1. On-Farm Trials Using Precision Ag in Northeast LouisianaThe availability of yield monitors and precision application equipment on producers’ farms have made it much easier for researchers to take the results from experiment station trials and apply them to producers’ fields. Treatments/methods are applied in strips, by prescription, embedded plots or in combination. Fields are divided into zones for analyzing the harvest yield data. These can include soil type, soil Ec, or other criteria. Treatments are analyzed... D. Burns, D. Overstreet, D. Kruse, R. Frazier, D. Blanche |
2. Performance Evaluation Of A Prototype Variable Rate Sprayer For Spot- Application Of Agrochemicals In Wild Blueberry FieldsWild blueberry yields are highly dependent on agrochemicals for adequate weed control. The excessive use of agrochemicals with uniform application in significant bare spots and plant areas has resulted in increased cost of production. A cost-effective automated prototype variable rate (VR) sprayer was developed for spot-application (SA) of agrochemicals in a specific section of the sprayer boom where the weeds have been detected. The weed patches were mapped with an RTK-GPS... Q. Zaman, A.W. Schumann, D.C. Percival, T.J. Esau, S.M. Read |
3. Estimating Soil Moisture And Organic Matter Content Variabality Using Electromagnatic Induction MetodAbstract: Electromagnetic induction (EMI) methods are gaining popularity due to their non-destructive nature, rapid response and ease of integration into mobile platforms for assessment of the soil moisture content, water table depth, and salinity etc. The objective of this study was to estimate and map soil moisture content and organic matter content using DualEM....
