Traceability In The Cotton Production In The Brazilian MidwestAccording to the International Cotton Advisory Committee - ICAC projection for the fiber in cotton production for the crop year 2012/2013 is expected to reach an amount of 15.19 million tons , according to a forecast released in August 2012 . In the Brazilian context , according to the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply of Brazil cotton cultivation in Brazil has grown especially in the Midwest . In particular , exports of cotton fiber increased twice in one season in 2003/2004... C. Santos, E.O. Weschter, M.A. Dota, C.E. Cugnasca |
5. Spectral Vegetation Indices to Quantify In-field Soil Moisture VariabilityAgriculture is the largest consumer of water globally. As pressure on available water resources increases, the need to exploit technology in order to produce more food with less water becomes crucial. The technological hardware requisite for precise water delivery methods such as variable rate irrigation is commercially available. Despite that, techniques to formulate a timely, accurate prescription for those systems are inadequate. Spectral vegetation indices, especially Normalized Difference... J. Siegfried, R. Khosla, L.

6. Invasive and Non-Invasive Technology for Measuring Water Content of Crop Leaves in Greenhouse HorticultureMoisture status in the crop is closely related to various physiological activities of the crop. If we can measure the moisture status in the crop in real time, we can understand the photosynthetic activity, which is an important physiological activity for growing crops, and the movement of the product from photosynthesis. Therefore, we verified it is possible to measure water content of crop leaves nondestructively using invasive method and non-invasive method. As a non-invasive measurement method,... H. Umeda, K.

7. AgronomoBot: A Smart Answering Chatbot Applied to Agricultural Sensor NetworksMobile devices advanced adoption has fostered the creation of various messaging applications providing convenience and practicality in general communication. In this sense, new technologies arise bringing automatic, continuous and intelligent features for communication through messaging applications by using web robots, also called Chatbots. Those are computer programs that simulate a real conversation between humans to answer questions or do tasks, giving the impression that the person is talking... G.M. Mostaço, L.B. Campos, C.E.

8. Enhancing Spatial Resolution of Maize Grain Yield DataGrain yield data is frequently used for precision agriculture management purposes and as a parameter for evaluating agronomy experiments, but unexpected challenges sometimes interfere with harvest plans or cause total losses. The spatial detail of modern grain yield monitoring data is also limited by combine header width, which could be nearly 14 m in some crops. Remote sensing data, such as multispectral imagery collected via satellite and unmanned aerial systems (UAS), could be used to... J. Siegfried, R. Khosla, D. Mandal, W. Yilma |
