1. The Use Of A Multirotor And High-Resolution Imaging For Precision Horticulture In Chile: An Industry PerspectiveAs part of the prototype development of a yield forecasting and precision agriculture service for Chilean horticulture, we evaluated the use of an eight-rotor Mikrokopter for high-resolution aerial imaging to support ground-based surveys. Specific considerations for UAV and communications performance under Chilean conditions are windy conditions, limited space for take-off and landing in orchards, tree height and plantation density, and the presence of high metal contents in soils. We discuss... I. Zamora, D. Wulfsohn |
2. Experiences in the Development of Commercial Web-Based Data Engines to Support UK Growers Within an Industry-Academic PartnershipThe lifecycle of Precision Agriculture data begins the moment that the measurement is taken, after which it may pass through each multiple data processes until finally arriving as an output employed back in the production system. This flow can be hindered by the fact that many farm datasets have different spatial resolutions. This makes the process to aggregate or analyse multiple Precision Agriculture layers arduous and time consuming. Precision Decisions Ltd located in Yorkshire,... J. Taylor, Y. Shahar, P. James, C. Blacker, S. Leese, R. Sanderson, R. Kavanagh |
3. Mapping Soil Health and Grain Quality Variations Across a Corn Field in TexasSoil health is a key property of soils influencing grain yield and quality. Within-field mapping of soil health index and grain quality can help farmers and managers to adjust site-specific farm management decisions for economic benefits. A study was conducted to map within-field soil health and grain protein and oil content variations using apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) and terrain attributes as their predictors. Two hundred and two topsoil samples were analyzed to determine soil health... K. Adhikari, D.R. Smith, C. Hajda, P.R. Owens |
