1. Influence Of Phosphorus Application With Or Without Nitrogen On Oat (Avena Sativa) Grass Nutritive Value And In Situ Digestion Kinetics In Buffalo BullsFodder is the mainstay of ruminant production in majority of developing countries. However, its low yield and poor quality are considered considerable constrains which impede ruminant productivity. Fodder production and its nutritive value can be enhanced by ensuring adequate supply and utilization of nutrients... M.U. Nisa, I. Babar, M. Sarwar, N.A. Tauqir, M.A. Shahzad |
2. Determination Of Crop Injury From Aerial Application Of Glyphosate Using Vegetation Indices And GeostatisticsInjury to crops caused by off-target drift of glyphosate can seriously reduce growth and yield, and is of great concern to farmers and aerial applicators. Determining an indirect method for assessing the levels and extent of crop injury could support management decisions. The objectives of this study were to evaluate multiple vegetation indices (VIs) as surrogate variables for glyphosate injury identification and to evaluate the combined use of Geostatistical methods and the VIs to assess...

3. Extending The Concept Of Precision Conservation To Restoration Of Rivers And StreamsComprehensive water quality management in watersheds involves management of upland and riparian environments. Efforts to optimize environmental performance of agriculture through field-scale precision conservation should be complemented with riparian restorations to enhance capacities to assimilate... M.

4. Apparent Electrical Conductivity Calibration In Semiarid Soils: Ion-pair CorrectionThe electromagnetic induction sensor (EM38DD) is a field proven portable sensor for rapid measurement of the apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) of soils. Calibration with the electrical conductivity of saturation paste extracts is the most widely used method to correlate ECa with the effective electrical conductivity (ECe). A drawback of this method is the formation of ion pairs in the high ionic strength saturated paste extracts, which effectively decreases the measured ECe, leading to the... X. Amakor, A.R.

5. Cognitive Radio In Precision AgricultureThis is an attempt to design a precision agriculture (PA) model, to control the required parameters in greenhouse with wireless sensor network (WSN). This proto type model of wireless sensor and actuators network is designed as per required parameters of available crops in a greenhouse. The design of the sensor node consists of sensors, a micro-controller and a low-powered radio module. Real-time data, enable the operators to characterise the operating parameters of the greenhouse and also... S.P. Nayse, D.D. Choudhari, V.M. Wadhai |
6. Application based Wireless Sensor Node for Underground Moisture Sensing for Precision AgricultureIn this paper, we are attempting to examine the WUWSN (wireless underground water sensor node*) for precision agriculture. The development and function of this sensor along with its software application is described in this paper. The equipment is under testing and the laboratory results and interpretations are discussed in this paper. This equipment is based on the new concept of sensing underground soil moisture. The sensor is cost effective sensor and has a long... S.P. Nayse, A.S. Mohammad |
7. Use Of Quality And Quantity Information Towards Evaluating The Importance Of Independent Variables In Yield PredictionYield predictions based on remotely sensed data are not always accurate. Adding meteorological and other data can help, but may also result in over-fitting. Working with American Crystal Sugar, we were able to demonstrate that the relevance of independent variables can be tested much more reliably when not only yield but also quality attributes are known, such as the sugar content and the sugar...

8. Window-based Regression Analysis of Field DataHigh-resolution satellite and areal imagery enables multi-scale analysis that has previously been impossible. We consider the task of localized linear regression and show that window-based techniques can return results at different length scales with very high efficiency. The ability of inspecting multiple length scales is important for distinguishing factors that vary over different length scales. For example, variations in fertilization are expected to occur on shorter length... A.M. Denton, H. Chavan, D.W. Franzen, J.F. Nowatzki |
9. Assessing Soybean Injury from Dicamba Using RGB and CIR Images Acquired on Small UAVsDicamba is an herbicide used for postemegence control of several broadleaf weeds in corn, grain sorghum, small grains, and non-cropland. Currently, dicamba-tolerant (DT) soybean and cotton are under development, which provide new options to combat weeds resistant to glyphosate, the most widely used herbicide. With the use of DT-trait cotton and soybean, off-target dicamba drift onto susceptible crops will become a concern. To relate soybean injury to different rates of dicamba applications,... Y.

10. Exploring Wireless Sensor Network Technology in Sustainable Okra Garden: A Comparative Analysis of Okra Grown in Different Fertilizer TreatmentsThe goal of this project was to explore commercial agricultural and irrigation sensor kits and to discern if the commercial wireless sensor network (WSN) is a viable tool for providing accurate real-time farm data at the nexus of food energy and water. The smart garden consists of two different varieties of Abelmoschus esculentus (okra) planted in raised beds, each grown under two different fertilizer treatments. Soil watermark sensors were programed to evaluate soil moisture and dictate irrigation... L. Burton, K. Jayachandran, S. Bhansali, Y. Mekonnen, A. Sarwat |
11. Next in Precision Agriculture: Detecting and Correcting Pixels with Machinery Track Line Within FarmsWith more satellites orbiting the earth, monitoring of fields using satellite data has become easier and ubiquitous. Frequent observations of a field can provide vital cues about field health and management practices. However, farm analytical statistics derived from such datasets often need modification to create practical applications. This paper focuses on the detection and removal of field machinery track line pixels to reduce their effect on satellite-based agronomic recommendation and product... G. Rathee, M. Sielenkemper |
12. Using Machine Vision to Build Field Maps of Forage Quality and the Need for Agriculture-specific Machine Vision NetworksMachine vision systems have truly come of age over the past decade. These networks are relatively simple to implement with systems such as YOLOv5 or the more recent YOLOv8. They are also relatively easy and computationally cheap to retrain to a custom data set, allowing for customization of these networks to new object detection and classification tasks. With this ease, it is no surprise that we are seeing an explosion of these networks and their application through all aspects of agriculture.... P. Nugent, J. Neupane |
