1. Understanding Temporal and Spatial Variation of Soil Available Nutrients with Satellite Remote SensingSoil available nutrients are the key determinants in crop growth, field stable output and ecological balance. The soil nutrients loss and surplus can strongly influence the stability of field ecological environment and cause unnecessary pollution. Hence, optimizing the status of soil available nutrients status has significant ecological and economic significance. With the advancement of mechanized farming and control technologies, soil available nutrients can be optimize by variable rate fertilization.... J. Meng, H. Fang, Z. Cheng |
2. Developing an Integrated Approach for Estimation of Soil Available Nutrient Content Using the Modified WOFOST Model and Time-Series Multispectral UAV ObservationsSoil available nutrient (SAN) plays an important role in crop growth, yield formation, and plant-soil-atmosphere system exchange. Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) are recognized as three primary nutrients in crop production. Accurate and timely information on SAN conditions at key crop growth stages is important for developing beneficial management practices. While traditional field sampling can obtain reliable information for limited number of sites, it is infeasible for spatially... Z. Cheng, J. Meng, J. Shang, J. Liu, B. Qian, Q. Jing |
3. Optimising Nitrogen Use in Cereal Crops Using Site-Specific Management Classes and Crop Reflectance SensorsThe relative cost of Nitrogen (N) fertilisers in a cropping input budget, the 33% Nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) seen in global cereal grain production and the potential environmental costs of over-application are leading to changes in the application rates and timing of N fertiliser. Precision agriculture (PA) provides tools for producers to achieve greater synchrony between N supply and crop N demand. To help achieve these goals this research has explored the use of management classes derived... B. Whelan, M. Fajardo |
